Clicgear Model 8 Golf Push Cart Review

hey guys it's Eric from house'll rocket golf and today I'm going to talk to you about the new crush card I picked out and why I went with this model [Music] after three seasons and two repairs my pushcart finally broke down for the last time while it was used when I purchased it it had actually held up pretty well the few times I used it of course now that it's gone I'm gonna have to go golf shopping and shopping I went so looked around online I also went to a couple of local sporting goods stores to see what models and features and options were out there as far as push carts go I'd have a stand bag and I prefer my stand bag I can carry lots of equipment you know extra golf balls waters if I need them because the bag has a cooler in it so having had a two wheeled version push cart it was a bit of an issue on side Hill lives I would lose the cart periodically you know I'd want to tip over and roll over on me and the bag would get a little squirrely and spin in it so ultimately I found the click gear model eight push cart this model eight is meant for stand backs it has the proper gripping in the harness for it and with the four wheels it's very sturdy it doesn't roll over for me at all what benefit of the four wheels and I don't know about the three wheels but what's the four wheel when you're hitting that uphill lie you don't have to worry about nosing into the hill the wheels catching you just keep on going up the hill as you push it which is fantastic with my old two-wheel version that front nose piece where the bottom of the bag caught it would also catch into the ground and dig a nice trough into the fairway so all I do like this golf cart there are a few drawbacks to it that that irritated me loved it to be honest it has a little cubby but as you can see with your golf clubs in the way you can't really get in there so easily I mean I could sneak my hand in there it's a plastic edges and you always run that risk am I gonna cut myself on something it's just kind of the way it goes now it does have an adjustable handle which is great if you're a little bit shorter you know rotate the handle down over at 8 in the place oh look it works great if you're a little bit shorter but if you're somebody who's tall like me and wants it up high where well my hands are I'm kind of stuck this thing is basically useless to me even if you're using the scorecard which it has a little flap here on top it just it doesn't work very well the model II also has a nice little hatch underneath of here but you can only get to it from the front and as you can see I get my clubs out of the way to get to the netting that's there again unless I'm shorter and I lower that handle down there is an umbrella holder that sits here and will hold an umbrella lovely I fit under it just fine when it's in the separate positions that's also have Bennis because I'm 6 foot 6 if I were to hit my head on the umbrella every time I crawled under it that'd be a little frustrating but fortunately it's plenty tall it also has the brake handle here on the back rather than being underneath where you got a kick and fidget with it being right up here in front of you on off it's not a big deal and again the nice high handles they're really useful as well now the reason why I ended up choosing the click gear model 8 was for any number of reasons truthfully the adjustable handle was nice making sure that they got up to my height 4 wheels versus 2 massive with the two-wheel version you had to push down and push forward which you're very round of golf would kind of wear yeah they kind of wear on the shoulders and your wrists short of a straight street curb where it's just a gentle lift at that point up and over no problems the nice big wheels are just fantastic and this thing rolls like a champ it has no issues whatsoever moving around on the golf course the other thing that was nice about this particular push cart and the click gear line in general are these attach points that they have where they have where you can attach your water bottle holder or a brush free of shoes and clubs it's actually pretty well the way that they set it up and accessorize this my pleasure darts now will forewarn you on uneven lies this cart will slide even with the brakes on the brakes are on the front wheels so there's no weight on the front wheels all the weights on the back what will happen is if you push it where the front wheels are on an uphill lie it will slide back down the hill if you make it set the front wheels are on the downhill lie you're in good shape I kind of woke up they might have put the brakes on the rear wheels where all the weight is that the cart will hold itself no matter which direction the cart is facing because most of us are gonna push this cart forward so if we push it and work and we stop on an uphill lie that's how we're gonna leave it when I throw the brakes on next thing we know the carts rolling away

from us and that actually happened to me this weekend alright guys so those are my thoughts about this push cart to click gear model II I do like it I wish there were a few design differences to it that would have made it a more premium cart for those of us with stand bags to be honest so my name is Erin thanks for watching this video please subscribe to a channel please like the video and we'll see you next time [Music] you

