I have a pair of VIVO barefoot golf shoes I bought cheap back in the day (they are super ugly, but they fit and were cheap)… My main problem with them was I could feel when I stepped on pebbles and such.
In terms of actually play-ability, I didn’t notice a ton of difference from the height. The traction was pretty good, and that’s where I tend to notice the most difference in golf shoes… I’ve pretty much exclusively moved to spike shoes for this reason, as I like the grip.
