treated myself to an electric trolly and end of year,mostly bought it because was sick of not putting waterproofs etc in carry bag and getting caught in the pissing rain...will probably go between the two this year

Actually no. I'm diabetic and so its important that I keep hydrated and maintain my sugar levels. I find if I don't I get tired extremely quickly and playing and concentrating become big issues. I tend to trolly if its likely to rain so I can get all my extra gear like towels, waterproofs and food in and tend to carry if its a social round or I'm only taking my drinks and nibbles, especially in the summer. I do find that I definitely get tireder when I carry no matter how light the bag is. It might be my diabetes or I'm just getting past it

Your diabetes is a very unfortunate circumstance, but I to feel that eating power food on the course can help give you a boost of energy but some people like to bring out a full blown picnic!

Bought the lightweight R11 bag with the intentions of carrying but after 4 holes (Par 3, 3, 5 & 4) I was in pain with my back. By 6 holes I had to bail and call it a day.
I'm 35 but was in a car crash in 1997 and have suffered with back issues ever since.
I now always use a trolley which I leave at the club as it doesn't fit in the 911 with two sets of clubs and a passenger.

Use a pull trolley. Carried on the first round I ever played and swore never too again.
Don't think using an electric trolley is lazy necessarily, but personally my golf is all the exercise I get - i like to feel like i've had a good work out and lugging all my stuff around does the job.

Homer your in a minority regards your diabetes but can I ask why you carried for 36 holes round woburn if you struggle carrying with it??
Carrying a couple of energy bars doesn't require a trolley surely?

I do both. I have a Powakaddy and big tour bag which I use for 36 holers and bad weather when I need waterproofs and all the other bits of gear. Prefer to carry though, I have a Titleist pencil bag. 14 clubs, couple of tees, Mars bar and a spare ball in case I have to hit a provisional.....much easier.
Fitting the electric trolley into the Koenigsegg is a bit of a pain though. It's easier just to chuck it away and buy a new one each time I play ;-)

Always carry..........it's my only option until someone invents a trolley that can be pushed/pulled through the woods, over fences, down ravines.......in fact, anywhere I usually end up hitting my ball from!

I hear ya! I had a problem with clubs in the Veyron. Now I get custom fitted before each round. It's just easier.
If I feel like carrying, I'll carry.
If I feel like using the electric trolley, I'll use it.