all right what's going on guys so in this video here I'm gonna do a review on the click gear 8.0 push car so we talked about whether or not you should buy this so basically I'm recovering here are the different features of this card itself or how about the design price some pros and cons and also where the best place is to buy so the cheapest puts it I can actually find this club is down below in the description so I left the link there if you want to go check it out but basically let's start with the looks of this cart here so it is one of the better-looking carts out there I'll definitely admit that you know there are some kind of cheap you know junky looking carts out there a lot of them a lot of them are but this one definitely it looked really good probably one of the best looking cards out there are the clicker model so it's also extremely sturdy and easy to push around so it does come with four wheels and that just makes it you know that it adds that extra you know sturdiness that you need and it definitely is easy to push around it's smooth all that kind of soft case so it has seven different color combos available so you know whatever color you like you're definitely able to find one to match what pretty much whatever you want obviously color is not a huge deal or anything but some people like to having a specific color and this one definitely provides a lot of options overall it's a great score when it comes to the looks design all that kind of stuff so I definitely liked this part here and I would definitely recommend it as far as looks go alright so how about the weight and size of the card itself so it couldn't waste about 22 pounds so it is a little bit heavy but that's because of the sturdiness and durability it's not cheaply made or anything like that so I'm personally more of a fan of you know something like this versus something that's light and you know kind of Wiggles around and isn't very sturdy so even though it is a little bit heavy um the sturdiness and the durability it's gonna last it's gonna last a long long time and that definitely makes up for the fact that it's a little bit heavy and it also collapses to 27 by 17 by 15 in size so it is a little bit big for some people obviously there are other models that actually fold down a little bit smaller but it might be a little tough fitting a bag and this cart in a small trunk of your car if your car trunk is fairly small so we might have to go in the backseat if there's room but um if you have a bigger trunk definitely it will fit but having two bags in the trunk and also this it's probably not gonna fit so um that was kind of the one downside of this thing here but is it actually easy to set up so it's a lot easier than the previous clicker 3.5 so if you have to use in that previous cart you know that that's probably a little bit difficult to set up but this one was a lot easier than that's all they made some improvements you simply unlock the lever okay you step on the part it's gonna say step on it so you simply just step on that and then you pull up on the main handle the carts gonna click into place and then you can adjust the handle so basically to whatever height you want so you know if you're if you're a shorter person you can you lower the handle if you're taller you can raise it up customize it to whatever feels best for you and then if you want to close that you simply lift on the center handle you unlatch the handlebar and then basically step on the wheel and press down right so it is pretty simple um there's instructions with it but even without instructions you should be able to figure out it's fairly fairly simple okay so let's talk about performance so the four wheels on and making it extremely sturdy on the core so pushing around pushing it downhill uphill on uneven lies over curbs all that kind of stuff the four wheels make it really really sturdy and I'm just never gonna fall over anything like that the cart breaks um through exactly what they're designed to do there they were they were if is good if you're on a hill you just simply apply the brake and it's not gonna go anywhere definitely a good brake on it you can adjust the handle to fit your comfort and height so you can you know just sit up down to whatever feels most comfortable to you and the tires are made from foam so you don't need to worry about flat tires or pumping anything up you don't there cuz they're gonna last they're not a cheap foam or anything like that they're you know a good material that um you know can hold up with whatever conditions you actually do put the thing through so let's talk about the storage on it so it comes with a storage unit with a magnetic lid they can basically hold all your balls your rangefinder wallet keys all that kind of stuff snacks all I guess not right it's not it's not super tiny so there is a lot of room for pretty much whatever you need you don't need to put anything in your bag you put all pretty much everything you need in that one compartment itself and it will hold all stuff queso it has an

elastic band that can makes me hold your scorecard or your phone so you don't want to put your phone in with your balls all kind of stuff there's there's a band there you can basically you know put your phone in and it's easy to access and it's right there and it will hold it in place and it has an umbrella mount and then two different cup holders for different sizes so I mean whatever size cup you're bringing around it's gonna fit there and then if you have an umbrella it also has a mount for that so easy to use easy to assemble and let's talk about some pros so it is a great look and it is extremely sturdy obviously there's other models out there that are going to be cheaper but they're not going to be very sturdy they're not gonna last as long and they're just gonna fall apart this one's definitely sturdy and durable and it looks great okay so it is easy to set up and take down I know the previous click gear and some other ones out there they are