Electric is the only way to go and all that should be allowed on golf courses.

They're quieter so as not to disturb other golfers and environmentally friendly.

Fully charged overnight and I've driven 15.5 miles each way to Lopez, and played 18 holes with side stop at Sumter on the way home. That was a 45-mile day.

I don't bad-mouth gas carts. It's just an individual choice of household.

Why people get so passionate about it is perplexing.

And these courses are not in good enough shape to worry about 1-4 carts on the course. Two carts doesn't speed up play.

"Ready golf" speeds up play and picking up "in the leather" speeds up play.
