I have seen some creative Disc Golf carts out there. Disc Golfers have made carts out of baby carriages, ball golf carts, old file cabinets, etc. Will you send me a pic of your rig? I want to post them on my website.
Thanks,
TooNA

Sweet rig!!
Kinda reminds me of Scandinavian Furniture! Is this your design? One thing that I like is the fact that you can have a full size towel and it doesn't drag on the ground the way it would with a standard golf bag.
The other thing that stikes me as cool is the seat.
Simple. Effective. Awesome.

Good for a dry climate for sure. Would be frustrating in the rain. I too like the seat, simple and beautiful.

In the rain everything is mushed. Those wheels look like they could handle alot. I suppose if it gets too bad you would just resort to a bag.
I am looking foward to checking out more rigs though!

The best options I have seen have a place to secure a bag in the cart. If the course is cart friendly, you take the cart, if it is too rough, you grab the bag.

You also need to consider bad weather when designing a cart. The discs and towels need to be protected from rain and mud.

Protomag .... that's gotta be a Chatelle designed rig! Nice to see that you finally got over the Igloo supply problem. Both of my original Diskarts are holding up just fine.

I wonder if anyone has tried to secure an umbrella to this cart - or any other ones...

What kind of Diskarts? Do they have coolers (igloos) on them?

I use my waterproof version (with umbrellaholder) in the rain.

That is what "The Great Timmy Gill" uses.

I have looked for the box before. Is it a tool box? What brand and where did you get it.

I know Timmy has a sweet set-up. I watched him putt from under his umbrella.

he bought the first one that I sold......after people saw him using it, people around here decided it was ok to use a cart. Before that people didnt want anything to do with them. I ended up building about 140 of them. Igloo quit making the container about 4 years ago :(

I'm still working the bugs out , but here is a look of my new rear seat deck lid.
Doubles as a cooler holder or 3rd / 4th seat.

Here is with suspension seats. Not sure if you can see DVD , MP3 player with screen.

I got tired of lugging a bag around during the really hot summer months, so I decided to do a little engineering of my own. This ended up being free since I had all of the components, but never the less it works.

http://home.comcast.net/~cs_lastboyscout/Golf_Cart_Collage.jpg

Built using one of those folding golf carts, some nice water sealed wood and some hinges for the bag shelf and the cooler/milk crate shelf. Also nice having the scorecard holder, and it has to golfball holders that work well for holding towels as well. As you can see, I also added a nice mounting point for a cheap folding chair umbrella. It works to keep the bag and towels dry, and I usually have an empty milkcrate attached when I know the course needs a little litter picked up.

Igloo quit making the container about 4 years ago :(



That sucks! Have you found anything that is half as good? The cart that Timmy pulls is perfect.

no I havent, everything else I've seen is to flimsy and weak compared to those Igloo packmasters. As soon as a suitable replacement comes along, I'll start making them again.

Golf Carts ................
Good call.............

I think I'm going to skip the Bag thing all together and get a Real Golf Cart.............Hollywood Baby !!!! :cool:
Check these Disc Golf carriers out.................Yes , they can carry all your plastic and maybe a couple of portables too !!!!
I like this Quad Cart.

Now I have seen alot of guys using these , converted similar to the picture posted above , with a seat /chair converted / folding /attached to the front wheel , but free standing ,so there is no pressure on the front tire !!!!
http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/golfcartplace_1901_2336796

How much??

I tried making one like that! My woodworking skills sucked so bad it looked like it was used in a Mad Max film!

The trick is to make one that folds small enough so you can check it with your bags when you Fly around the World playing Disc Golf !!!! :D

Here's my cart that I built. I wanted something where I could grab my bag if necessary to go out into the rough. The only thing that I don't like about it is that I have to take the box off the cart (it is mounted with wing nuts) when I want to throw it in the trunk between rounds.

TooNA you said you were collecting these for your website. What is the address of your site?

This is my Dad's cart. He used the standard golf cart and cut the milkcrate to make a frame for his bag. Then he can pull the bag off if he needs to. Also, the umbrella is attached to about a 2' piece of pvc which slides inside the larger pvc tube on the cart, so it is secure, and can cover 3-4 people in the rain, plus his bag, with no handling or moving it. Of course there's a cooler for beverages, and a bungee net for extra coats, etc.

