Default Does spiking the lawn help?

Our soil is full of clay so drainage is poor, i think i will try the
spike type to start with as the plug type may not be man enough.


Thought about constructing some sort of wooden shoe attachment with
nails in to walk and spike - not sure on how safe this would be though!


They do sell them. I would think that they are only for very small
lawns. My, just less than an acre, lawn would require a lot of walking.
