Remote Controlled Electric Golf Push Carts Buyer’s Guide

In this guide, we’re going to answer several common questions that come with buying and owning one of these electric trolleys. This way, you’ll be able to decide whether or not this is a sound investment for you to help improve your golf game.

1. What is an Electric Golf Trolley?

Simply put, an electric golf trolley is an electric golf cart that is designed to hold your golf bag. It’s also designed to carry your golf clubs and other miscellaneous golfing equipment like a scorecard, gloves, balls, umbrellas, and more.

Electric golf trolleys (or push carts) come with a battery that allows it to move independently, and many of these trolleys have remote controls for operating at a distance. These remotes allow you to move the golf trolley in a variety of directions, and they usually have pause or stop buttons. The remote controlled operation eliminates the need for an actual caddy or manual push cart and it allows the golfers to concentrate more fully on their golf game.

2. How Does an Electric Golf Trolley Work?

Electric golf trolleys come with an electrical system that is hardwired to a battery. The battery is what powers the motors that run the trolley. Most modern electric golf carts are powered by dual motors that are what gets the electric golf push cart to run and follow you as you play your round of golf. The batteries are rechargeable, which will require you to purchase a battery charger. Most trolleys come with two batteries for more power.

The batteries are also one of the most expensive components of an electric golf cart. Here is an excellent guide on maintaining and extending the life of your electric golf cart’s batteries.

The remote allows you to control the golf cart from a distance. The remote lets you set the speed that the trolley moves and there are usually several speed settings. The remote also lets you remotely direct your trolley to move forward, backward, left, and right quickly and easily.

3. What Benefits Come with Using a Remote Controlled Electric Golf Cart?

Arguably one of the biggest benefits that come with using these types of golf carts is the convenience factor. Since these golf carts propel themselves forward, they eliminate the need to have a physical caddy with you. You also have fewer worries about carrying your clubs when you play. These remote golf push carts also allow you to walk the course without having to carry your clubs, which provides extra cardiovascular benefits.

Other benefits include being able to concentrate fully on your golf game. Using an electric golf trolley takes the strain off of your body because you won’t have to carry heavy equipment around. Finally, it allows you to conserve energy and reduce your overall feelings of fatigue.

4. Who Benefits the Most From Using an Electric Golf Cart That Follows You?

Everyone can benefit from having an electric golf cart. They’re great for anyone who wants to improve their golf game and concentrate more fully when they play. If you routinely play very hilly courses, electric trolleys can help reduce the strain on your body from carrying or pushing your clubs using a manual cart.

Seniors or anyone who has ongoing back problems or problems with muscle strains can benefit from these types of trolleys because you’re not worried about lifting and carrying pounds of gear on your back. Finally, anyone who routinely brings extra items with them and needs ways to carry them can benefit from having one of these carts.

5. Why Should You Consider Buying an Electric Golf Trolley?

If you’re on the fence about buying an electric golf cart, here are a few things to consider. They’re an excellent long-term investment. They can cost more at first, but they can last for decades with proper care.

They’re also great for rough courses that would put a lot of strain on your back and shoulder muscles if you were carrying or pulling a manual cart. You need these muscles to swing your golf club, so it’s a good idea to consider buying one if you want to protect your back. If you want to concentrate on and potentially improve your golf game, an electric golf trolley can help as well.

6. How User-Friendly are Electric Golf Push Carts

Most electric golf trolleys are relatively easy to operate with their remotes. The remotes typically come with directional buttons that let you move your trolley from point A to point B with few problems. Most remotes feature on and off buttons that are oversized and, usually, in different colors.

There can be a slight learning curve with the remote as you learn to set your trolley’s speed and direction. It may also take a few tries until you understand how precise your directional controls are and you have to learn to find the maximum range for your trolley. However, these carts come designed to be relatively simple to operate for beginners or someone who has never used a remote controlled trolley before.
