I just thought this would be intesting to see who here drives a cart, uses a pull cart, or carries there bag. Or maybe ur real lucky and have a caddie :p

I myself use a pull cart or carry.

Never a pull cart. Sometimes carry. The older i get(bad knees) the more i ride.

Im half and half...carrying and riding...depending on the season.

The furnace should turn on here any week now and something tells me I'll be Behind the Wheel more than On the Strap than usual...

It's around 25 bucks for a cart here. So I walk. Get exercise and save some cash!

I use to walk but my back has caused me ride for a few years. It's also very hot here in the summer so I carry a cooler with several bottles of water and that would be tough to do if I was walking.

Or it could just be that I'm lazy and a wimp. :D

It depends on the circumstances. When I play in my lowball, I ride with the other guys. Otherwise I try to walk as much as possible. Due to the mountainf courses and exertion involves, I use a pull cart when walking.

It's 110 here just now so no way am I walking!

When home, though, it's walk and carry unless the course is too long/hilly.

Kingsbarns, for example, is a monster walk with long holes and some fair old hikes up and down dunes with some good old distances between green and tee. So it's a trolley every time. Well, except the first time when I didn't realise. Thought I'd be a macho-carrier. Took me a week to recover.

Always carried when I was in college and for a couple of years after. Now I almost always ride. Sometimes use a pull cart when I'm with guys who want to walk.

Unless they make me take a cart I always carry. I stay more into the game that way and even on bad shots I can usually find my ball because I walk right to it, with riding you loose perspective and get lost talking to your partner.

I alternate between ride and pull. We have a couple of courses here that are very hilly and tough to walk, so we usually ride those. If the course requires us to ride, we ride then also. Other than that I pull. I have no desire to carry. Walking with a club in my hand pulling my bag along keeps me in the rythym of a round.

Well its always 90+ here so I always ride. Not alot of shade at my course unless you like hanging out with the snakes.
