My last round I experienced something I have yet to experience with the M7. It tipped over
I'm taking the blame for this one because it happened in a spot where I wouldn't have thought. My worry has always been some sort of sidehill lie or going up or down a hill. Nope, this one was walking about 15 yards shy of the fairway(from the tee box). It was an area where there are some slight dips, but nothing major, and this cart has handled them every time with no issue. This time, however, I turned around because someone yelled FORE, next thing I know I turn around the cart was on it's right side. It's possible I hit the remote slightly or had the speed going a bit too much. But yeah, it happened.
Now the positive. Not a scratch on it, which is cool. The battery didn't budge. The power remained on. Also, thanks to the Easilock bag system, where there is no bottom strap, the bag remained on the cart, which was kind of impressive to me. I did re-adjust the top strap after the fact, but all was good.
So I just loaded up the Motocaddy for a round this afternoon with @GolferGal and while I am using the m5 instead of the m7, I absolutely love the features.
Question for each of the M7 testers. I press the button and it goes and pretty much walks alongside of me the entire time. Works great and haven't had a single issue. Outside of the occasional moving it to the next tee box, do you generally keep your caddy next to you or send it up and stop it?

Bit of both, but mostly I send it since elevation isn’t great and I want to be able to see it at all times.So I just loaded up the Motocaddy for a round this afternoon with @GolferGal and while I am using the m5 instead of the m7, I absolutely love the features.

I do a couple different things with mine. In the fairway I'll either walk beside it or let it go about 20 yards in front of me, but most of the time, it's in front. By the greens, it's next to me and once I get my putter I send it to the side of the green towards the next tee box but not too far away. We have a couple cart bridges over water, and while they have sides that won't let it fall off, I still put it in manual mode and hold on. All of my rounds with it so far have been solo and I don't really have the need to just send it other than the greens and tee boxes.So I just loaded up the Motocaddy for a round this afternoon with @GolferGal and while I am using the m5 instead of the m7, I absolutely love the features.

My M7 arrived yesterday so am hoping to get out on the course with it today
The M5 looks like a great cart, but with the ability to have free GPS apps on the phone, I would put the M7 above it any day of the week. With the phone holder it’s a no brainer.Awesome ... congrats! If I could decide between the M5 and the M7, one would be on the way to my house, too. I really like the M5 but the little voice on my shoulder keeps saying, "You'll regret not having a remote control!"

I’ve got a V3 as well as the M7 and have to say that with the V3 you don’t need the GPS on the M5. The remote isn’t a distraction at all and I’ve found so far that not having to bend over to a trolley really helps my back. Go for the M7Yeah, there's that, plus, I just unboxed and am reading the user manual for a Shot Scope V3
Just not sure if I'd view the remote as a blessing or a PITA distraction.
The remote is good for being able to send it and enjoy nice weather days. On hot days, I’m just as inclined to have my umbrella give me that glorious shade and I just have to walk at the same pace as the cart.I’ve got a V3 as well as the M7 and have to say that with the V3 you don’t need the GPS on the M5.

It all depends on how/where you want the remote. I've come accustomed to leaving the remote on the cart everywhere but the green. I'll have a big write up tonight/tomorrow on what/how I use it.Yeah, there's that, plus, I just unboxed and am reading the user manual for a Shot Scope V3

So how many of you guys when you are out using this get asked questions from random golfers? I know basically, every guy in my league has asked about it, but I get so many questions in the parking lot or by the pro shop at various courses. Last night my first tee shot went down the 9th hole fairway(which is the proper miss, 1 is a skinny FW with OB right), but while driving it over to my ball there was a guy coming down that hole. He stopped and had so many questions about this thing. Where'd I get it? How much does it go for? What's the battery life? How easy is it to use? Do I love it or not? I feel like for me I've had that conversation with a ton of golfers over the last month of using the M7. It's a crazy good conversation starter.
Question I have is how are you guys feeling after a round compared to when you where pushing a cart?
Honestly, I feel much more refreshed after the round. I'm not going to say it's because of having to push a cart the whole time, which does take a little out of you as the day goes on right? But with the use of the remote, this thing makes the round like a relaxing walk. Hills have no extra stress whatsoever. If I "park" my cart on the wrong side of the green, I don't need to walk over there and push it to the next hole. I can just control it with the remote and have it ready to go either to where I am walking off the green, or as I've shown, drive it to the next tee box(course dependant).
You know where I really like it, if you drive it in the rough and can't find your ball. I don't need to push the cart all over the place while searching. Control the cart into that general area, just walk around hands-free, and then when finding the ball, have it come to you. Also if looking for another partner's ball it's the same type of deal. Little things like that.
That last part is the only reason that I am debating the M7. My course has very penal rough and I love the M5 so much, but when looking for a ball that is sunk down 3 inches, the remote means I could park it and bring it to me.
The most common questions I get are "how much does that cost?", "did you tip it over yet?", and "do you trust the remote?"So how many of you guys when you are out using this get asked questions from random golfers?
I feel a lot less tired after a round using this as opposed to a push trolley. It was one of the reasons I went for it as play a 2 rounds in a day quite often.Question I have is how are you guys feeling after a round compared to when you where pushing a cart?
