Do Golf Shoes Really Make that Much of a Differnece?

Spartan Golfer is asking:

I just got some golf shoes (my first pair ever) and when I am using them on the course, they don't seem to be making a diffence from my normal running shoes that I'd previously been using.

I was watching the Golf Channel one time and some old pro who always used metal spikes was forced to use soft spikes at some tournament. He said that he was literally slipping and sliding during his swing.

I'm not sure, do they?
I know that's what they're supposed to do, but I don't feel any difference between shoes.
