The FootJoy Tour Alpha is the most stable spiked shoe for 2024. If stability is your no. 1 priority, you won't find a shoe better suited to handle the torque and power of the golf swing.
The Tour Alpha is the most stable spiked golf shoe. Period.
The FootJoy Tour Alpha has fantastic traction.
Stability comes with tradeoffs. The Tour Alpha just isn’t very comfortable.

Great stable shoe. Ridiculously long narrow toe area. Cowboy boots think these are too pointy.
Compared to other FJ models, you might need to go a half/size down and wider. I’m usually a 12 2-3E. Hyperflex Boa is a 12W no problem. In this shoe, I’m in 11.5 XW and it’s still too long and too narrow. I’m breaking them in & trying a shoe stretcher. They are stable, but I’d pick something else for a “Walking 36 at Bandon,” kind of trip. They seem waterproof. Haven’t seriously tested that. They are remarkably cool as in letting your foot sweat and heat leave.
TL;DR: Great shoe. Try before you buy, and you might need to size down.
