10 Best Golf Push Carts Reviewed to Ease Your Golfer’s Life

Compact and lower to the ground than most push cart, the Clicgear 3.5+ weighs just under 18 pounds but is made with aircraft-grade aluminum for one of the strongest frames you’ll find on a push cart.

For the Clicgear 3.5+, the hand brake is convenient and easily accessible. Some golfers prefer a hand brake over a foot brake because it is simple to use and they don’t have to reach for the pedal with their foot, forcing the golfer to have an unbalanced footing on a hill.

The storage on this push cart is commendable with a net basket that can hold small equipment or valuables. Also on the handle section, the golfer has access to a scorecard, golf ball, pencil, and tee holder.

When putting the Clicgear 3.5+ to use on the course, we found the large wheels kept the ride smooth and allowed our clubs to escape that dreaded clacking sound of the clubheads bouncing into each other.

Once your round is over, a slide-to-close mechanism folds the cart down to just 24 inches tall for storage anywhere inside or outside of your vehicle. Even with the cart reaching close to twenty pounds, the tight fold of the push cart makes it a dream to lift for golfers of any size.

The cart has been designed to utilize two 11-inch tires on the back and one 8-inch tire on the front. The tires have been outfitted with ball bearings that make rolling very steady and have superb traction when dealing with rough terrain.

What we loved about the CaddyTek is that the foot brake was very dependable, no matter what situation we put the cart in during our round. Whether we were on a downslope or walking up a hill, the cart was a statue once the brake was engaged. And when it was time to start walking, a quick press of the pedal had us rolling in seconds.

Features on the cart include a tall umbrella holder when you want to keep your clubs dry or stay out of the sun. Also, a mesh net under the handle keeps your valuables handy such as your cell phone or wallet. And finally, a beverage holder rests above the two back wheels for carrying your favorite beverage on a warm summer day.

This push cart certainly excelled in our mobility and durability tests and we felt that it was the ideal cart for golfers wanting a mid-level cart at an advantageous price.

Starting with the construction of the cart, this model has two-wheels, a long spine that locks in the bag and holds the scorecard, plus an extra-wide wheel base. To rest the cart, you have to ground the front of the cart, so on wet days, the bottom of your bag could get a little damp in tall grass.

The wheels give the cart a wide berth that helps with stability and smoothness and also can come off with a clip-on system that does help with storage in the winter months.

If you are looking for a heavy-duty push cart that can carry a large bag and handle quick stopping with a dependable foot brake, then this isn’t the push cart for you. This push cart is reasonably priced and will only run you the cost of a green fee at your local course, so golfers looking for more features should be advised to really do their homework if they are leaning toward taking home this model.

Lightweight and affordable, the Jef World of Golf Deluxe Push Cart is great for beginning or senior golfers looking to keep their bank account healthy when finding a cart to assist their walking on the course.

One of the perks of the Explorer V8 is that it folds to a size of fewer than 24 inches in length and a width just a touch over 16 inches. Two latches are all that stand between you and breaking down the cart when your round is over, and you’re ready to head back home.

Additional features include a slender scorecard holder, a convenient storage compartment, and areas to hold your beverage, cell phone, and GPS device. A mesh net area under the scorecard area is nice for keys and wallet.

An umbrella holder is secured to the side of the handle and doesn’t seem to add undue burden to the balance of the cart when used. The CaddyTek cart rounds out the special features with two pockets, one for larger gear and another for keeping beverages cold.

One thing that we didn’t particularly like coming straight from the box was the narrow wheel base. Even with four tires, the push cart was a little top-heavy for our taste, but an adjustable front wheel feature, allows the golfer to widen that wheel width for more stability.

Great for senior golfers that want the stability provided by a four-wheel cart, the CaddyTek Explorer V8 Superlite 4-Wheel Push Cart is a high performer that deserves your attention.

Weighing just under 19 pounds, the cart folds out with the click of one button, making it very convenient when you need to get onto the course quickly.

One of the small details that we really liked on the CaddyTek Caddylite cart is that the front wheel is as large as the back wheel. While that may not seem important, we felt the symmetry of all three wheels provided a smooth roll that kept our clubs from jostling on the links.

When it comes time to stop the cart, the company’s patented foot brake is more than capable of handling the job. During our testing, we noted that the brake always kept the cart locked in place and we were never concerned that our clubs would run away on us.

For storage purposes, the cart breaks down quickly, becoming a small contained unit that measures 28 inches high and 16 inches wide.

Special extras included a patented basket with a cooler pocket for keeping beverages cold, a small mesh net basket on the handle and holders for your umbrella, cell phone, or GPS device.

