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 !!!

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.

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 !

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 !!

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.

Why ?  Well everybody in sport knows that fitness is important , and just because golf is considered a sedentary game , it does not mean that fitness does not count. The fresher you are at the end of the round , the more likely you are to finish off that good round with a strong finish  rather than wondering why it was another one that “got away”.

Fully laden a carry bag can weigh-in anywhere between 20-30lbs; an enormous contributor to the build up of fatigue. Think of carrying this weight over 4 hours and 5 miles and you can begin to appreciate the exceptional stamina and concentration levels required if you’re to give your best performance from the first tee through to the 18^th green.

Many golfers fail to appreciate just how much time their golf clubs spend , NOT in their hands, but in their golf bag, slung across the shoulders, while they are walking between shots , and therefore sapping their strength. With a Protrolley electric trolley you can just walk along , saving that energy , just as the pro’s do with their caddies. The caddies also get the yardages for their players , but we can cover that with one of our range of GPS devices , which tell you at a glance how far you have to go and what hazards lie ahead.

You will still get the exercise of walking the course , but its much more fun finishing fresh and shooting lower scores. We also sell a wide range of push trolleys which are proven to be better for your body than carrying a bag.

Get one today , or at least have a trial. I think you will be amazed at the difference !

If you want to save your back, an electric  golf trolley is well worth investing in – using one instead of carrying your bag can improve your health and your game.

Invest in an electric  trolley or a push trolley – not one of the pull variety.

Golf may seem like a gentle sport, but lugging a great big bag stuffed with clubs over one shoulder, then walking 18-holes with this dead weight, can in fact be brutal. If you don’t invest in a good quality electric golf trolley or push trolley, carrying your golf bag can cause terrible back pain and strain, which will affect the technique of your swing and could leave you vulnerable to injury. The most common injury in the male professional golfer is in the back, and four out of five golfers, at whatever level, will suffer low-back pain at some point in their lives.

Electric and push trolleys, save your back

All golfers are aware of the problems of back pain and how it can affect their game. Carrying your own bag instead of utilizing a specifically designed golf trolley can lead to unnecessary strain on your back. Employing an electric or push trolley could in fact improve your game – carrying your bag not only affects your back but can be exhausting. Using a golf trolley  means you can save all your physical energy for your golf swing.

A pull trolley can cause you to twist your back without realising it, even causing long term problems . Whereas a push trolley means you can maintain good posture. The addition of a front wheel to most makes, means they are much easier to use. Some roll so freely they have to have a brake fitted !!

Get fit

Improved athleticism will help protect you from damaging your back while strengthening your muscles for the game. Although you might think carrying a golf bag will make you fitter than wheeling one on a golf trolley , you’d be mistaken – the best place to get fit is in the gym using correct equipment under expert supervision. Slinging a bag over your shoulder and suffering around the course will only cause injury and take away the pleasure of the game.
Strength, flexibility and endurance all play a part with effective warm-ups, stretching and core-strengthening work essential.

Avoid back problems

How can the recreational golfer take the first step in the prevention of back injury?

• Invest in an electric golf trolley or a push model from Protrolley – this will save strain on your back
• Get fit – stronger and flexible muscles will improve and protect your golf swing
• Get professional lessons – the correct technique with your golf swing will save you from injury
