Yaktrack Pro- Snow and Ice traction device (http://cozywinters.com/shop/yk-pro.html)

So I went to ***** sporting goods a couple of weeks ago and saw these. They looked great for throwing on icey teepads. I bought them and they helped my game out tramendously in icey conditions. They work great on any kinda teepad. A little ice or no ice. You dont have to ever worry about falling on your face after you throw. Check them out. I am a bricklayer laborer so I work in the snow and it works great for work also. I laugh at everyone trying to do their job and sliding on the ice and I just walk around like its 50 degrees out and no ice.

I too have seen these before, and almost bought them. I hesitated because I thought the concrete teepads would eventually chew through the rubber part that stretches over the edges of my shoes' soles.

Could you keep us updated on how these stand up to concrete teepads?

My home course has 24 out of 36 teepads concrete and it works fine if you have the right size yaktracks. My friend has size 13 and he bout the ones for 9-11 medium and they ripped on him. Now the snow is melting and I am hoping that the snow is over, but they will always be there for next winter.

Thanks!

I'll see if I can find them again. Another trick ppl around here do is (assuming the tread of your boots/shoes is thick enough) is to screw some 1/2" to 3/4" sheet metal screws into the rubber lugs on the bottom of your boots. Seems to work well, though I imagine it voids the warranty of your boots! :D

we did that for a little bit, but they eventually would fall out.

I looked at the Yaktracks and went with these:

I wanted to find these, but they didn't have them at my local store:

Regardless of which ones you get, I highly recommend a pair for anyone playing in icy/snowy conditions. I think the biggest help is mentally knowing I'm not going to slip, so I can fully commit to the throw.

Nice !!!!

The more spikes you install the longer they last. If you only have 10 or so they see so much force they rip right out. I used 30 per boot so that the force is distrubuted better and I have only lost 1 spike all winter...
