Robo Cart

Typhoon

We got a couple of these at work. Now I used to be a caddy from age 10 up through college. I’ve never owned a push/pull cart and only take a drive cart when forced.

But this thing... OMG... as I got halfway up the first fairway I said to myself,” I may never carry again.” There is a transmitter the size of a beeper that goes on the back of my belt. Turn it on and walk. Get to the ball, flip the toggle switch to off, get a club and go to you ball. It’s friggin awesome. It has a Galaxy Tab mounted on the front for course GPS. Comes with USB ports, cooler and a couple of cup holders. Never a hiccup with operation. We call it Tony Jr.

Nice post but you need to turn your camera 90°.

Super cool. I couldn't make myself spend the money, but I sure want one! How much do they weigh - easy enough to get on and off a pickup truck?

I went to a shop the other day with my dad to help him deal with his riding cart. They had one of these in a shop. Wow! 'SPENSIVE! I even mentioned that to the guy and he said, "Yeah, we don't really expect to sell this thing. But it sure generates alot of talk."

The “problem” is we rent it for the same price as a drive cart. One guy said to me, why would I walk if I can ride for the same price? I looked at him and said , “ so you get some exercise... one of the reasons you play golf, not just to sit on your ass and ride around.” He looked at me for a second and then said in a surprised tone , “ oh yeah.”

Not a lot of people have taken them. We have a lot of lazy people. I noticed today some putz put his cigar on the rubber pad for your cell phone... repeatedly of course so there are burn marks everywhere. Fuckin dopes.

Johnny, you rent it at the course. Same price as a drive cart. You couldn’t be lifting that in and out the car it weighs 185 lbs.

Firat night we had them I didn’t know about the neutral button to roll it inside so I had to “Farmers Carry” them inside, one in each hand.

Great to rent and be able to walk. Like having a caddy.

Typhoon I’d rock the shit out of that thing. I prefer that idea to riding all day, that said, I only ride when it’s required or a work function where it’s expected. Even then, I’m the guy grabbing a club or 2 and telling them to take the cart. I’d buy one.

I know right?! Friggin iPhone. My old android posted pics right side up... this fuckin thing....😠And I can’t be bothered going through another 84 steps to turn it... it should just work.

Maybe just hold the phone "landscape" right to left instead up.

I'd take one of those if I was playing by myself. If playing with somebody I just put my clubs on their cart and walk. Can't believe how much easier it is to walk without carrying or pushing a cart, plus you feel like a pro.

I walked the other day without a push cart, just carrying. I was surprised how much easier it was. Plus, I could hop on one of my partner's riding carts for the few long hauls from green to tee.

I was wondering when Typhoon said he was farmers walking two of those around. I know he's a strong dude but that sounded a bit much

Saw these at a course in Florida last winter. I think they rented them for a few $$$ cheaper than renting a
riding cart, but I didn't see anyone using them. Great exercise, I would think....

if it were a option (for me) I’d use it.

I think we’d get more people if, like you mentioned, they were less. Maybe between the $5 pull carts and the $20 drive cart.

Tons of people see them and ask me questions since I’m the outside guy. They all like the idea but seem afraid to try one.

kelco9

fatshot I love that bike idea! But you'd want an electric option. If you rode one of those around a few of the courses in my area without the electric boost option, you'd be exhausted just from the bike ride.

Typhoon

Yeah, I couldn’t do 185 in each hand at once. I only weigh 133.😂. Thx for turning the pics. I’ll have to try posting a landscaper pic like Ricochet mentioned.

Those are awesome! I would try one for sure.
