I don't bring it on the tee, but for the life of me I don't know why some courses (mine is one) that has an issue with the push cart going between the sand trap and the green, even through the rough.  I've asked why they don't want a push cart to go through there, and no one really knows.  The only response I get is that because it's what we've always done or they don't want the push cart to damage the lies around the green?  And then I go, like the mower that is mowing the rough that is much heavier and harder on the turf then  a four or three wheel push cart?  It really makes no sense to me most of the time.

I can remember when I was much younger (in my 20's), that the pro at the public course I was a member at would lose his mind if you put your carry bag on the tee.

This is pretty much standard in Europe: no carts on tee boxes and never take them between sand traps and greens, or on the fringe of any green. The only good reason I can think of for not pushing carts between bunkers and greens is that the area between them is often narrow, so it would channel all weight and traffic through this one spot and could result in damage to that particular area of turf. I don't generally feel impeded by this, you just have to look ahead and work out which path to take (similar to checking where the next tee is and leaving your cart on that side of the green).

And yet a 300 lb golfer is allowed to walk in this area.

The muni out here are open game .  No greens and traps. Even the fringe is ok. Heck the old timers and regulars park the cart next to the green like there parking at a strip mall.  

 Really don't see the damage 3 small wheels could do to a tee box that's worse then some hacker taking 8 practice swings and removing 3 cubic yards of grass and dirt from the tee box. 

 

 Don't know about most of you, but I play much better walking a course.
