Guide To Buy Golf Carts and Trolleys

Saturday, March 13th, 2010

Getting serious about your game of golf means that you will spend a lot of time on the course, but that does not mean that you will want to carry around thirty pounds of golf clubs and gear every time you step onto the course. If you are trying to avoid spending a few thousand dollars on a golf cart, and you want to make your game less stressful on your back and arms, then you can find golf carts and trolleys that will do all of the carrying for you.

Remote Electric Trolley

Of all of the golf carts and trolleys that are available, the remote controlled electric trolley is the easiest for you to use. With normal electric golf trolleys, you need to guide the caddy with your hand as you walk along. With a remote controlled trolley, all you need to do it point and click to move your clubs to the next hole.

The main benefit of both of these types of trolley is that you will not have to bend or stoop to move your clubs, and you will not have to carry all of that weight on your back. Electrical trolleys are especially helpful when you golf seasonally, and you simply don’t have the energy to get through that first round of golf when the weather warms up.

Push Trolley

Push golf trolleys are also very helpful when you do not want to carry the weight of your clubs on your back. These golf carts and trolleys also come with all terrain wheels, so that you will not have to worry about getting stuck when the weather turns rainy and the seventh hole turns to mud and rock, or doing any damage to the course.

Obviously, the push golf trolley is going to be less costly, so you can save a little money as long as you are willing to exert a little more effort on the course. Since you are already getting plenty of exercise by walking through the eighteen holes, you may want to weigh your options carefully before you decide.

Golf Ball Used And Saving Your Money

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

If you golf, chances are you’ve gone through your share of balls. They seem to get lost all the time, and the costs mount quickly. Even the best golfers routinely lose balls, and for the average duffer, these “misplaced” golf balls can quickly become an expensive addition to the golf outing.

Used golf balls that are in great condition and ready to play can be purchased in bulk over the internet. There are many companies that sell used balls, usually in dozens. Different companies have different grading systems but they are all relatively similar.

Most sites describe some sort of quality assurance sorting, so that the balls are graded. Balls are sorted into various categories and sold by the dozen.

Top grade used golf balls are often called Grade A or Grade 1, one or two sites listed them as Grade AAA. They are usually described as like new. Many customers have commented that these balls are often indistinguishable from the new ones, and can be subsequently lost just as quickly as those right out of the sleeve. These are usually described as near perfect with a slight blemish or mark.

Slightly less perfect balls are Grade B or Grade 2. These have more than one mark, but play like new. Accordingly, the price is a bit less than the near perfect ones.

Finally, there is a third grade called Grade C or 3. Occasionally the site will go ahead and call them range balls. These balls are more used, with several marks and blemishes, but would be suitable for range play or practice rounds. These are even less expensive than the others.

Make sure that your site specifies that there are no “X out” or manufacturer rejects. You should be receiving slightly used, but good balls. Also, you may want to inquire if the site you have chosen allows water balls. I’d avoid these if possible.

Check with your local golf club as well. Sometimes local clubs hold sales of used balls to clear their inventories as well. You may be able to buy back some of the balls you lost last season!

Finally, compare price and shipping costs on your used golf balls. Most shipping charges seem to run between $5.95 per dozen and $7.95 per dozen, but verify in advance. You should also be able to get a significant shipping discount for orders of more than one dozen.

Shopping for used golf balls can be a great way to cut the expenses of your golfing habit. Before you hit the links, try purchasing some practice balls you won’t mind losing!
