Golf Carts Are a Thing of The Past

If you’re one of the 24.8 million golfers in the US, no matter you’re a professional, or one of the 3 million new beginners, chances are, you’ve got your clubs, tee’s, balls, and a scorecard, and carrying added weight golf bag on a hot day is something that you generally don’t want. If you want to be fully prepared without fatigue before next round of golf, you’re in the market for a electric golf cart on the course.

6 billion was spent on golf equipment in 2020 around US, golf gadgets, golf club supplies, and apparel for the course. Many of those went to the sale of personal golf cart. It may sound like a luxury for only the rich and famous players. But owning your private golf cart can be a reality for most golfers if they know what they’re looking for (golf scooter cart buying guide). More liability by using your own golf carts or scooters, and there are various options that is completely customizable to golf rider wants and needs for golf cart alternative, gas or electric, colors, styles, the type of tires, 2 wheel golf cart bike or golf trike scooter and more, some even doesn’t have to look like a golf cart. These price range from hand and pull carts, golf bike / golfcycle, to fat tire electric scooter and gas ride-on carts also varies.

Why Golf Scooter Become Popular on Course?

Walking or riding, choice has to be made when paying for your round at local club. Whether is walk with your golf bag or share a ride on cart, or maybe golf caddies, motorized golf cart, stand bags, push carts, power push carts, and even riding solo on a electric cart. However,  “Fun” isn’t usually the word associated with any of those options.

Covid pandemic thing limited golfers from more than two rider on cart, so all other courses are short on golf cart rentals every weekend, golf cart industry trends have turned to golf cart alternative: single rider golf cart.

Among them, we suggest golf scooter cart, or you can call it golf motorcycle or motorcycle golf cart, just like the broader EV (Electric Vehicle) market, the electric golf scooter cart market is evolving quickly, more practical and fun. Golf cart batteries now have longer ranges and they charge more quickly. Added Features like quick-swap battery design, easy assemble after receiving your own cart, beverage box, scooter box, a kill switch attached to the kickstand and some come with cooler box. I suppose if you have your own golf bike and have it all decked out with above plethora of accessories, it can be fun! 

What Can Golf Scooter Do?

If there is a place where we know about electric vehicles, it is on the golf courses. They have been using curious carts for decades to move around the countryside comfortably and without polluting or noises. But all this could be a thing of the past because electric golf scooters are already trying to break through...

What about golf cart bike if the game changed? Obviously we are not referring to the rules of golf but to the vehicles to get around. If I'm going to play alone, why take a golf cart? Wouldn't they then have to define a new (temporary) policy outlining what is allowed, restrictions on motorcycle golf cart speed, proof of insurance requirements, golf bike trail fee, etc? 

The first problem of golf scooter cart to be solved is the issue of where to carry the clubs, and here several alternatives optional, ranging from integrated into the chassis itself, with which they are located right between the legs, or at the rear. The issue of autonomy is sucked because nowadays any electric scooter is capable of having a battery that lasts 18 holes... and more. Aren't there other more stylish solutions if I'm a motorcycle fanatic? Of course there is! (motorcycle golf cart benefits)

Best Golf Scooter 2021

KopplaMoto, Swift Golf Motorcycle

The Koppla 2 wheel golf cart bike have made life easier for golfers, especially those who do not want to kick (look at the subtle pun intended ) the 18 hole pull. Lightweight, electric, mobility with ATV wide wheels, capacity for one golf rider with comfortably carrier for golf bag with all the necessary clubs, what’s more, it includes a scooter box for beverage on the rear rack.

Since it resides in the fact that the wheels have to have enough grip on grass and, at the same time, not leave the field as if we were going to plant potatoes later. That is why small rims and extra-wide tires become the best allies for this motorcycle golf cart.

Finn Scooter

The Finn cycle that you can see in the cover photo was launched last year by the company specialized in golf bags, Sun Mountain, under the name Finn Cycle or Finn Scooters. The best thing about this golf cycle is that it has been designed for and by the practice of golf riders, so its chassis, the wheels of different sizes and the rest of the component adapt perfectly to the particularities of this game. Finn golf scooter offers varies color combos and price at $3499.

Phat Scooters

The third model that we have found is not designed directly for this sport, but Phat scooter has been adapted. It is a hybrid between a phat tire and an electric moped called Phat scooters golf cart, since it can be driven standing up or adapted to a rear seat. In this case, the bag for the clubs is transported at the back and given the size and width of its tires, which are even designed for ride on sand, it has no problem to be used on a golf course without damaging the grass surface.

So, tell me ... are you one of the comfortable ones who will continue in a golf cart? Or will you go on to show that the two-wheel thing is not a fashion but a philosophy?

Who is an electric golf cart scooter for? You may be:

• Someone who wants to stay ahead in the technology game

• A beginner who wants more time on practicing

What do customers say about golf cart scooter?

"I used a Koppla Swift golf motorbike for 9 holes of golf. If you want to increase the joy of your round of golf, this bike are the best option out there by a mile"

"If you've ever been on Finn Scooter, you know they are much, much more fun because they are so much quicker, absolutely loved it. "

"I started out on a Phat Scooter. So much more mobility and freedom in a single fat scooter versus a golf cart. Very easy to use, although you do have to exercise caution with the speed at times. Big tires caused no issues on the grass, and I have to think two scooters would cause less grass damage than a single cart. The Phat Scooters had all the accessories you need - storage bin, scorecard holder, drink holder. And a headlight for illegal night golf is a nice add in."
