Thanks, I can never figure out how to post photos correctly.

This is my bag boy cart with the optional seat.

And once again I screw up posting a picture. I give up.

Pull carts are so cheap to buy and the wheels actually hold up quite well. I don't believe you need to switch to a bike type tire that would also need air.

Are you wanting the extra pulling resistance or the harder to clean tires more?

Neither!!

My course has alot of little ankle rollers tree stumps and very steep rough terrain. I don't think the plastic wheels would hold up very well..

Just saying. Dont mean to critizes yeah, I was just wondering... What if?

plus, I played with a guy that had a cart with two flat tires. We have Blackberries here, and that will go right through a tire.

The wheels I use are off one of those golf pull carts and are made of foam. They have some nice give to them on rough terrain but hold up very well. They have taken locust thorns and spit them out like sunflower seeds. They hold up very well in my 5 months of dragging it along.

Don't know if anyone posted this yet, but they look pretty cool. A little pricey though.

But there's nowhere to put a cooler. I thought that was part of the reason to have a cart.

Looks like there is some room in between the wheels behind the bag, for a small cooler.

I played a tournament last year with a guy who had one of those. Seemed to work really well for him. If I played tournaments more regularly I would consider getting one...

Another GrandMaster and myself started use pull carts in 2011. Both of us have the Go-Cart seen in the link in a previous post. They created a lot of interest. We took a lot of ribbing.
Not everyone has $200 (well, mine was used so I paid considerably less) but carts have really caught on at my home course. Some use golf bag carts, some are using jogging strollers, but there's probably a half-dozen regulars pulling or pushing some kind of cart. Guys in their 20's, 30's, 40's and 50's are using carts and the interest seems to be growing.

A few pro-level dudes in my region have this cart. It seems to work pretty well.

They are nice but yes at $200 they are a little on the expensive side. A golf pull cart used, with modifications, round cooler and umbrella holder will run $25-$50.00. Pull carts have really nice clearance too.
