I have a friend that likes to walk the course - even if it's not that walkable. So he'll sit in the electric cart and hold his push cart behind us. It's led to some fun experiences like crashing and running over his clubs. It cost him a putter.

I'm wondering if anyone has actually made such a push cart. One that can be fastened and towed.

I use old Taylor Made clubs from eBay and golf shops.

It really doesn't sound like he likes to walk the course at all....

Actually he does. But some of the courses we play are only partially walkable due to hills and distance .

If it's a three wheeler just put the front wheel in back of the buggy, where the bags normally sit,  and use your bag's shoulder strap to secure it.

I am sure the golf course is real happy about that.  So, he is not paying a cart fee but he is still riding?

Yup. Sounds like the guy likes to ride but just isn't big on actually paying for the cart he is using. Sounds like a class act.

I think it's more likely that the guy enjoys walking the golf holes, but it's possible there is some decent distance or some difficult terrain in between holes. That's where he jumps in for a ride from the previous green to the next tee?

No he pays the usual. I'm usually reserving a 4 some on Golfzing or Golfnow with 2 shared carts included.Otherwise there wouldn't be a cart for him to share.

You got it. I guess I didn't do a good job of setting up this question.

It wasn't easy.  Not sure I remember exactly but I think they flying off to he side at a 45 degree angle making it possible.

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
