Just when you think you have seen it all – a spectator runs onto a green and throws a hot dog at Tiger Woods !!  Hardly an offensive weapon and probably just a “fan” who had one too many, but it shows how things have changed even in the noble game of golf.

Golf has always been envied by other sports for the standard of behaviour and sportsmanship , but times change and whilst this incident doesn’t want too be blown out of proportion, it reflects how nothing stands still.

In times past , players wore jackets and ties , used hickory shafted clubs and balls stuffed with feathers ! Compare that with the modern day golfer with their electric trolley , GPS device and hi-tec clothing and you realise how we have moved on.

The electric trolley has helped golfers of all ages to enjoy their game without the extra burden of heavy equipment  handicapping their performance and the GPS has lowered players scores by taking the guess work from their yardages and improving their course management.

Protrolley stock a wide range of trolleys and GPS devices , and are happy to help you select the right ones for your needs. You will be amazed how embracing these golfing changes improve your game , and now all you have to worry about is those flying hot dogs !!!

So many golfers play with no clue of how far they hit the ball, and waste dozens of shots as a result. Many think they are not consistent enough to bother with yardages, but why waste shots when you strive so hard to lower your score in other ways?

The starting point to this is to use a GPS device,  and become familiar with the exact distance you are from the hole , rather than just using a cursory glance at the 150 yd marker. Gradually you will discover that you are more consistent than you thought. Sure you will still miss-hit shots , so do the pros, but there is nothing more galling than pulling off your best swing and then finding the ball going nowhere near the hole as you had the wrong distance !

Protrolley provide a wide range of these devices, as well as their electric and push/pull trolley range, some require no subscription, and there are models for all budgets.

I cannot recommend these enough as a tool to reduce your scores . Give Protrolley a call and they will be pleased to advise you on the perfect golfing partner !!

Enjoy your Golf.

All equipment is important to golfers , but in my opinion the electric golf trolley is now one of my key pieces of kit. Some golfers may feel that they need to carry their golf bag, or pull a trolley, as some sort of macho exercise or to give them  a workout , but whoever you are , and however strong , your energy levels will be higher at the end of your round if you let the electric trolley take the strain of that heavy bag full of equipment.

So many different models are now available that everyone can find one to suit their games and their pockets. Protrolley even sell a remote controlled model for the ultimate in luxury. Also new super lightweight , lithium batteries have become available , to lighten the load even further and to power the trolley longer and all types of golf accessories can be added to the trolley such as brolley and GPS holders , drink carriers and so on , in fact everything you could possibly need during your round.

Make sure you are not using your valuable energy carting your equipment around the course instead of finishing fresh as a daisy behind your electric trolley !

Gone are the days of struggling around the course with a heavy bag of clubs on your back or tugging a trolley behind you , sapping your valuable energy which would be far better used for your swing. Modern golf has embraced the electric trolley with open arms. Easy to use, lightweight and efficient many golfers now see them as the most essential piece of equipment they have.

Pushing or pulling a self- propelled trolley puts strain on muscles that need to be in good shape to execute a successful shot ,  and at the very least drains energy, leading to under performance. These wonderful machines are no longer the luxury item of old , and at Protrolley you will find a range to suit all needs , including a range of remote controlled golf trolleys.

If you want to play your best, you should definitely consider getting one right away, and start to enjoy walking the course with no strain on back, shoulders etc.

It’s a wonderful feeling to finish the round fresh and able to perform to your best. It’s the other guy who is handicapping himself  by straining away , whilst you stroll along , relaxed and fresh. Enjoy !!

Many things in our life are tiresome ,but often solutions are both simple and close to hand.

One example would be the activity of lugging a heavy bag full of clubs around the course ,complete with waterproofs,drinks,food and a supply of balls. A full bag weighs around 20 kilogrammes , putting a strain on your back, shoulders, arms and neck. So stop carrying that heavy load and let an electric trolley do the work for you. Using one of these carts is about improving your game by literally taking  the weight of your shoulders and allowing you to concentrate on your swing.

Those that have bought an electric trolley are finding it is the perfect playing partner  and more and more players are realising just how important it is to their game. There was a time when using a Protrolley was a luxury , but not anymore. Usage is now commonplace and you rarely see a group without at least one user.

An electric golf trolley, as the name suggests, is a battery operated automatic cart that could be either manual or remote control. It provides easy transportation of clubs from tee to green and allows a normal upright posture while walking. This reduces the risk of strains and injuries. This also provides added comfort and helps the golfer to concentrate on his swing.

There are many benefits of using a powered caddy over a traditional pull or push trolley. With the manual option, you are required to walk around in a bent forward and twisted position. Which after a while can in my experience cause back and shoulder pain, thus negating the benefit of a trolley? The best option is a powered caddy; an electric trolley will transport your clubs from tee to green with ease, whilst allowing you to walk behind the cart in a normal upright position, gently guiding the trolley at you own pace.

The most common of these injuries is the lower-back or spinal injury, closely followed by the left wrist and shoulder. At least three out of every five golfers experience back injuries at some point of time or another. The primary causes of such injuries are due to poor swing mechanics, poor physical fitness and sporadic play.

Owning an electric cart doesn’t have to cost the earth, they are compact, come complete with a range of accessories and cost little more than a quality traditional trolley.
