How much should I pay for a Golf Trolley

So how do you go about choosing between a push and an electric trolley? It can be hard, because there are many factors to consider.

The first is price. If you’re not willing to invest heavily in your trolley, a push trolley might be the better option for you. They start at around £90 whereas electric trolleys usually start at around five times that.

Push trolleys are powered manually, and therefore tend to work best on flatter courses. That said, the wheel bearings are so sophisticated these days they tend to glide seamlessly along the fairway and with your arm out in front of you, the strain on your body is limited. But it is a strain nonetheless and one could argue this energy would be better conserved for the back nine of your round. If you had an electric trolley, this would certainly be the case. Electric trolleys are also more fun to use and come with many useful features like an automatic distance function, which you can set off to go to the next tee while you putt out, a USB charging port for your GPS device, a lost ball timer and many others.

Opt for a push trolley, and you’ll likely get a trolley that folds down much smaller than an electric trolley, fitting in some of the smallest car boots around. They’re often quicker to put together and don’t come with the added stress of having to charge a battery.

What are the Pros of an electric trolley

• Battery powered – you still get the exercise but not the strain on your body
• Come with additional features like automatic distance and shot measurement
• Electric trolleys are more receptive to larger golf bags that offer more storage
• Excellent for hilly courses
• Save valuable energy for the last few holes of a round
• Fun to use

Hopefully our staff can assist you in making this important decision. Whichever route you go down, your enjoyment level is sure to go up and you’ll find the added features that come on the handle units – like ball, drinks and scorecard holders – especially useful. And of course with us having a good selection in stock you will be able to come in and have a proper look rather than relying on pictures.
