There is a reason that many golfers choose to walk the course these days. You get more exercise, a better sense of structure and, in most cases, you can enjoy a more relaxed pace that allows you to enjoy the circuit instead of rushing through it. And, perhaps best of all, there’s no cart fee!
Only evil? Carrying your bag for four hours or more can be hard on your back and shoulders.
This is where a good pushchair comes in. Today’s models are lightweight, compact and include features like built-in storage, drink holders, umbrella mounts and a simple one-step setup that makes getting on the course easier than ever. And while motorized buggies are gaining popularity, we’re sticking with human-powered models in this roundup (we’ll cover the car models soon.)
Whether you’re looking for premium performance, an off-road buggy or a self-opening buggy, we’ve got you covered below.
Here are five of the best strollers available right now:
Bag Boy Nitron Push Cart
If there’s one pushchair that’s perfect for convenience, it’s the Bag Boy Nitron. Its nitrogen-powered auto-open mechanism opens in seconds without effort, making setup one of the easiest you’ll find. Lift and pop! It’s open. No screws or bolts, just a simple movement and you’re good to go. At just under 17 pounds, it’s incredibly light while being incredibly stable. Bag Boy’s Top-Lok system also securely locks compatible golf bags in place, eliminating bag twisting during your round.
1 thing we like the most: The automatic opening system is really satisfying!

The Big Max Blade Trio
If storage space is at a premium, the Big Max Blade Trio deserves a serious look. Its flat folding design folds down smaller than almost any pushchair on the market, making it easy to fit into even the tightest trunk. Despite its small size, it rolls well and offers the stability and storage that golfers expect from a push cart. It comes in different colors too.
1 thing we like the most: If you have a small trunk, this pushchair folds up to save as much space as possible.
