Daughter and I use both (plus she uses a course planner when playing in comps) - Hand held GPS and a decent range finder

Yes, saw that - daughter currently plays Chrome Tour X so the X version will be great for her and the standard model with either be great for me (her old dad) or for her to use as a slightly softer ball during winter. There's always quite a debate about about X versions, etc but even for my 14...

Snainton Golf have got Mizuno RB Tour / Tour X 2 packs on sale for £1.99 - that has to be pretty good for a decent ball for £1 each https://www.snaintongolf.co.uk/mizuno-rb-tour-rb-tour-x-golf-balls-2-ball-pack

I can add a little to this. My daughter is just 13 and has been competing at various Junior events since she was 9. At this swingspeed (daughter is now up to about 90mph with the driver) she found that the Bridgestone E12's were a brilliant ball - we still have them in the practice bag for...

Daughter has the Putt Aim laser - it works well for her. I'm sure that there are other lasers out there that do similar, but this is one that doesn't attach to the club, is really well made (not plastic) and projects a really clear green laser. It "can" work outside on the putting green, but...

Cradoc, just up the road is a nicer course or if you want something that drains well, Llandrindod Wells 30/40 mins away is a good course.

I've got the Big Max Hybrid bag - to be honest, I don't like it. It "sort of does" both jobs, but it's a bit heavy to carry all the time, is "quite" good on a trolley, but has 14 dividers which I find a bit of a pain and doesn't have overly generous storage. I've picked up the Lynx waterproof...

I managed to buy one from the pre used site. Have to say that I'm really pleased with it and it came in excellent condition, with a new battery for a lot less than buying it brand new. Had the same difficulties with the website and ended up phoning them to order.

It's not a bad 9 holer - there are a few interesting holes St Idloes in Llanidloes is also a good option - it's in excellent condition with good greens Lakeside at Garthmyl is also a good short track

My daughter uses Zach Gould Golf. He has a great online app and he's super easy to communicate with personally via his messaging section of the app. It's a really good golf specific program and he's also an excellent golfer having played junior Ryder Cup with Rory

I bought an ex demo Motocaddy M1 direct from their site - it came pretty much indistinguishable from new and was quite a bit cheaper than new - might be worth a look?

Thanks - 2 wedges for me, a driver for my son and a putter for the daughter for £200! Got to be good value

In case it might help anyone else, I made a simple cradle for my phone using a cheap case and one of the rubber vice adapters that you use to clamp your clubs. Works really well with the app and I find the app really good.

Thanks everyone I had a good look at everything last night and took all the comments on board. In the end I managed to pick up a Motocaddy M1 from their preowned shop. It seems to be quite well regarded and it didn't break the bank either o_O. Thanks again

Thanks Robster I've gone onto all of the websites and noted down the dimensions when folded, etc - but I thought it really important to hear comments like you made re: new shape Go Kart and the potential fragility of some of the smaller units. Thanks for taking the time to respond - appreciated
