Wow. It looks beautiful. Is it a public course?

Don't forget to watch the finals of The Big Break tomorrow night. It's going to be an epoch battle. You have Carling who is beautiful and femine vs. some unattractive, masculine South American girl. It's going to be a war out there.

It's public and walking only.

The last time I walked was in high-school. There is no way I could carry my bag for 18 holes. That bag weighs more than me. I'd have to switch to a small bag for the day if I was going to walk. I think I would still get tired after 9 holes, even with a small bag.

I imagine that the golfers use caddies.

Caddies are available and optional. The club itself rents out pull carts that are lightweight enough that they allow golfers to pull them across tee boxes and greens to ensure a good pace of play.

I've never used one of those pull-carts. Do they work well? I would have to think it's a lot easier than carrying the bag.

I know they are obviously simple to use. I was asking whether or not it is much less strenuous and tiring to use a pull-cart rather than carrying your bag. I would have to think it might be somewhat tiring pulling the cart up a hill. But it also quite tiring to carry your bag up a hill.

GPK 08-23-2010 05:06 PM

push carts are tons better than pull carts.

I'm guessing you haven't played in awhile?

I figured I answered that.

Is it easier to carry a heavy box or pull it on a dolly?

Not strenuous at all & its easier going up a hill then down the hill.

I still play once in a while but I always take a cart. I played down at Del Mar a couple of times the last month in charity golf tournaments.
