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.

    • Day 5: did a stack session. Did some slow swings between sets, working on hands down. 
    • So, I might have to get out of the C-Taper golf shaft. I have an older Mizuno with a KBS Tour shaft in. I was messing around with closing my eyes and feeling where the weight of the club is being felt at. The C-Taper was all in my fingers. I didn't feel much of anything of the club head or shaft of the club. It felt super heavy in my hands. The KBS Tour I could feel a weight further away from my hands, out in space.  The Mizuno weights 2 grams more, but is about 2-3 swing weights lighter than my current irons.  So, yea. I am thinking I might sense the club better with maybe a less stout golf shaft and maybe a lighter swing weight. Probably more to do with the golf shaft. I am thinking the feeling of the weight out in space is more of the shaft loading more easily. 
    • Day 25 (2 Apr 26) - Worked on green side chips at the course before helping with the school golf tournament today.  Worked on low flighted spinners to get solid hop and stops.  
    • Day 227 4-2 Chest and hip turn with flow drill. Trying to get a rhythm to the hip movement/less segmented feeling. 
    • A bit back at it tonight. I just wanted to add in the feel of a softer left arm through out the backswing. This helps me hinge the club. I make sure I am not bending it a ton, but not straightening it. It helps feel like I can keep the club in front of me more and lift the club up sooner.