I am trying to make the website a nesletter type website. I thought that an article on the different types of carts would be a great idea. So far I am impressed with the response.
:cool:

If no one objects, I would like to post these on my website. Let me know if you DON'T want them posted.
Thanks,
TooNA

Many of those old golf pull cart can be found at yard sales, especially around retired ,elderly areas. As for the milk cart, they are good and sturdy, but you can also use the hand baskets from the grocery store.

Toona
Those are some far out pics, I have the pleasure of volenteering at this years AM Worlds. I have allready seen soo many different carts. Some easy as a golf bag cart, all the way to 3 wheel bycyle. :D

Send them to [email protected] I cant tell you how much I appreciate this!
Thanks

I am gonna make one at some point ...

You can post mine. Just make sure you give credit.

Thanks guys. Although I am a neophyte when it comes to web pages the carts are going to be a hit I am sure.
I posted the pics today.
Did I get everyones?

I didnt post this one because its small. The cart looks cool though. Got a bigger pic?

I'm seriously thinking about purchasing a push /pull golf cart.
I have seen two wheel , three wheel and four wheel versions.

Any recommendations ?

I recommend any of the rigs you see here! I am gonna try my hand at the pull cart.

I got to see Mark Ellis' rig he built at a tourney a few weeks ago. See if he'll post up plans for how he did that because it's just sweet. It's 100% home made (from the looks of it), doubles as a stool, allows easy disc access, is light weight, and looks cool too.

Picture ?

Picture ?



I was too hung over to manage camera use.

:eek: :D Is it possible for him to post a picture ?
I like the idea of having a place to sit as well !!!!

I think Mike Raley may have made that cart for Mark Ellis. Could be wrong.

Go to bagboycompany.com
I have one,you can add on a 3rd wheel,which will hold a seat,umbrella holder.The way the frame on it is made you can unhook your quad shock and hook you bag right to the frame of the cart,no drilling or anything hook and go!Works good,you can break it down and have it in your car in 5 sec.

Have you guys seen the Cool Cartz being sold on eBay? Very cool. It's a tube, so same shape as ball golf bag, nice fit to cart. Hold 16 discs, lots of room for drinks and top section for keys,........

Link? Link? Link? :D

You can go into Ebay, do search under disc golf, then go to highest price, they are $99 Buy it Now. I've requested one made with black top & bottom with grey center, Silver & Black baby!

With it being the same size as a normal golf bag they fit nicely.

I can't find it on ebay. Can you go there and copy and
paste the link to here? :confused:

Cool Carts (http://cgi.ebay.com/CoolCartz-disc-golf-bag-cart-basket-orc-wraith-buzz_W0QQitemZ130016626330QQihZ003QQcategoryZ79803 QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

Thanks man.

How are you gonna make this a mobile cart?

Open the link above that Kschafer posted and you'll see. They strap right onto the cart like a normal golf club bag. Then there are 3 compartments, the fabric is pulled back to open. Top area for keys, wallet, ........... Middle area will hold 16 discs, slide in like a CD holder. Bottom area for water bottle's ect.

This is my rig. Works great! See it at George's site.

Thanks man. The mini skate board belongs to Matt.
I gotta wrecked 1995 Acura Integra for sale tho. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Yes! Post them here also!

I like the simplicity. May I post it when I update my site this weekend?

Sure. Post them both. I sent them to you in an email
last night. It should be from [email protected]

took a few days but I finally got the pic...
http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i314/superq16504/myride.jpg

works out great kid in front bag on the back, all stores easily in my 2005 scion XA...My only problem is that when I have rounds without the rig I dont play as well since I am carrying the bag :confused:

It'll balance even better when the kid is bigger and the bag can go in the seat.

no doubt, the way she loves to go I am waiting for her to be pushing me and the bag around...

19 months is a little young for caddy training, plus she is busy most days with her disc golf training... she hit her first putt at 16months (not bad since she couldnt walk till 15 months)

I just bought a Golf Cart on Ebay for $ 60.00

It has three wheels , golf seat, umbrella holder and cooler.
I think it's called a Bag Boy Express LS.
Anyone know about these ?

