Push Trolleys & Pencil Bags

With some golf clubs removing the option to hire a trolley due to Covid-19 restrictions, here’s some affordable solutions to make sure you can still get out on the course.

As well as making sure you can play golf if you encounter those restrictions, buying your own golf trolley can save you money in the long run, while buying a lightweight pencil bag can be a great alternative to heavier traditional golf bags and remove the cost of a trolley altogether. Here are some of the best affordable options.

Push trolleys

Push trolleys have three wheels and are the most popular trolleys among golfers as they are much sturdier and easier to manoeuvre than two-wheeled pull trolleys, and most come with brakes.

Motocaddy Z1 Push Trolley

Perfect for budget conscious golfers looking for a simple, lightweight (6kg) push trolley. Features include three handle height settings and friction-free oversize wheels that can be taken off quickly for easy storage, plus a two-step folding system.

Pencil bags

Pencil bags are the lightest and easiest to carry golf bags. Even more lightweight than stand bags and way lighter than the larger traditional cart or tour bags. They have enough storage to carry a full set of clubs with pockets for balls, tees, a waterproof jacket and water. They come with shoulder straps that make them easy to carry and are suited to golfers who prefer to walk during their round or don’t use a trolley.

The lightest of Callaway’s golf bags, it has a 3-way top with full-length dividers to keep your clubs separate, and three pockets, one of which is a full-length apparel pocket. The double strap makes it easy to carry, while the water-resistant underside should keep your kit dry.

Ping Moonlite Carry Bag

The lightest of the Ping golf bags, it has six pockets, including a water bottle pocket and the 4-way rigid top provides enough room for 14 clubs.
