(Finally got round to reconnecting to Usenet. Forza eternal September!)

I'm trying to find some information about about using the control
mechanism of a "follow me" golf cart to control a "garden trolley".

Anyone done this?

More info.

A garden trolley, for example:

https://www.amazon.com/Uyittour-Foldable-Collapsible-Folding-Shopping/dp/B0CHY3QTTH?th=1

Would be a lovely thing to have. To go shopping, camping, walking etc.
The only problem is I'd have to push/pull/steer it.

So, without making a giant leap, it occurs to me I could re-purpose an
electric follow me golf cart to do all the boring stuff.

No, not the kind you sit in. Just the trolley. Like this:

https://www.amazon.com/MGI-Zip-Navigator-Electric-Caddy/dp/B08DK8X381?th=1

I'm really wonder if I could source the motor + computer control
mechanism from the golf cart to drive the garden trolley.

Thanks for reading. Any ideas gratefully received.

PS: I hate golf.

One of the "kickstarter" type sites has been advertising exactly what
you describe. Unfortunately I can't find a link.

So do I. No matter how many times a week I go out I still fluff the
same shots, and I envy those that have a trolley that will go to the
other side of the green without my having to hold its handlebars.

One of my favourite photos is one I took at the Concours de'Elegance at
The Lodge, Pebble Beach, Monterey, California, in, I believe, 1987. It
was taken at the Pebble Beach Polo Fields, and clearly says:

"No Unauthorised Golf".

A sentiment which should be universal, in my
opinion.

The annual Councours is held on the 18th green of the Pebble Beach Golf
Course, an excellent use for it. At least they can't play golf for the
whole day.

I'd check whether it was legal. My first thought is that you may find
that it becomes a Pedestrian Controlled Vehicle and needs to be
registered, insured and for the user to have a valid driving licence.

Any pebble beach, I'd say, is the best place to play golf.

When I saw how the European Union was developing, it was very obvious what they had in mind was not democratic. In Britain you vote for a government so the government has to listen to you, and if you don't like it you can change it.

Here is an example of a box on wheels.

https://www.bostonmagazine.com/health/2019/10/15/gita-robot/

Pricing:

https://piaggiofastforward.com/shop

For that price, you may be able to get an electric cargo bicycle.

The Pebble Beach one is expensive:
https://www.golfbreaks.com/en-gb/holidays/monterey/the-lodge-at-pebble-beach/

And the Concours is a chance for the hoi polloi to walk all over the
green of the 18th hole. For an entry fee of course. Currently $495,
pre-booked. When I first went in 1994, the entry fee was $50, no booking
required.

How the other half live.

Thanks for the link.

IMO: over-engineered, too expensive, can't fold away for storage, and
will need to be powered to stay upright.

Apart from that...
