libertyman24 Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 i have been carying my bag for the past 3 years and i now have the clicgear push cart. i have not tried it yet on the course but should i just sell it and keep playing with my carry bag or will it be that beneficial to use the push cart?

Moecat Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 With the push cart you'll still at least get the walking exercise. Maybe it's just me, but I personally think you should at least try out a $200 product before deciding to sell it. Just my 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamo Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I have a push cart, but I carry. It is just a little more satisfying to hit a good shot, pick up the bag, and trudge to the green. Less so with the cart. Quote Click here to view all of my scores and stats for the 2010 golf season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tofudc5 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 If you spent good money to buy a good product such as the clicgear, then why wonder if you should use it or not? I don't want to come across as rude, but if you bought it, then use it. If not, then why buy it in the first place right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Saternus Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I'm a big fan of push carts. I bought a Bag Boy push cart 3 years ago when I was a "member" at a course that was unbearable to carry at (many half mile hikes from green to tee), and I found that I was much fresher at the end of a round when I pushed instead of carried. I really like the exercise of walking and I think there are advantages to be gained from walking (both enjoyment-wise and in terms of score), and I think the push cart gives you those things without the fatigue.

MmmmmmBuddy Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 That Clic Gear is a great cart, but if you walk, and like to carry, sell it and play a couple of rounds at a nice course, or better yet, trade it in on some new shoes!!!

Richie3Jack Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I've never used a push cart, but I think it's a good idea given my limited knowledge on how carrying clubs can effect your shoulders and neck. But, push carts are not as manly as carrying. I don't have to worry because we are carts only (have to with our hilly course). But I do miss walking. 3JACK Quote Author of Pro Golf Synopsis.

SPY VIP GolfSpy Dave Posted March 3, 2010 SPY VIP Share Posted March 3, 2010 I have a clicgear and I like it. Especially on hotter days. Pack more water without putting the weight on my back. However, for whatever reason I have felt like carrying for the past few rounds. That does make me glad that I have a Nike Sq Tour bag that is great to carry and has removable straps for the clicgear. If you do keep the cart, I would recommend getting the wheel cover and the spike brush attachment. The brush cleans the shoes quite well and the cover keeps the grass on the tires from getting into the trunk.

Addicted2Golf Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 An alternative to a push cart would be to get a very light weight carry bag - like the Superlight 3.5 by Sun Mountain, Izzo Scout, or the Ogio Vaporlite (although I'm not a huge fan of the stand system on that bag). I carry the Izzo Scout and my shoulders don't hurt at the end of a round as long as I don't load it down with a bunch of crap I don't need.

Matt Saternus Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Another advantage of push carts is that you can use a cart bag. One feature I really like that I only see on cart bags is a putter well (keeps the HC from getting smushed), and I also like the increased pocket space.

Andrew Bush Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Im 25 and no offense to older gentlemen I have a litle machoism in me i guess and want to carry to show that i can or whatever u want to say bad to say but i dont think carrying or pulling a cart going to wear me out anymore than the either of the two, i smoke so lets say im winded walking up hills anyway lol, but i sure when i do get a little older tha cart is there for me and my advice to anyone walking get the lightest bag and carry few things in it to make it light as possible Quote Andrew Bush da lefty of the forum.

mudfish Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 so far no one has mentioned the best part of a cart... a cup holder... so you don't need to set your beer on the ground and forget it (I've done it before) Quote My Bag:Driver - King F6+ 3 Wood - XR16Hybrids - ZH45Irons - JPX 850 ProWedges - Mac Daddy 2Putter - Spider Tour RedBag - Ogio Grom Stand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever, back was not sore after the round. I gave them the "I'm 40" finger and moved on. Irony is that I have carried more in the past year than ever before. Maybe it is the midlife thing. Gotta be a dumbass and prove I am still young. Like benching my body weight at the gym. The cart absolutely rules on beer-golf rounds...
