Hello I am looking at buying a new golf trolley.  I have a tour bag and the main problem I have is finding one that is big enough for it to fit.  That is my main concern. I don't want to spend a lot so an electrical trolley is out of the question.  Anyone have any recommendations? I seen that this gets good reviews but don't know if its big enough http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003V4XUI6/ref=s9_simh_gw_p200_d0_i2?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf;_rd_s=center-2&pf;_rd_r=0Q852GSKH1KV5X3X3DDD&pf;_rd_t=101&pf;_rd_p=317828027&pf;_rd_i=468294

My 2 cents......pay a little extra for a heavy duty model that will last for many years.  ........especially if you play regularly!! When I used to walk, I had to replace it every year!  I finally paid extra for a heavy-duty Bagboy cart and it has over 5,000 miles on it now.   I no longer walk so my bagboy outlasted my walking days....LOL

If you buy a cheap one, the tubing will fail if you put any real mileage on it.  I am biased towards BagBoy carts....

Also, avoid that cheap lightweight square tubing!!  I've never heard of Bullet, so I can't really comment on it's durability.

If I was in the market for a 3 wheel pushcart, this would be my choice............

I have a regular cart bag and I am on my 2nd Bag Boy.  The first one was 4 years old and working fine, until I backed over it with my car.  My new one is a Bag Boy Quad but to tell the truth, I liked the 3 wheel version better.

Loyalty above all else, except honor.

Get a Clicgear and a cart bag.

Lose the tour bag. They are designed to be carried by a caddy.

Tour bags are not for amateurs.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

A caddy was the first thing that came to my mind too. I have an image in my head.

Seriously, if you go staff, go heavy duty.

Lose the huge cart bag...not necessary. I am buying the new Sun Mountain SV1 Speed Cart with the new Sync bag to match. I have had the original version Speed Cart since it came out. It is just wearing out now after ten(?) years.

You use a pull cart? I don't really care what people do to get their clubs from A to B, but for me personally pull carts are on par with power carts. I might use one when I get old (probably will) but until then walking and carrying makes this hobby seem more like an actual sport. Whatever floats your boat.

I was being a smarty pants!! I won't lie. I'll admit to drooling over a couple push carts at Golf Town. 9 holes is easy peasy, and 18 at my own pace is easy (ish), but when the rounds bog down due to slow play or it's a course designed around residences, oh man a push cart would be sweet!!

I carried into my late 50s then the act of tilting my spine to hike the clubs onto my shoulders got to my lower back...an old skiing injury methinks. Anyway I was to the point of ordering one of those electric carts when the original Sun Mountain push cart came out. Tried it and loved it without all the fuss of charging batteries and tear down etc. Been happy ever since. Now the thing is wearing out so I will pick up a new cart with bag to match this year. Just money right!?

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By WillieT ·

      From what I’ve read, it was in the manufacturing process and how the covers were nicking pretty easy.  He has had to resource his factory as the one used earlier is now a TM owned facility.  Initial reports seem to indicate the redesign is going to be a winner…

      Day 129: 5/4/24 Stack training but could not certify my warmup speed. Dealing with a pulled neck muscle. Chips and pitches at a local course for about 15 minutes.

      At What Distance do Your Pull Our Your Range Finder?

      By mchepp ·

      Typically less than 50. I find this can be affected by the "CART" signs on a given course. I don't like taking my rangefinder out of the cart and carrying it around to the green. I am very fearful I will leave it somewhere.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By JetFan1983 ·

      First ever holed out greenside bunker shot! It's crazy it took this long to finally get one during a round, but the cold streak is officially over. Hole 6 on the Palmer Course at PGAN. I hit my driver like 225 into a really stiff wind, then worm burned a hybrid into the bunker. I was about I dunno, 40-45 feet away. Birdie! Let's go! The red Xs the approximate location of each shot.  Really fun!!
