I
want one. It also is practical. No cart path only no parking fifteen yards from greens. Its a great idea.

Would be incredibly expensive, though. Pretty sweet, though.

Tiger could play into his 90's ( if he doesn't get shot by somebodys husband )

This is really going to piss Zwick off.

But seriously, this is a great idea assuming they can make it economically feasible.

From a business stand point I think it matters. Why waste putting a bunch of resources into designing it if it's not going to appeal to enough people at a price that enough profit can be made to make it a worthwhile business venture.

Not only that, I would guess the ideal thing would be to produce them at a reasonable enough price that courses would be willing to replace their fleet of carts with these. If they are too costly, that will never happen.

I don't think the idea is to make them mainstream. The idea is for bubba to have his own f'n hovercraft

A hover craft with a golf bag holder. Thanks Oakley. About as stupid as the people who spend $300 for your sunglasses.

I want one.
Will it catch on and be cost efficient? Don't know, don't care.
It's badass, and I want one.

You just proved his point bragging how stupid you are by having 2 pair(s).


Bubba Watson bought Tiger's old house in Isleworth where he crashed the car into a tree and will be moving in the next couple months.

Wouldn't you just bounce off it? The bumper is a bag of air

If new courses went directly with this, they wouldn't need cart paths. No upkeep for them.

I can't imagine drunk golfers with these.

LMAO, you might have a point. Of course, he could still go flying if he's not wearing a seatbelt

I would actually think these would be better with drunk golfers. There's literally no way for some drunk idiot to drive the cart into the lake.
