Electric Golf Trolley Advice

[denislawsbackheel]

Had a new hip in February.
Played golf for two years driving a buggy.
Today I hired a golf trolley off the club and played 18.
First time I’d walked a round in years.
Anyone got any recommendations around £400.
I can manage a round if I don’t have a trolley to pull.
I play once a week, socially for the craic mainly, no official handicap.

I've always used a Powakaddy. £400 will get you a Powakaddy but will probably come with a lead acid battery. Much better to get a trolley with a lithium battery. I bought a back up as new spare trolley off Facebook for £150 included spare winter wheels which would cost £90 and umbrella holder £20 no battery but I already had one.

Motocaddy seem to be the best these days. If you are looking new and don’t want all the GPS etc then the basic one is about £500.
Lithium batteries are better as they take next to no time to charge up and are light.
If you only play socially once a week and aren’t bothered about buying a 2nd hand one then I’m sure you will be able to pick up a decent used trolley with lithium battery for £300 / £400.
Walking will be great for your new hip and fitness in general. If you’ve walked 18 today it will only get easier. Good luck and happy golfing.

Gokart trolleys have a really good reliability and customer service reputation slightly over £400 with lithium battery but worth it.
Wife has one and it's been very good.

I have a Powakaddy & charger you can have but no battery. Battery would be about £100 from golf trolley fella in a- o - m, not lithium though

It's really strange to Watch the remote controlled trollies moving around by themselves.

Don’t get the cheap Ben Sayers one, false economy. Second hand motocaddy or powacaddy if you can’t stretch to the basic models new.

I have the motocaddy s1, suits my artificial hip and knee just fine

Pleasure meeting Daveyhulme blue this evening.
Top man, a proper blue who was there when City were in the doldrums and like me is just enjoying the ride.