Boasting a muscular steel frame, the push cart is aided by two-foot brakes that guarantee that you won’t have to worry about shifting or rolling when you need the cart to stay still.

One of the highlights of this seated version of the popular Tangkula Push Cart is the wide three-wheel base. The three wheels work in tandem to hold up anyone sitting on the seat with confidence.

Let’s talk about that seat for a bit. The nine-inch seat is great when used in combination with the umbrella holder, giving golfers of all ages a shaded place to rest for a bit and regain their energy.

When folded up, the Tangkula seat measures 33 inches long and 20 inches wide. That is one of the larger carts we’ve tested when folded, but we found that the Tangkula isn’t bulky or cumbersome when you need to place it into storage.

But when you are ready for long-term storage, the three wheels all can be removed to make shelving the unit hassle-free.

For golfers who just want a streamlined push cart, this seated cart may be a bit much. But with solid construction and fun accessories, the Tangkula Push Cart with Seat is one of the best push carts on the market for low-handicappers looking for a few extra features.

Beginning with the wheels, the Bag Boy Express has a wide wheel area that promotes stability and strength.

When it comes time to store the push cart, all you have to do is follow two quick steps and the cart will become compact for painless storage. One of the coolest features of this push cart is that you can keep your clubs on the cart when it is folded. That is a feature that most push carts can’t even begin to manage, but the Bag Boy Express handles it with simplicity and elegance.

The company’s Top-Low technology shines on the Express DLX as it keeps your bags firmly attached to push cart, no matter how bumpy the ride is on the course.

Another highlight is the fully integrated handle area that features a console that can hold cups, cellphones, and even golf balls.

Also featuring an adjustable handle that can set at four different heights and a foot brake system that is dependable, the Bag Boy Express DLX Pro Push Cart received very high marks across all categories of our testing.

As the name states on the cart, the Qwik-Fold 3.0 is designed to fold up in a snap. Once it is folded into its storage shape, the cart measures just under 30 inches long and has a width slightly over 16 inches.

If we had a chief complaint about the three-wheel system on this push cart, it is that the front tire is fixed and can be difficult to swivel when needing to change directions. This type of wheel design forces the golfer to lift the front wheel and rotate the cart to find the walking line. That hassle can be aggravating over the course of 18 holes, as you do it again and again.

As far as the limited special features go on the cart, you can expect an umbrella, cup and tee holder. All the features contained on this push cart are standard, and these versions certainly don’t raise the bar in comparison.

The tires are wide and help propel the cart without much pushing, making it one of the easier carts we handled during our testing.

Easy to fold when you are wrapping up your round but also a workhorse while on the course, the Qwik-Fold 3.0 Wheel Push Cart may not dazzle you once it comes from the box, but it is a reliable tool that will make your day on the links much easier.

When looking at the tires, we found that the back tires are just over 10 inches in diameter, while the front tire is around 9.5 inches. During our testing, we found the three wheels to roll without much problem, giving the golfer a stable roll that keeps your clubs from jumping in their bag.

The length from the back tires to the front tire is a bit longer than your typical three-wheel push cart but that distance, while adding a little material, does make the push cart more reliable over bumpy terrain.

The extra features of the cart include your standard umbrella, tee, and scorecard holder. One of the features that really stood out during our testing was the adjustable strap system that may seem a little flimsy but actually worked well at locking our clubs into the holders.

Another great feature is that the handle can move and adjust to any height level, making this push cart ideal for golfers of any skill level. When it comes time to fold up the cart, you’ll be impressed by the simple two-step approach that folds the cart into compact and easy to store square of materials.

With the ability to hold larger bags, we felt the Tangkula 3 Wheel Push Cart is especially a wonderful choice for the low handicapper that might want to carry a heavier bag with more equipment onto the course.

The brake on the Quad XL is handle mounted and works so easily that a small child could activate it on the course. We found the brake very reliable and worked well at keeping the cart locked in position regardless of where we were at on the hole.

Another strong special feature of this four-wheel push cart is the integrated beverage holder. We noticed that this model used a gripping rubber star to grab the container and keep it secure while rolling. It is a feature that most would overlook but making sure your water or soda won’t rattle around while walking is important.

In addition to an umbrella holder, the cart also has a large accessory bag that attaches under the handle. The bag is large enough to carry a rolled-up jacket or a single rain gear item.

The Bad Boy Quad XL Push Cart is especially great for senior golfers who want the stability of a wide wheel base with a foundation that can handle a heavy set of clubs and the ability to fold up for storage in just a few seconds.
