I try to walk as much as possible. Its great exercise and I find that I play better when I have more time to survey the course and think about my next shot. Yes, and that is a disturbing trend.

Carts are mandatory! Golf, the problem is that many courses, especially on the weekend, do not allow you to walk. Carts are mandatory!

The good news is this: The golf courses will save money (they also get a 30% tax credit from the federal government when buying solar) the golf courses will have to replace their batteries less and guess what, we dont run out of juice when we just paid 80.00 to play a round on our day off. So, I guess everyone wins...the ROI for a golf course is about 2 years but if there are any state or local tax breaks it could be sooner...and, when you buy batteries at the same time as the solar top, you can get the 30% tax credit as well. @ Phana24JG – You are 100% right…just to do it for the thought of being green does not make any sense.

If they make economic sense, then fine, this would be a good approach, but to just do it in response to environmental hysteria is hardly necessary.