kind of difficult instructions are kind of vague you know there's nothing really on the card itself that tells you what to do they're a little bit hard but this one was extremely easy to set up and take down and that was great so it does come with a lot of storage so pretty much anything you're carrying on the course snacks phones range finders GPS is all kind of stuff the this is gonna have storage for all of that so you don't need to put anything in your bag or anything like that okay so let's talk some cons it is a little bit pricey it's more on the high end click gear is more so a high-end brand when it comes to cards but obviously you're paying for what you get it's like a extremely sturdy durable car that has lots of storage and pretty much does everything you need to do I'm just not gonna fall apart it's not going to fall over anything like that so obviously you pay a little bit more but you get away better quality and it is a bit heavy obviously you know we talked about 22 pounds so obviously heaviness shouldn't really make a difference when you're rolling it around you don't really know it's the heaviness of it but you know if you're bringing it from your your car to your garage or whatever it to 22 pounds I mean it's not exactly light but I mean it's not it's not the end of the world or anything like that and it doesn't fold down the smallest so it might be a little bit harder to store if you're if you have a small trunk and you're trying to fit two bags and the cart in there it's probably not gonna fit you probably put it in the backseat but if you do have a decent sized trunk we be able to fit your bag and this cart in there but not really a huge deal so is it actually worth it taking into account all the pros all the cons is it actually worth it and if you're someone who's looking for a great cart with lots of storage and aren't really worried about lugging the thing around this can be a great option for you I definitely like this it was definitely performed well almost easy to push down it was smooth at all the stores you need so I do highly recommend it and I'm personally a fan of this model it is a lot more expensive than other models out there so it's really up to you if you're fine paying that kind of money I would definitely recommend it if you are on a bit of a budget I'd probably look for a little bit of a cheaper model but other than that the cheapest place I could find this product is in the description down below so I left a link there and let it's the cheapest place that I could go own and find this out for multiple websites and that was the best option at the time this video so what I'll do is I'll throw together a bonus if you decide to buy through the link down below I'll give you a free copy of the consistency report ebook okay it's gonna show you seven shortcuts you can use to drastically improve your scores it's gonna show you seven quick adjustments you can use to basically improve your ball striking so there's seven quick things you can instantly apply to your game and you'll be able to improve your ball striking so simply purchase through the link down below send me an email sort of screenshot your receipt and send me an email I'll leave that down below and I'll give you a free copy case well that's going to be it for this video hope you enjoyed let me know if you have any questions about the cart itself and we will see you in the next video [Music]

welcome to my backyard for part three of the video looking at the Alfred golf he wheels one at this video come out a little bit sooner but we've had a lot of rain lately and I wanted to wait till the ground conditions were good and didn't want to be standing out here in the rain recording a video for you guys I want to thank all of you sent me questions in through both youtube and through the Packers paradise forums if you guys continue to send questions I'll happily answer them in this series where I go through the use of this product today I'm going to answer a couple those questions and then I'm going to show assembling it as if we just took this out of the trunk of our car how it works and then a test drive in my backyard I'm fortunate that I have a nice downhill grade in my backyard so you'll get to see me drive it across the hill uphill downhill test some of the features I know there's a cruise shops you can also send it ahead fifteen thirty or sixty yards ahead of you so I'm gonna be playing around with some of that and I'll let you know my impressions but to start off a couple questions someone asked if with the brackets does it make my Kart actually more compact and the answer is yes so I brought the original wheel this wheel bracket was on instead right here it would be a little bit taller because that back wheel can lay a little bit down flatter but I don't know if that actually is a big deal to me that it's a lil bit smaller the part that I actually appreciate is when I have a couple friends golf bags in the back of my trunk I usually can't fit the cart so I throw them in the back seat and the problem with these things are they roll back and forth if you have them on the wheels if you flip it upside down it's round so it rocks back and forth there's banging into your seats when you hit the brakes just a little bit annoying well with this bracket in the back it actually sits quite well in my seat if I put it I don't have it hitting in the back where you don't hear it rolling around beating up my doors not an intended feature I'm sure but it's nice another question I got is why four wheel golf cart why didn't I go with the three wheel just out of curiosity you know that's not really related to the product but for me I like when I'm walking