Golf Trolleys - which one to choose?
What Trolley Should I Choose?
When it comes to buying a new golf trolley, it can feel like a bit of a mine field with many options to choose from including 2 wheel, 3 wheel, push or pull, manual or electric! We thought it would be useful to discuss the different options to help you decide what you need.
Manual Trolleys - these require you to either pull or push. 2 wheel golf trolleys are pulled and 3 wheel golf trolleys are pushed around the golf course. 2 wheel trolleys are generally more compact, but do come in different sizes from ultra compact to medium sizes. They have less features, 2 wheels, bag holder, frame, handle and scorecard holder, so these are the lighter products on the market
3 wheel trolleys are bigger overall and have a front wheel. The handle is wider and the hight can be adjusted, it will have a break to prevent it rolling down a hill, but we always recommend you park your trolley horizontal to the slope whilst you are taking your shot. 3 wheel trolleys usually come with extra features including a ball and phone holder.
Try adding a pair of Fairway Hoppas to your trolley to make it lighter to push or pull and they will also help to protect your golf course during the winter.
Electric trolleys are bigger and heavier, but that is mostly due to the battery. Make sure you understand how many holes your wnat to play to determine the size of battery you will need
