I do alot of walking when I golf, and the $30 cheap plastic cart I've been using for 2 years just isnt cutting it anymore. I'd like to invest in a nice 3 wheel push/pull cart. My budget is about $150. Looking on ebay, I can get a full blown bells and whistle cart with seat, etc for $140, or a lighter cart for $125. anyone have any personal favorites?

I've been wanting a push cart for a few weeks but I'm trying to hold off until winter when I'm hoping some will go on clearance. But in the meantime, if you have the patience to wait a couple days for the right auction on ebay, I've seen new Sun Mountain Speed Carts (V1) go for 140-150+shipping on there, and used in real good condition for 120-130ish. I've also seen some clicgear 3.0's go in the low 160's. From everywhere I've looked, those are your best bets if you have 150 to spend.

Also, rockbottomgolf.com has the clicgear 3.0's for 189, and I think they're doing free shipping this weekend. So while that's considerably more than 150, it's the cheapest you'd find it outside of ebay.

FWIW Clicgear may still have reconditioned units for 139 bucks.

I have two Clicgears and really like them. I'd rather walk with one of them instead of riding in a cart.

ive got the clicgear 2.0 and I like it, although i dont have experience with any other cart. Im sure the Sunmountain cart is just as good if not better. I know it has air filled wheels where the clicgear doesnt, so it might be a little different

I picked up Sun Mountain's Speed Cart V1 last year and couldn't be happier with it. I don't know if anything better has come out since, but I exhaustively researched all of the major offerings at the time and it was definitely the most solid option.

If you look at any online reviews, don't pay attention to people saying that the tires go flat. That may have been a problem with past models, but the current Speed Carts have high quality solid foam wheels. It even has an optional seat attachment.

One other thing to mention before you buy (especially if you have a stand bag) . . .

Go to a golf mega-store, find the bag you have, and place it on the demo of push cart you are thinking about purchasing. Certain stand bags will sit better in some push carts than others. For what it's worth, my Titleist Lightweight Stand Bag fits in the Speed Cart V1 perfectly.

I was searching for a pull cart for over a month. I finally ended up buying the Tour Trek 1 click collapsible cart from Golfsmith. I got it for $99. It was on sale for $119 and had a $20 off coupon. Great cart built for the avid golf walker and for a stand bag. If you are looking to get a pull cart for cheap I would recommend the Tour Trek. It is only $120 now and here is 15% percent free shipping code for Golsmith website jxt012cvn. Good luck and hope this helps.

    • I'll be honest, the only reason the 2 iron was in my bag is because I tend to hit the ball into the tree's fairly often. And I was using it to help me keep the ball very low to get out of the tree's while avoiding getting much loft to hit branches. I guess I can drop the 3H as well. Would it be wise to give a higher loft fairway wood a try as well, something like a 26 degree? I believe there is only one golf shop where I live that has a golf simulator and trainer. I see they offer free fitting with a purchase from the fitter. I'll have to check how much they charge without a purchase, I've read a few stories about fitters on this forum that just wanted to sell the person the most expensive clubs and that kind of deters me a bit. They do offer lessons as well. I'll give them a call and ask them a bit more about these services. Thank you!
    • Here is a description of all the programs:  Programs & Training Programs and Training TheStack is a personal swing-speed trainer for golfers. Initially, each golfer is piloted through a series of swing speed tests to generate a force-velocity profile of their current swing. Qualitative data is... I think cruiser is meant for maintaining speed and flex can do more than that. But I'm just basing that on the descriptions that I linked.  
    • Both @DaveP043 and I play in our interclub matches every year, and have been team Captains as well.  There are always a few courses, mine is one, that win a lot of matches (we've won twice in the last 7 years), and we've been labeled as sandbaggers.  However, I really think that our course was rated too low (our greens just never seemed to get factored in enough), and thus our Handicaps were always a stroke or maybe 2 above, what they would've been if the course was rated higher.  And then when we went and played other courses, their slope and rating were much higher than ours, and sometimes I would get a 2 or 3 stroke bump on top of that.  It was definitely an advantage.  However, this past year, our course was rated again and the slope has gone up, so we'll see if we continue to have the same benefit.  Season starts this Sunday for us.

    • I would not do anything until I met with an instructor and got your swing looked at. There are some obvious better club options out there though. Spend 50 bucks on a lesson, practice and start piecing together a bag that works for you. Enjoy the journey.
