Golf bag pull cart attached to bag on golf cart
 
Would anyone know what pull cart works best when you want to attach your pull cart to your golf bag and drive to the course in your Golf cart so you can walk the course? Hopefully I didn’t make this too confusing? 😇

I have used sunmountains 3 wheel folder and presently use cliqgear 3 wheel folder. Both are great and allow adjustment of the front wheel direction(it can want to go a bit left or right and to those of us who don't want to fight anything). Those are among the best and will set back a few C notes(well worth it).

As to you asking about the fit on the bag then on the cart...I advise attaching the cart at the course. You may not like this option for whatever reason, but you do make it easier to transport the "push" cart using the golf bag straps next to your bag.

My wife has used a bagboy (2 wheels) pull cart since 2007 without any issues. You can keep the cart attached to the bag -- just fold it up and return it to the cart with the wheels facing toward the rear.

Look into this - not sure if its available in the US.

I 3 wheels motorcycle type thing that converts into a walking behind cart.

Dunno. The exec. course have pullcarts that rent for a buck apiece so we always use theirs. Saves garage space.

I have a 3 wheel Sun Mountain Speed Cart. I attach my golf bag to the cart and then attach the cart with bag to the golf cart. Make sure the 2 rear wheels are facing out. I have been doing this for years and have had absolutely no problem. It is nice to unload the cart with bag and then just have to open the wheels when I get to the course.

By doing this, another person is able to ride with me to the course and I have room for their clubs. I have also done this when 2 people have the Sun Mountain carts and have plenty of room for both.

Turf Chopper! Just the name alone will strike fear in the mind of any greenskeeper!

162 lbs. That would be hard to get that upon your golf cart to take to the course.

Whatever brand of cart you pick, I would highly recommend getting a three wheel push cart. Much easier to push than to pull and much easier on your back to push instead of pull. I have used a Bag Boy for years. I separate the bag from the push cart and assemble at the course.

I prefer the 3 wheelers with air tires. Roll much easier, but no matter what type of tire 3 wheelers are the easiest.

I have both 2 wheel and 3 wheel carts. Most people think you have to pull a 2 wheel cart, but actually they are very easy to push if you balance them correctly. And they are easier to push up a hill since you aren't fixed to a handle height. And you won't see your bag and cart roll down a hill and into a pond just because you forgot to set the brake (I have!:).
Don't rule out a 2 wheel cart - they are smaller, cheaper, and have their advantages. But I will admit to using both.

Buy the cheapest and lightest 2 wheel folding once pull cart. You never have to detach from your bag ( Hopefully your bag is not too big and heavy. Then you need 3 wheeler ).

Cheers!

Not quite true!

You actually ride it to the course (like a 3 wheeled golf cart) and do somethings to turn it into a push cart.

If you are asking how to transport your bags using a pull cart designed for the speed of driving on the golf cart to the course, depending on the size of your golf bag, we leave the pull cart attached to the bag, place the bag in the golf cart holder as normal with the pull cart wheels heading out, then run the strap through the area of the pull cart where the handle folds down and attach the strap as normal to the golf cart holder. The strap doesn't go around the handle when folded, but between the folded handle and the pull cart fame. Been doing that for years and so convenient to unstrap like taking the bag out of the golf cart, placing on the ground and extending the handle.
We're not in The Villages at the current time or would have submitted a picture.

I have a Sun Mountain 3 wheel cart and my bag stays attached to the cart. I keep my cart/bag on the back of my golf cart with the 2 wheels facing right. That way it sits a little lower and I can still get the sunbrella rain cover over the bag if needed. I have a security bag cover that I bought at one of the club houses that protects the clubs and locks the cart/bag to the golf cart with a cable and padlock so I hardly ever remove the cart/bag except at the golf course. If I have to load 2 bags I can have the 2 wheels facing out and fit 2 Sun Mountain cart/bags.

Do they all have pull carts? We live south of the turnpike and would like to play all of the execs over time but aren't sure about driving the golf car up to the northernmost courses. Renting a pull cart would be an easy solution.
