Motorized Golf Carts - A Brief User's Manual

The two types of motorized golf carts are: (a) the Push/Pull cart - the golf bag is fastened with a strap; and (b) small motor-car style - can be driven along the course.

The car-style motorized golf carts were first used during the 1940s by people who have disabilities. They used the carts to drive along the golf course. However, even if these golf carts were originally designed to help people who are physically challenged, the vehicle is now being enjoyed by most golfers.

Some motorized golf carts are powered by electricity. The others are powered by gasoline. The average speed of a golf cart plays along the lines of 15 and 20 MPH. You may find some carts having just 2 seats, but others have up to 6 seats to be able to transport an entire flight from one part of the course to another during matches.

You should be conscious of the safety measures and rules when using the gasoline and electric-powered motorized golf carts:

- Always abide by the rules set by your golf club every time you use them.
- Even if there are no rules regarding your use of golf carts, have the common sense to consider driving, parking, and loading SOPs. You should not just drive them wherever you please, park them wherever it suits you or overload them.
- You should always use the brakes properly
- Just as we observe in driving our cars or any other vehicle for that matter... DO not DRINK AND DRIVE!

Push/Pull carts are also subject to certain rules at the golf club. An example of this would be being careful when dragging our cart at the turf. You do not want the wheels of the cart to leave marks on the grass since this may cause significant damage to the turf.

Motorized golf carts are battery-operated. They are created by different dealers and you can find them in many stores on the internet. A shop where you can find anything about carts is Kaddy Karts located in california.
