I am currently looking to buy a golf bag cart. Some local shops have some great deals going on right now and I want to take advantage. However, I am not sure as to whether or not I want a push or a pull cart. Would anyone recommend one over the other?

Also, are there any definitive advantages to paying more for a cart? Based on my assumptions, price shouldn’t really be a factor as they all seem to serve the same purpose. Would a $90 model really "out-perform" a $40 one? Thanks in advance.

I'm shopping for the same thing and will definitely be getting a three wheel push cart over a pull cart. The three wheels is way easier on your back and is not awkward to get around the course. I've used the pull carts quite a bit and don't really like them much. From the testimonies I've heard from users the push carts are the way to go.

Can't speak to the quality difference.

I've decided to go with a BagBoy:

M-310

From everything I've read, this seems to be a good, economical way to go. Am I making a bad choice?

That would have been my choice early on, but I am definitely saving up for a three wheel cart as they are way easier on your back, have more room for balls, tees, snack, water etc... The biggest thing for me is I'll feel better after 18 holes of pushing than dragging a cart.

Just my 2 cents

My friend has a 3-wheel push cart. He actually recommended that I find a good pull cart, because his seems like a pain to use, needing to apply the brake all the time to prevent rolling (which it frequently does), to name one annoyance.

I can always purchase the add-on wheel in the future, in order to turn the M-310 into a push cart.

I decided to get the BagBoy LT-450, instead. I was in Dick's and decided to upgrade. After using a coupon and a gift card, I got the $80 cart for $42. Not bad. I used it today for 9 holes and loved it. I look forward to using it tomorrow morning. Great deal on a great cart

ah the joy of the "search" button

Alright guys..I played yesterday and humped my PING L7, as usual, for a round. Think I'm gettin old..I'm sore. Thin "Srow"asked if push is better than or not compared to a pull. Not sure which site it was but they said the push was better because it doesn't fatigue the muscle as a pull cart would..I guess pushing is better than pulling when it comes to your swing muscles.

Anyway..still looking over to see if I should get the trike in BagBoy or SunMountain..think the Bagboy is a little cheaper. I really don't want to spend too much more than $100.

    • The criticisms are starting already 🤣 U.S. Open pro criticizes Shinnecock green conditions: 'Bumpy' After playing his first practice round at the 2026 U.S. Open, Michael Kim offered a less-than-glowing review of Shinnecock's "bumpy" greens.   The sand, I don't care about that. If the greens didn't come back as well for latest aerification, that would be a bit of a blunder on Shinnecock I think.   
    • Well, if your frame of reference spins twice during the swing, then Bryson's ab/adduction is more like 780 degrees so there! (Yes I'm being silly, but not sure it's any sillier than what your pal Andy is doing...)
    • Update: Brandon Sorsby has decided to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft. He will not play for Texas Tech in the upcoming season.  From my perspective, I think he did the right thing. I hope he gets the correct help for his gambling addiction. I say the right thing, because I would be worried that the stress from all of this now and throughout the entire year would not be beneficial towards his mental health.  If an NFL team picks him up, then there really isn't any pressure for him to play immediately. He can work on himself and his game for the NFL.  From Texas Tech,  "Texas Tech will continue to provide the support and recovery resources Brendan requires on this journey. Furthermore, Texas Tech will not seek return of any amounts already paid to Brendan through his NIL agreements with the University," Campbell wrote. "We wish our best to Brendan, and we offer our prayers to him and his family as he chases his dreams at the next level. This has been an unbelievably painful experience for us all, but I know that his true, underlying character and lessons learned through this experience will ultimately bring him great success on the field of play and in life." Which, I also the right thing to do.   
    • So, something I noticed yesterday at the range. My eyes and visualization of what the ball needs to do is way off. I put up an alignment stick about 10 yards down range. My initial thought was, "Oh crap". Even while wearing prescription sunglasses, and I know I am hitting it towards the sun, I couldn't pick up where the ball was at all. 
    • Oh man. As you can see above, Manavian mocked me for not realizing they were getting the 130° from BOTH shoulders. Apparently, though, Manavian is also wrong, as Andy said I was lying when I cited what Manavian had written: The next thing Andy says that's both accurate and clearly stated will be the first. I replied to that post with something like: Tell Manavian who said "only counting the abduction/adduction of one shoulder rather than 2." One of the issues with “bad” information is that y’all can’t even get on the same page. You've not shown that Bryson has 130° range of motion in either shoulder separately P1 to P7. I’ve shown the numbers. You’ve name-called and just said “nuh uh” repeatedly. Did you see the AMG IG video? Of course you have. Wrapping your head around the distance the shoulder travels yet, Andy? Andy later commented to explain how he got his range of motion number (apologies to whoever @iacac and @icaca are on Instagram, who are going to be wondering just what in the hell they've gotten themselves into). Oh boy. Adding the numbers in one direction and then adding them again going back is not a "range" of motion. If I can bend my knees 140°, I don't claim to have 280° range of motion because I have two knees nor because I can also extend my knees 140° after bending them. Bryson (with a driver, again — I used his iron swing) abducts about 65° (and bends his elbow a ton) with the driver. Then he adducts 50… and then another 15°… to end up right back where he started. This is exactly the equivalent of saying that I bend my knees 140° and then straighten them, creating a range of 280°. It's so silly I don't even have much of a response. It falls down completely on its own. It doesn't need even a nudge.
