Hello, I think the Villages is a small haven for golfers. I decided to join it. My golf school starts Oct 4, Monday for 5 days. I am not ready to get a golf cart yet. So, I am hoping to get a push cart. If anyone knows of a reasonable price one or any suggestions, I would appreciated.

Thank you,
Ratana
PS. I have a hard time posting since I have not use this TOTV much at all. I hope this post get out from this thread. Sorry and thank you.

I picked up one of the BagBoy Nitron Golf Push Carts at the beginning of the year and have had zero problems with it. It isn't the cheapest one out there but it folds up small and unfolds in under 3 seconds. I've got a big BagBoy tour/staff bag and they have a feature that locks it right in place so it sits securely and literally can't fall off, moves/rolls smooth, it also has a hand brake so it won't roll away on you. 2 drawbacks are that you have to take your bag off the cart in order to fold it back up and the storage pouch under the handle doesn't secure causing things to fall out when you do go to put it back in the car (a small piece of double sided velcro tape easily solved the latter problem)

Trying to nip this off topic diversion "in the bud", before it took over the thread...no need for ad hominem nastiness.

Thanks for being the good Samaritan.

D) 2 People (1 couple) have future interest, no at TV yet. As mentioned previously, the focus for now is getting Group "A" sorted out and playing by June. I'd like to let this percolate for a few days to get feedback from people on preferences for day to play golf, format suggestions, any concerns or issues with group golf and every individual's personal choices. The group is for golf fun & enjoyment only...sorry to have to emphasize this, but we hope all can leave their politics at home for a few hours. Thanks!

My wife and I would be interested. I was a decent player back in the day, not so much any more. I have trouble with the heat and several injuries limit what I can do.
The wife is a complete beginner but enjoys getting out.
We'd probably only be interested in executive courses but might consider the occasional championship.

What do I need to do to get added to the list?