down a fairway if I want to drink ice water and I pull it out of all the sacks I just pushed the cart ahead give it a little push by she was a little downhill and I drink I'm also that guy who seen my bag when I used to have a three wheel cart tumble because starts taking a turn or lose the stability I got the four-wheel carts solely because of that stability now with this unit the three wheels swivel front wheel carts I hear turns a lot better a lot easier more maneuverable and because I'm not having to push it and trust it and I can just keep that remote in my pocket and kind of sin it 15 30 60 yards or have it walk with me I probably don't need the stability of four wheels anymore but that's one of the reasons I'm getting one of those three wheel swivel carts in and I'm gonna show you how that works out and compare that product as well that's gonna be an upcoming video the final question I got was how hard is it to open up this cart with the back wheels removed is there do I notice anything different so next part of the video let's get in so what I normally open this up normally and I lift up and I could immediately tell without the rolling wheel it's kind of grabbing a little bit so my instinct would be to kind of grab it there until it locks out a little bit different than normal normal just step and pull up in a lock and you probably could you're just going to drag those across the ground this feels like an ABS plastic type material so you probably not gonna wear it out too quickly you'll just start scratching it up I would baby it personally because I baby all my stuff with kids I have head covers on my irons today not because I need head covers of my irons but because I might actually dump this bag while testing it today so I wanted to protect the stuff as best I could so alright like I said before when using the e wheels product I'm going to try to make sure that it is completely level on either side correctly gap and I don't know if will affect steering if it's not perfectly out but the OCD person side of me says make sure that the space on either side of the wheels is equal and hopefully it'll drive a little truer all right that looks about right now with this remote control oh I'm reading a book that you hit a button and if it actually starts driving it's supposed to come synched up from factory after you turn the power button on power button this big silver button in the center if it's not synched up you pull the battery hold a button the instructions are on the website and I believe Alfred golf even has a video showing you how to do that I'll be going to that procedure myself if this doesn't talk off the bat so let's check powered up just got

a ring of light sources battery with five white LEDs with the red one in the middle oh she works all right I'm gonna change the camera round so you can see the grade in my backyard drive it around a little bit and then I'll come back and give you my first impressions of it so one second so I have the cruise control feature turned off which is a feature that will have it keep up with me and I'm going to start driving it seeing how it turns I'm gonna send it ahead I'm gonna start off by just sending at 30 yards ahead and see how far it goes if it's roughly 30 yards and I'm not gonna keep all this footage you guys will probably get bored but I'll give you a good example of me going up and down and then I'll come back and give you my thoughts so notice that it's actually turning with the hill all right I'm gonna see if I can Wow turns eet in either direction and I never come back to me and I'll throw my card on it now my actual bag does she with extra weight how it drives compared to empty and I know someone might give me a hard time that I'm taking a stand bag and putting it on this cart instead of using a cart bag but I've never had a problem using a stand bag on this and I like it that way in case I just need a stand back I already have it alright my bag is decently heavy I keep golf balls on in a couple accessories and this is a full set of clubs with a little orange whip so she's waiting let's see how you drive and how she turn alright so I immediately noticed that turning up the hill with all that weight and even turning this way from a standstill it's struggling a little bit forward and backwards are fine so my initial thoughts after driving around the yard just for about 25 minutes battery hasn't come down yet and I know it's those last 14 I will do a full long course test and also give a first impression but at first it took a while to understand the steering it kind of operates like a skid steer for anyone who understands how that works and that if you want to turn left it drives the right wheel and keeps left wheel stop so it kind of pushes through on that side trying to turn up the heat hill works a lot better if it's already moving when you go if you're trying to have a go from a stop it struggles because it's trying to drag those two front wheels just slide them across the ground and going uphill with a heavy bag up setting up for failure but I wouldn't know how she would do once I got the hang of it had no problem driving it up down back get it turned around adds an interesting element I can't wait to see on the course if it helps me play faster or slower so I'm playing around with it too much but I do like the idea that I can tell it you know I can send the 60 yards of the fairway or I can put the wrote in my pocket once we key off and just start walking known as with me if I have to stop it real quick I just hit that stop button and it stops I also while walking it around wanted to see how would feel to push it so I push this down and back and uphill and downhill