The only issue my wife had had in her 10+ years but she seems to got the knack now.Still worked fine, she was just struggling to get the battery seated at times. The trolley was quite old though

But auto or finger control? People need to know!

Lord T came down to play with my group of guys yesterday so I had a chance to try his old model finger controlled unit. I liked it well enough.....and as had been pointed out that I can just leave everything off and push/let roll when things are easy which was iffy with the auto control.....so went with the 18 hole battery, finger control, and red trim. One of the guys I play with had his old trolley go kaput on Wed...motor half fell off and was dragging on the ground....shortly followed by the axle collapsing in the middle......could only drag it....surprisingly, he didn't like it that wayBut auto or finger control? People need to know!
. He is getting a good deal on my 2+ year old M1 Motocaddy which has driven me nutty over this time with the controller deciding which speed it wanted to go at.

Well....impressed so far. Ordered the trolley Friday late afternoon about 4:30 after playing. Figured nothing much would happen until Monday and hoped I'd have it by the end of the week. It was delivered at noon today/Tuesday.

First time out with the GoKart today. Only thing that irritated me was how front heavy it is. You really have to push down on the handle to get the front wheel up to turn around....hope the plastic is strong enough to put up with the strain. Other than that....a real relief not to have to deal with the Motocaddy control knob.

Funny, because my only irritation with it is that it isn't front heavy enough and can tip towards me going up steep inclines.

Of course.....it might help if I took the tv/sink/shot put/500 golf balls out of the bag.......

Yeah. I'm the other way. Very thin light bag, 11 clubs and half a dozen balls in a pocket at the top of the bag.

OK...I've got another complaint. That scorecard holder....I may have to keep the card in my back pocket because that thing is horrible.

I found it depended on the size of the scorecard, but I rarely used it anyway.
You didn't ask about the scorecard holder...

I really should have done more research. Just checked for accessories....thought maybe they would do a net/bag attachment to the handle for "things".....nothing. The Ripon scorecard is ok, but the stupidly big Oakdale card I have to rip off the ends and the sides to get it to fit.....It's a hardship, but hey...I could be working for a living.I found it depended on the size of the scorecard, but I rarely used it anyway.

The umbrella holder is stable enough, and the trolley bag is well worth buying.
You'll need to buy a bigger golf bag if you want more "things" stored.

Don't forget the waterproof rain cover for the bag, well worth the outlay.The umbrella holder is stable enough, and the trolley bag is well worth buying.

Isn’t the bag waterproof?

Actually....just remembered another BIG complaint. The straps at the top of the bag....my Ping bag keeps turning sideways....the straps just suck to hold it steady. Going to try some safety pins in the strap and an extra wrap of the strap around "something" to stop the rotation. And another complaint.....the free beer dispenser doesn't seem to work. That's a joke, son........
Does your bag have a slot on the base? Check it, it might have. Mine does, it's a motocaddy bag, and it slots onto the bottom of the trolley so that it won't turn. It's not a perfect fit, but it doesn't need to be. It's good enough and mine doesn't twist at all.
I can take pictures if needs be.

Have you thought about playing golf wit Crazyface? You two should get along brilliantly.
