If you play often, you’ll want to purchase your own set of golf clubs, and also a golf trolley. But why purchase new, when there are many used golf trolleys on our site. You have two options for golf trolleys – used golf trolleys that you must manually push or pull around the golf course, or a used electric golf trolley.
Why a Used Electric Golf Trolley is Best
A golf trolley is used to help transport your golf clubs around the golf course. You may be tempted to just lug them around over your shoulder or back, but after half an hour of that you’ll be tempted to just give up on your game and go home to rest.
Your golf clubs can be attached to a golf trolley which makes them easier to carry them around the course.
The difference between a regular trolley and a used electric golf trolley is that the electric one is battery-powered, and is much easier to transport your golf gear around the course.
It requires much less effort than having to manually push or pull the trolley around.
If you’re over sixty-five years old, or have some old injuries that trouble you, finding used electric golf trolleys for sale will help to get you out of the house and get fresh air to help you get back in shape.
Walking is one of the best exercises, and swinging a golf club gives you a gentle way to exercise your upper body. But you don’t want to over-strain your back by having to carry a heavy set of clubs around.
Electric golf trolleys do cost more though. If you’re just starting out in golf, you can find nearly new electric golf trolleys on our site that are just a fraction of the cost of buying a brand new trolley.
Where Did Electric Trolleys Originate?
The first electric golf trolley was seen in the UK in 1983. It was designed by Joe Catford, who had created the Powakaddy company and line of electric golf trolleys.
He saw the need in the market for something that would help players enjoy their golfing more. Later, Catford created another company called HillBilly, which started manufacturing golf caddies in the early 90s.
