.... I just think this sort of thing is stupid and I question whether a lot of courses would even allow them to be used. I have to laugh when i see people with the remote control push carts.... I mean really, can't even be bothered to push the cart?

Seems pricey. But I'd rather use it than a golf cart.  I don't love the golf cart experience.  I usually walk, so I like the ability to go straight to my ball every time.

Those look ****ing sweet I don't care who you are.  Talk about getting into a groove with your rhythm.  Can you image hitting a pure 160 yd shot into the flag and then hopping on a ****ing skateboard and cruising down the fairway like a boss.  Wish they weren't 5k though.

As a former skater I'd be all over it. Especially if courses that require carts allow them off path on path only holes. Could golf and get rad at the same time.

I would never buy one, but I'd sure as hell rent one if the course had it!

I wonder how a course's insurance would change if they offered these... I could just imagine someone breaking their arm or shoulder falling onto a tree root or something.

With the amount of alcohol consumed by most guys see on the course these would be super dangerous

Got one of the remote control push cards a couple of weeks ago....LOVE IT!

Could have gotten a push cart, but this one seems like more fun.

I would love the skateboard style card, but oh the injuries that are going to happen as I try to use the edges of the bunkers as ramps!

Looks like a dumb gimmick to me.  No back seat on the chair, no roof/windshield in case it rains, you've got 16 wheels trampling the grass instead of 8, doesn't look particularly stable, and you could probably build one yourself for 1/3 the price.  Sorry, just not impressed at all.

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.
