i have weathertech floor liners in trunk of my mid-size sedan and just shop vac it out. In wet spring conditions, the wheels do pick up a great deal of debris at times
#PushCartMafia - Are you in?
I've seen a photo of someone using a big reusable cloth/canvas bag/tote in their trunk. I thought that was an excellent idea. I have a pickup so i wasn't terribly attentive

I have a Clic Gear 3.5+ and my son has a Bag Boy Nitron. I always take the Nitron over mine if he doesn’t go and play with me.

Any specific reason for that? They both sound like great carts, just trying to find something that pushes me one way or the other.

I guess I like the easier opening of the Nitro and I like the storage bag under the handle and I like the water bottle holder better.
I walked 27 on a tough par 3 course Saturday and it felt good
I do have a truck liner, still couldn’t have all that vegetation anywhere near me. And bringing that stuff home and dumping it on my lawn/driveway is a no go.
Also, on some courses ( typically hiily and challenging) using a baby stroller is more of a hindrance. They can’t navigate waste areas, most penalty areas, hilly terrain etc. It always seems they have them parked on the wrong side of the green when we finish putting out and they have to completely circumnavigate the the green to get to the next tee box. So they contribute to slow play. On flat parkland courses, no problem, Now if you, have health and fitness issues, yes, they rock!
Walked for the first time in a while after work today. Calves only burned for the first five or six holes. Gotta keep waking more.
i am leaning toward the nitron myself
Do two-wheel carts count? Like BagBoy M-350 style, but older and with a water bottle holder haha. I can pull or push mine. Uphill, downhill...no problems. Carts make everything easier.
How do you like that bag? Looks like it sets pretty good on the cart.
I've used it as a carry bag for a couple years, its awesome. One of the best all around carry bags IMO. ONe the cart it stayed in place pretty well, no adjustment needed during the round, and the bottom didn't collapse too bad. My one quibble with the Hoofer is that even with a 5 way top, club tangle can happen with a couple Gatorades and a sweater in the side pocket competing for space.
I snagged a push cart this week. An employee of mine buys abandoned storage units and asked me if I wanted a cart he found. He only wanted $75 for a Bagboy Nitron so I couldn’t refuse. I used it nine holes today before I got too hot and rode on the back. I liked it a lot; my last cart was 20 years ago and a two-wheel pull cart.

walking in the desert in summer is two thumbs up!
I've been rocking the new push cart for several rounds and starting to get in a rhythm with it. I think this could work out. I still don't mind carrying the bag, feel a little fresher by the end of the round than when carrying.
Since the accident destroyed my CG 8, it’s now been replaced by a CG 4
Added some horse power to my pushcart today!

loving the nitron...it does make me ponder a bagboy cart bag, tho
ponder no longer. if you have and dislike bag rotation when one a side-hill lie, you can eliminate that. I don't use the top strap at all with the bagboy bag. The bottom I do but honestly it could be removed. super combo
I really want to be, but I'm not willing to spend the money on one quite yet. I enjoy walking. For maybe 1 month a year, I'll get up early and walk (carry) 9 at my local course. But then it always seems to go away and I just don't walk anymore than that. Hard to justify spending money on a good cart for something that I only seems capable of committing myself to for maybe 15 9 hole rounds per year.
And then there's the issue of which cart to get, which I've agonized over for the past year really. CG 4 or bag boy nitron. And then there's the issue of which bag to use on a cart. I love my c130 cart bag, but from what I've read, it doesn't particularly like push carts (CG4 especially). So then I have my wilson nexus stand bag (circa 2015), but again, at least with CG, sounds like you need to buy a part for hold the from twisting. But the CG has better accessories IMO. Ugggh, why does purchasing golf gear have to be so hard.

I have a Big Max Auto Fold FF (Fold Flat) and I use it at least once a week and twice a month on Saturdays'
Walked 18 on last Saturday for 11,000 steps, we had a 3 some and kept up with the foursome in carts in front of us.
Price on these bad boys has gone up a $100 since I got mine. "Market Pricing".....
