Carry or if the backs not up to it then use the Gokart electric trolley.

i was mostly carrying. have a really light bag and i basically only carried my clubs and some balls. but last weekend i put all this junk in it and it got pretty heavy. think i messed up my neck/shoulder from carrying the heavy bag. so now i will be back to using a push cart. in fact, i'd recommend cart now that i've experience this neck/shoulder pain. carrying is not worth it.

I bought a pullcart long ago, but also ended up buying a stand-up bag since I needed a new bag. Now, I carry my clubs. I'm only 25 and I need the exercise anyway.

 

Plus, IMO it's more convenient carrying your bag than pulling/pushing.

i love carrying because it gets me in a good tempo and warmed up...

 

but now that i work weekdays and try to fit in 2 or 3 rounds through the weekend, i push a cart in efforts to save energy throughout the rounds and also for monday morning.. if i carry my bag for 3 rounds, i have trouble getting through the workday on monday!

I'm usually a push cart guy, mostly because my bag is so full of garbage and extra clubs I'm trying out. On a truly nice day I will clean out the bag (14 clubs, balls & tees ONLY) and carry it for 18.

Do I need a 4-iron?

I push a Sun Mountain V2.

 

I'd prefer to carry as it is less weight and easier, but my L5 pops out and carrying a bag could result in me laying on the grass waiting for a stretcher. I keep hoping my abs will get strong enough for me to carry again, but work gets in the way of the necessary exercise.

 

In my teens I caddied and did two double loops on Saturday and Sunday and then would go out and walk 54 on monday (2 1/4 hour rounds on a 6700 yard course). Those days were fun. I'm 50 now.

 

If you can, carry.

If I do this 11,548 more times, I will be having fun. - Zippy the Pinhead

I carry.

 

If you want to save even more money, sell your bag and buy a "Sunday" bag from Cleveland, Ping or Titleist. They only run about $30-$40 and make everything extra light.

 

I sometimes will take a pull cart on a hilly course but usually just carry the sticks.

 

Not really worth it, I have a cally xxt cary bag and I think it weighs like 4 pounds, a sunday bag probably ways 2 to 3 for the pound you save its not worth sacrificing the comforts of a stand bag.

 

Here are some tips to lighten your bag up

 

Take out the rain gear

 

Dont carry more thant a dozen balls at a time

 

You dont really need a huge watter bottle, most cources have water on the tee boxes every 3 to 4 holes.

 

Doing those things should save 5 to 10 pounds.

I used to be a carry guy until my back started to go. If I'm playing nine I may still carry, but eighteen holes I'm pushing. The difference at the end of the round is pretty shocking. I seem to walk at the pace I started instead of dragging a bit. Riding in a cart can undo my game. I tend to feel hurried speeding up to my ball. My rhythm gets real quick.