just to get a feel of how heavy is it with this and you can push it by either turning the power off and you know you're not fighting the electronics or if you hold the stop button down for I think it's five seconds the red LED and the middle goes off which tells you it's no longer powered it's released and you can push it it's a little bit heavier then if you had your standard wheels but if you run out of battery mid-round because you forgot to charge it up or anything you can use it a product idea that I want to give back to out for golf and this might sound silly is that this is clearly clamping onto kind of a square - I wonder how many golfers are like myself who love the idea of having the he wheels unit on my cart but can see I'm only gonna go play nine holes or I'm going to go play a short par three course just working on my short and I decide I want the extra exercise today I want to push it and I don't want to push the extra way to this though I wonder if they can't come up a cheap design with just some cheap lightweight wheels that are kind of similar to the factory wheel size with the decent bearings and just some aluminum tubing that would collapse down or that the tubing itself could be separate and you have two wheels they just got snapped together you clamp two essentially I'd be willing to pay off or golf to be able to have the ability to use it the original fashion without having to pull two bolts out and slip brackets back on it'd be nice to have an option even if it's just a square loom tube with two cheap wheels that snap on that are free spinning like the factory that I can easily pop it on and use it as a cart so an idea another thing that hit me while thinking about playing the full 18 holes is I'm one who's always on my feet active and that's one of the reasons I like

trying to walk and play a course and not be sitting down there card all the time not no judgement there I understand some who drinking a beer playing golf with your friends I totally understand that element and I believe in that as well but if I'm playing on a Saturday at a municipal course that gets backed up standing around might be might start getting a little painful most of these have to be a little umbrella attachment where you can put an improbably to get out from underneath this on and I know most of these have a seat attachment that hooks onto the back clamp before you can have a seat where you can actually sit down I've never even thought about putting a seat on my cart but now knowing that I'm going to be pushing for 18 holes and I could be one of those Saturday rounds where it's going to take you every bit of four four and a half five hours to play because it's just a backed up municipal force it might be nice to have an option on here a seat so I'm not sure if Alfred golf is working on a bracket that incorporates one of the existing seats by women manufacturers or their own but a couple ideas I had just thinking about the product just initial thoughts going back and forth I would tell anyone before you take this on a course I would get it in your backyard get it somewhere you can drive it the manual does say don't use that cruise control mode on hard surfaces like concrete pavement I think you can mess up with something so listen to them don't mess up your unit I would just get a feel for driving it so that you're not learning it the first time in the course because just driving around for 30 minutes after the first 10 15 minutes I really got the hang of how to maneuver it how to send it ahead how far 15 yards is how far 30 yards is how far 60 yards is so you get an idea when you get on the course I'm also testing worst-case this is essentially playing in the rough my grass needs to be cut in raining and the ground a little bit soft so it's kind of slipping not grabbing as well as it could but the unit held up great I'm going to get it charged up and hopefully this upcoming weekend be able to take it out on a course maybe get you a little two footage of it driving on the greens using something well driving on the green driving on the fairways that are shortcut seeing how it maneuvers on the fairway and also using the cruise control playing up a hole maybe even take you guys along see my wonderful golf game in action but so far impressed so far it does what they advertised is pretty easy maneuver I do think having that swivel wheel in the front will make this even that much maneuverable from a standstill it's not having to friction slide the wheels that will be able to just snap it around I'll probably be able to turn in circles would be my first thought seeing how it's trying to slide those wheels versus having a wheel that swivel probably going to get a much better experience if you're trying to maneuver it in tight spaces but let's be honest driving round a golf cart usually you don't worst case scenario you're grabbing and helping it and lifting it but going in my backyard even going around my bird feeder going up and down the hill getting the hang of it I didn't have to grab a hold of it the only time I grabbed a hold of it was when I wanted to understand how hard it was to push it with the weight but not fighting the motor so impressed so far so good next time I'm gonna have it on the course please any questions you guys have put them in my youtube comments or if you want put them on I have a thread open on the hackers paradise either one of those you asked me questions you want to understand anything about this you want me to try something out with this let me know I'm happy to test it and give you more details if it helps anyone else who's considering making a similar purchase here to help thank you guys till next time
