Default Push Carts do not damage greens

any other golf course you would be tossed out
I walk all courses here with a push cart. I weigh 160 lbs. The cart weighs maybe 40 lbs with the bag and clubs, and wide wheels. I occasionally cut a corner and do WAY LESS damage than the heavy, stumble footed, cleat draging hackers out here on the green and especial around the holes. Not to mention the HDCP carts up on the aprons and the dozens of ball marks that are left for me to repair. Push Carts are NOT a part of the problem. (Wasn't me on Tarpon Boil either!)
