If you had a bad back, a screwed up shoulder, and a touchy achilles, you would prefer a cart also. Sometimes things aren't as cut and dried as people tend to think when they aren't on the other side of things. If you are able to walk, that's great. I CAN walk too... it just wears on me after say... 10 holes. What I get out of this walking thing is that quite a few of you look down on those of us that ride...like we are lesser golfers than you... and not really worthy of playing the game. I know that not all of you feel that way... but I'm betting a good percentage of you do.

I mean probably 90% of course here you can’t take a cart but if you think that’s a personal slight by an entire country you have at it. some things ain’t that deep homeboy. cksurfdude 1 Quote "C'mon be good" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall saying anything about it being a slight by any country... homeboy. Call it more like an observation over many years of the topic being discussed. I will bow out of this now.

Hoyoymac Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Got my Bag Boy Quad XL last week and have walked three nine hole rounds so far and loved it. I was happy that I played pretty well while walking and felt good. Worked up a sweat even in the colder weather we’ve had this past week. Was definitely tired and sore afterwards though. Trying to get in shape for a twice postponed golf trip to Ireland and Scotland scheduled for Mid June. We will be walking every day. I have requested a caddy each day so at least that will lighten the load a bit. I want to enjoy my golf trip and hopefully play well so have embarked on a golf fitness program which includes walking twice a week with the push cart. Will build up from 9 hole rounds to 18 hole round over the next few months to build up my stamina.

MacTourney Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Can't say enough good things about walking, and carrying, if possible, but been considering a Walker trolley for next year maybe. Will soon be reviewing that more closely. cksurfdude 1 Quote Good hand action comes from good body action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GolfSpy_APH Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 We are in walking only state for the courses right now so yes I walk a lot and here at least I have yet to see a course that is cart so we are walking carry only right now and when the course allows I have a push cart clic gear that I use!

tsheaffer23 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 (edited) I play approximately sixty 18 hole rounds a year and approximately twenty-five 9 hole rounds a year and walk at least 90% of the time. I've always enjoyed walking for any number of reasons. It's great exercise, you get more time to interact with your friends and it's especially beneficial if you're not playing well. It gives you time between shots to attempt to correct or diagnose what you're doing wrong. I've noticed that most times those walking generally play at a more acceptable pace than most who ride. Most who ride do not know proper golf etiquette and usually take longer than those walking. Walking also saves you quite a money each year. The average cart fee is $12-$15 and sometimes more. My Clicgear 4.0 push cart cost me $259.00 two years ago. With the amount of golf I play, I've saved hundreds of dollars just in the last two years and maybe more. A few of my friends have the Alphard V2 electric cart accessory which I would like to get this year to help me walk as many years as possible.

Not only is it walk only, it is walk and carry (no push carts allowed either) They do this in the off or winter season at the courses to help the grass I guess?

Ahhhh gotcha makes sense. They still let carts out here during the winter, path only (until jerks don’t abide). I’m suspended the push carts although they are heavy enough to mess the grass up so it does make sense to ixnay that too.

Davidbernstein1 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 We here at Links at Perry Cabin walk a lot. For some reason unknown to members, no golf carts for several months in winter. So only way to play is pushcart. Apparently cats coming back March 3 for only Friday, Saturday, Sunday. No explanation. cksurfdude 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mesadude Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Just wondering if there any walkers left. I recently returned to the joys of walking the course. I had forgotten how much I enjoyed the idea of leaving the cart behind and playing in a much more relaxed state of mind. Also, it seems to me that I play better when walking. Anyone else enjoy putting one foot in front of the other when playing?I walk every Wednesday at a walking 9-hole course here in Central Florida. Love walking golf! Most of the courses here are too large to walk though, so having a walking course nearby is nice.️Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy cksurfdude 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
