5 Types of People That Should Own a Golf Cart

Posted in Golf Carts

Golf carts have shifted from a luxury for those that enjoy the game of golf to a useful device for people from many walks of life. While you will still see them on the golf course, there are many types of people that can enjoy the benefits of this affordable and reliable source of personal transportation. Here are five example of people that could benefit from owning a golf cart.

  1. Large property owners. If you own a large farm or plot of land, a golf cart is perfect for getting from one end of your property to another. Many working farms use golf carts to haul small loads to and from different outbuildings on the property.
  2. Outdoorsmen. Whether you hunt or just bird watch, if you love the outdoors, a rugged golf cart should be in your garage. With many options available for higher clearance or larger wheels, you can comfortably go on all-day treks through the woods in style.
  3. Medical issues. Worn out knees and hips can make walking long distances painful. Those with medical issues can enjoy the freedom of movement with their own golf cart to take with them wherever they go.
  4. Business owners. Businesses that encompass large areas like resorts, parks, apartment complexes and cemeteries need ways to transport their clients from point A to point B.
  5. Golfer. Of course, the avid golfer can always benefit from owning their own cart versus renting one every time they play.

If you fit into any of these categories, it may be time to consider investing in a new golf cart. You will be amazed at all the options available through your local dealer to customize your new cart for your needs.

Tips for Choosing a Utility Cart for a Sportsman

Posted in Golf Carts

If you want a new utility cart for hunting or fishing, you are going to want a cart that can handle more than what is on the average golf course. Backwoods trails are harder to navigate than the manicured green lawns of the course. If you are shopping for a utility cart for yourself or your spouse to take into the woods, here are some tips for getting the right cart for the active sportsman or sportswoman.

  • Electric versus gas. In most cases, rugged terraine is better handled by a gas engine than an electric cart. However, electric engines are quieter for those headed into the woods to hunt. You will also want to consider how far and how long you will be using the cart; you don’t want to get stuck in the woods because the batteries run out of their charge.
  • Tire tread. For rough, muddy roads or traveling off-road, you will need tires with deeper tread and a cart with higher clearance. Larger wheels with rugged traction tires are a must for some areas.
  • Weather. If you will be using your cart in cold, wet weather, you may want to invest in some weather protection. You will need a roof and weather enclosure, plus a heater can be needed after a long, cold day in the woods.
  • Weight capacity. If you plan on hunting large game and bringing back your prize with your cart, consider the load and towing capacity. Two or three hunters and a deer on the back will require a large load capacity!

Make sure to talk to your local dealer about how you will be using your new cart. They can help you find the right cart for your sporting needs.
