Combo Cart

by

gocartIn 1999 Sun Mountain was at the forefront of the golf push cart revolution with the introduction of Speed Cart. Speed Cart was the first push cart on the market that folded down with no assembly (or disassembly) required and was lightweight and small enough to be transported to and fro the course with ease.

In 2009, Sun Mountain brought additional innovation to the walking cart market with the first four-wheeled golf push cart. Micro-Cart folds 25% smaller and weighs 20% less while still carrying golf bags from the smallest stand bags to the largest cart bags.

For 2013, Sun Mountain is once again introducing a ground-breaking golf walking cart with the golf bag and cart in one – Combo cart. Combo will offer the club and accessory space of a cart bag and the ease and ergonomic benefits of a push cart all in one package. Combo will weigh 18 lbs. and fold down to about the same size as our C-130 cart bag.

Given the integrated nature of the bag and cart, Combo will offer an unheralded degree of stability and will actually weigh less than the combined weight of a cart bag and push cart.

The plan is for a summer 2013 introduction at a retail price of $399.

Look for more news on date of availability as we get closer to summer.

Sun Mountain Golf Push Cart Makes Walking Easier

Mike Bailey of WorldGolf.com recently posted a story about his first-hand experience using a Sun Mountain Speed Cart SV1 golf push cart.

In the article, Mike asserts, “The best part about using the SV1, however, is that it brings golf back to its roots. Being able to walk from the tee directly to the fairway and the green is the way golf was meant to be played — not from the sides of the course and the cart path.” [Read more…]

Sun Mountain Provides Golf Push Cart for World Record Attempt

Sun Mountain is proud to have provided a Speed Cart golf push cart for music industry veteran Jimmy Daniel who is currently embarking on an ambitious journey to break the Guinness World Record for “Most Rounds Of Golf In One Year.” This is a spirited challenge to play and walk most of the 1,000 rounds in 366 straight days (with leap year), but the mission of breaking the world record is secondary to what he is hopeful to accomplish.

Daniel is using this courageous challenge to launch Heart of the Green, a unique, grassroots organization using the game of golf as a platform to raise awareness to reduce deaths from cardiac arrest and heart attacks.

It is the goal of Heart of the Green to take their campaign to 10,000 golf communities, courses and clubs where millions of men and women of all ages, all nationalities, in every demographic, visit every day of the year.

Visit www.heartofthegreen.org for more information and updates throughout the campaign.

Golf Fitness: Improve your health and your golf game; walk the course with Sun Mountain golf push carts

Numerous studies over the years have documented the health benefits of walking the golf course. Now more than ever, people are realizing that one need not sign up for an ‘exercise’ class to get in shape. The golf game itself can indeed be the exercise class.

A recent study on golf fitness found that walking a round of golf offers the same benefits as a step-aerobics class. Another study documents that 2 rounds of golf per week puts one over the 2,500 calories burned per week goal/threshold.

Sun Mountain’s golf products are designed to make walking the course easier today than ever before, allowing you to reap the full health benefits of playing golf. [Read more…]

Micro-Cart: The Latest Sun Mountain Golf Push Cart

by

Micro-Cart™ from Sun Mountain is a new-look, four wheel walking cart that folds 25% smaller and weighs 20% less than leading golf push carts. Tipping the scales at the slight 13 lbs. and folding down to the scant 52 cubic inches, Micro-Cart is a very appropriate name. Its small folded footprint and its light weight make the cart easy to get in and out of a vehicle. Also, due to the patented four-wheel design, this push cart for golf has a low center of gravity which results in superior stability on the course. Micro-Cart comes with no assembly required and folds and unfolds in two easy motions. New for 2011, Micro-Cart comes standard with the E-Z Latch for hassle-free handle height adjustment. Micro-Cart is available now with a full-suggested retail price of $219. For the retailer nearest you, call 800-227-9224 or visit www.sunmountain.com. [Read more…]
