Trolleys

Push, electric and remote-follow — saving your legs without emptying your wallet.

Opinion

Ride-everywhere culture has convinced a generation of golfers that a cart is a convenience rather than a compromise.

Push vs electric trolley: which is actually worth it?

One saves your back for not much money; the other saves your legs for rather more. How to spend wisely on carrying nothing.

Opinion

An electric trolley is the best money I've spent on golf

Not the clubs, not the gadgets. The thing that made me enjoy walking 18 again was the least glamorous purchase in the bag.

Motocaddy M5 GPS review: the electric trolley that does the thinking

GPS course maps, downhill control and a battery that shrugs off 36 holes — the do-it-all electric trolley most walkers should buy first.
