Today more than any other time, we must reduce our carbon footprint. While many golfers may not realize it, the motorized carts they drive all over the golf course do have a carbon impact on the environment. Because when these carts are plugged in to re-charge, the electricity is provided by the burning of fuels that cause carbon emissions.

Modern push cars for golf now are much improved in design and are rapidly replacing the old pull cart design. Time was, when the golf cart was your basic tripod metal vehicle for getting your golf bag around the golf course. These pull carts were never all that popular because they were not ergonomically engineered and can produce shoulder and back strain.

Modern push carts are designed to eliminate any upper body injuries as you push the cart in front of you. The three wheel designs make for a much more stable cart and now carts can roll over even the the most uneven parts of the course without tipping over.

These new push carts are high-tech golfing gadgets which may have special features that include a portable office caddy that can not only carry your clubs, but your lunch, hand-held golf GPS devices, even your iPhone. It has everything you need to have a virtual office right there as you play the course.

To play golf without standing around waiting all the time and most golf courses require you to play at a certain pace in a specified amount of time. Using a push cart actually can improve your golf play speed as you are not driving from side to side of the fairway. Add to this the fact that, many courses mark off parts of the course that you can’t drive a motorized golf cart on (typically near the green and around the tee boxes) so you have to drive the cart away from where your ball is and walk back. This definitely slows down your pace of play

Investing in a push pull golf cart can be a great way to save some money on your sport as you won’t need to rent a motorized cart. It is also a fantastic way to shed a few pounds of body weight. You’ll look and feel better, you’ll see the ladies take notice too!
