Walking cart recommendations

I’ll piggy back off of this. I’ve been thinking about walking with a pushcart vs riding. Does pace of play slow down a lot? My group does not want to walk but I would like to get the extra exercise. Could I realistically play with 2 others riding if I’m walking?

This is the one I have and I walk ALOT. Going on 4 years and the only issue I had had is the ubmrella holder broke. Okay, I broke it.


I have a few friends that bought the rear wheel adapter to make it remote controllable rather than pushing and I'm not gonna lie....I'm kinda jealous

I bought a new Clicgear 4.0 about 8 months ago. Zero complaints thus far and I feel like I play better walking vs riding.

I have been a walker my entire golfing life. I'm currently age 43. I have never held up anyone playing in a cart. The fact you get to walk straight to your ball and prepare to hit as fast as you want makes it easy. You dont get slowed down by others except for the green and that applies to riders anyway. 4 regular golfers walking is just about the same pace as 4 regular golfers in 2 carts. 4 regular golfers in 4 carts will be faster than 4 walkers. Fast golfers are still fast golfers when they walk. Slow golfers are still slow golfers when they ride.

It also seems easier to find balls when walking if you are good at watching your ball down. You just get the line to the landing spot and walk until you get to it. When you ride in a cart, you can't just go straight to where your ball was meaning you have to have a good handle on the distance it went and the line.

If it is a cart-path-only day, walking is faster than riding in a cart.

Walking with a push cart is my favorite way to play. You can play just as fast as a cart most of the time. When it is cart path only you can play significantly faster with a push cart. It is great to get steps in and I tend to play much better when I am using mine.

I have Caddytek Lite 1. The only thing I wish it did was have the brake on the handle vs stepping on the wheel lock gizmo.

Wheel lock doesn't bother me. Rarely use it. Turn cart sideways on a side hill. No problems.

I walk about 1/2 the time. Some older dudes at my club that I play with sometimes all walk and I felt like a douche being a younger guy in good shape and being the only one riding in a cart I almost certainly play better when I walk because you are thinking about your shot a lot more and you're reading the slop of the green more as you walk up.

I got the Bag Boy Compact 3 from Dicks. A little over $219. I really like it. Collapsible and an easy push.





One of the older guys I play with has the motorized one and it's pretty sweet. I'll eventually get one of those but for now the Bag Boy is perfectly fine. Walk 10 or so rounds and it pays for itself.
