Golf trolly disaster

[teegirl]

Can't imagine this has happened to many .......but then maybe it has?

I have a fairly old power caddy and it has a green button that if pressed sends the trolly on a 100 yd straight line...... and then stops !!

Well that's the theory, mine turned two 90* turns, increased its speed, and drove into a pond 😮😮
I almost got to it in time 😱
My playing partners were very amused 😭 After dragging it out and draining the pond life from the many pockets, played the last 4 holes with very wet grips and soggy socks 😂

you wont be the first or last, it's happened to me and I've seen it with a fellow PP on the same hole at my course,

mine went into a stream the first week I had it, nearly lost in a pond too but managed to catch it on the edge.

I've seen a Pp 's manual trolley go walkabout at Chiltern Forest which is very hilly.
Started rolling downhill, Pp in hot persuit, but never had a chance.

Must have been doing 30 mph at the bottom of the slope, hit a rut and took off , cleared a fence and ended up in a bush.

Amazingly no damage, just a bruised ego

Happened to my mate problem was he had his car electronic ignition key and the remote for his garden gate in his bag both were rendered useless. His house is 10 miles away and his wife was away luckily Mercedes eventually came out and managed to get him a new car key. However when he got home he tried to climb his gates someone saw him and rang the police who turned up and tried to arrest him when he proved who he was and just so as not to have wasted their time they breathalysed him (he was under the limit.) then did him for illegal parking..

Bought a new Motocaddy S1 Pro last July.

Returning from an open my mate dropped me off at the end of the day outside my house. I had, clubs, trolley, battery, suit bag and hold-all with me.

Brought what I thought was everything indoors, only to find out three days later that I must have been distracted and left the trolley out on the road!!

Someone had then helped themselves and that was it - gone. £350 down the nick 😒👀

Still in therapy even now some months later.
