Golf Cart Travel

[JimJohnson]

How long will it be to travel by golf cart from the Brownwood neighborhoods to the Fenney Grill? Ask anyone connected to The Villages and you get a fearful stare. Why the cloak and dagger act?:popcorn:

[Chatbrat]

If its 10 miles @ 20mph--its an half hr drive each way--, I know its 6 miles from soaring eagle to the Fenney gate, but I'm doing what ever the speed limit is

[NotGolfer]

Until the bridges are built and finished...no one will be able to travel from Brownwood to Fenney! I'd heard once though it would take about 20 minutes but until it opens we can only speculate.

[Bogie Shooter]

Isn't the question when will it be possible to travel not how long it would take to make the trip?
I don't know....

[kansasr]

Actually, using a published map of the proposed roadways in the new section, you can estimate that from Brownwood to Fenney it would be a little under a 7 mile trek via cart, or at 20mph approximately 20 minutes.

The people with the souped up, hemi engine golf carts will make the trip in 10 minutes. :icon_wink:

What's the guess on how long it will take to get to the Fenney Grill form either the Mulbury Rec. Center or Orange Blossim CC via golf cart. My guess would be about 1:15 - 1:20 one way driving the speed limit? That's a long round trip ride.

[Ooper]

I would estimate the milage and then add 15-25% to allow for round-a-bouts, tunnels and stopping for traffic and slow carts.

That is how they are.

Patience, Prudence!

Thank you Gracie. I messed up how I asked the question. Bogie Shooter got it.

Leaving from Palmer I will need to eat lunch in Finney before returning.

As of today, I figure about a year and a half.

Seeing as I live north of sumter landing I'd have to eat breakfast near me, stop in Brownwood for lunch, hit the new villages. Maybe do a couple tee times on the way and dinner at Fenny!

By that time, you'll be too tired to drive home. :1rotfl:

Yeah. I believe they are building a hotel near there aren't they?

[justjim]

Hopefully there will be a restaurant or two south of 44 before you get all the way down to Fenney Grill. Time will tell.

[BobnBev]

Maybe I'll hook up a hot dog wagon to my cart, and set up at the halfway point.....could make a fortune.:a040::coolsmiley:

I knew two very good looking sisters in college named Patience and Prudence. No kidding.

Drive your car instead. It is much faster and safer. Rent a cart at NL or Orange Blossom, or jump on with someone else. No brainer.

But not as enjoyable :)

Closer to 30 min. if driving at 20mph. Stops and turns, passing at reduced speeds. I seldom average more than 15 mph on an extended trip ( 3 or more miles)

The heat never really bothers me. I used to work in it all day so riding in a cart doesn't bother me. If I spend lots of time going in and out of air conditioned spaces my nose and throat start having problems. I do know some people can't tolerate heat.