Donny O.

Looks Good To Me.
http://www.bagboycompany.com/products/expressls.gif

I make my own carts from scratch. This cart was in production when I took the pic. Currently it has 10 inch tires that are inflatable and is painted yellow with red doors. It also has an canopy over the top for rain. 1/4 inch plywood wieghs approximately 15 lbs. The handle and tires come off in under a minute for storage in a trunk. Holds 15 discs with two storage areas. You can sit on the top of it as a chair.

http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k208/lyleoross/cartonflowers.jpg

All my carts are made in a triangle format, similar to what you see with ball golf carts. The total matterials cost was less than $50 but labor is a bunch. If you have any tools at all, even a circular saw and a drill motor, you can make your own over the winter in the garage.

Outrageous, Q! I just picked up one of these jogging strollers (Baby Trend Expedition LE ~$200 new) at a garage sale (sans baby, of course!) for $50. Is smooooth as silk, has 3 different brakes, a lower compartment for a softside cooler, DG bag and a gallon of water fit nicely into the fold-down babyseat area...and the whole thing breaks down enough to fit behind the front seat of my Nissan Kingkab P/U. NOT lugging around my 20ish count DG bag with water is suhweet! :cool:

Just made the last 4 of this kind since Igloo quit making the Packmaster line (and destroyed the mold for that matter) :(

So the obvious question is: are they up for sale?

they were sold before they were even built.....waiting list goes 3 years deep. I really wish I could build more, but i havent found a suitable replacement container (everything the right size is to flimsy)

Somebody should make a caddy out of a store mannequin that holds the discs in a set of quads on it's back. Creepy cool.

Matt, you need to get up to Yadkinville to play the formal version of Mike Stack's Cranberry Disco. For special occasions The Outhouse Hole and the creek guantlet hole are attended by scantily clad "models" Chlorine and Ammonia. Probably just their "professional" names though... ;) /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif :D

I am looking for a new disc cart (caddie). One of those tube kind. Has anyone made any lately?

I did get one of these from the Christmas sale at Bag Boy.

now who can top that one?

My rig competes with that one. I don't have any pics though, let me see what I can do...

Hey Cheryl,
Those tube style cool carts are available online at 4handz.net. I also have his phone number if you p.m. me. He makes alot of custom carts also.

and one more for this old thread...

Does this fold up? If so can we get a pic?

i don't think it folds, it belongs to bravo he built it

I have the tube style on the Bag-Boy LS pictured a couple pages ago. I just painted it to give a little more weatehr resistance . I'll snap a pic tonight, added a 6=pack igloo cooler while priming/painting &amp; a replacement umbrella holder (the cooler was really needed to offset tip over due to umbrella) Anyone that was at IOS #4 yesterday got to see my rig. it gets tons of compliments. best part? I picked up the tube/cart in a trade for a bag/straps/discs that I had about $45 into!

OK, I did have a pic handy (pre-paint, post cooler addidtion)
http://img501.imageshack.us/img501/3560/cartwcoolernopaintyy6.jpg

this cart used to fold nicely until i put the seat on it.
it is still a work in progress.
it will carry more than enough stuff for one golfer just in case it does start raining.

From Heritage Park Plantation, FL. This disc golfer is obviously an enthusiast

I have no idea where the attachment is!!! It was a sweet cart

Here is the one I built from scratch...:)



http://C:\Users\Porsche\Pictures\New folder (2)\IMAG0619.jpg

Here is the one I built...:)

Another View and it does fold down to fit in a trunk...:)

Here's my GoCart. I painted the wheels. Added mini-UltraStar hubcaps. You can also see I added a Phenix Disc Sports HardCore bag putter pocket on the back.
I really think these are the best things going. I've tried and seen others. This cart has everything I need stool, storage and umbrella. I can rig the umbrella with two Velcro straps to the handles and keep it over me, my card and my discs. I recently went to FL from IL. To avoid heinous shipping charges, I was able to break the cart down and get it all into one suitcase!!! It is expensive, but SOOO worth it.

Hi can you repost in my new thread on this topic?? Sweet rig. Also I am wondering if you could take pic without a bunch of stuff in the back round? How about on the course?
Nice cart.

Is there a story to go along with this rig?
