Hi, I’m possibly in the market for a new electric trolley. Currently have the Motocaddy M1 which I’ve been very pleased with (mainly due to size when folded). Last winter a number of courses wouldn’t allow their winter wheels (the hedgehog design). They’d only allow the Powacaddy design (wide, flat and hexagonal is the best way I can describe them).
What is your experience re acceptance of winter wheel design at your course or courses (UK) you play please? If the wheels weren’t a consideration I’d buy a Motocaddy again. A few times last year I ended up paying to rent an electric trolley at an away pro shop as my winter wheels weren’t acceptable to the grounds staff (which is fair enough).
At one club they actually preferred normal wheels to the hedgehog design. I’d imagine in the future Motocaddy will have to make a different design if courses do start prohibiting the hedgehogs. They did sell the hexagonal design years back but I can never seem to find them (auction sites etc). Certainly can’t find them new anywhere, perhaps they didn’t have long term rights to the design?
Thanks.
