Abstract: One golf shoe of a pair of golf shoes worn by a golfer is designed to aid the golfer to take a strong, braced stance with his right foot if he is a right-handed golfer or with his left foot if he is a left-handed golfer. This is accomplished by making the spikes on the outer edge or periphery of the shoe longer than the other spikes on the same shoe and on the other shoe. The spikes may also or alternatively be thicker for resistance to penetration into the ground or for added strength. The spikes may also be broader on the bottom or elsewhere to prevent too much penetration into the grass or dirt.
