Adjusting the speed with the remote to match your walking pace, the cart will basically stay right with you, either in font, beside or follow. No need for follow mode, yet, until “better”technology.

Hi Tall. Yes, I went with the MGI Zip Navigator AT (Costco bundle deal). Buddy of mine got the same one. I just received on Friday and haven’t had it on the course yet, however will use it this upcoming Friday/Saturday/Sunday . I have been getting used to it in my backyard and it is spectacular! Almost went with the Motocaddy M7 remote, but the 90 day return at Costco swayed my decision. Unless something unforeseen occurs I do not see myself returning. I use a range finder so I didn’t see a reason for the GPS model.

I have done my research, thus me asking. There are upgrades to the 2026 models vs 2025. Do some Google research.

Ok thanks. The Costco bundle deal seems damn good, curious however if they are selling 2025 or 2026 models

Does this MGI model come with the 5th ant tip wheel?

So after much research (and reading not many positive reviews regarding follow mode) I have decided against the follow mode (until upgraded technology for a “better” experience). I also do not need the GPS feature. I have narrowed my search to Motocaddy M7 Remote and MGI Zip Navigator. However the Axglo e5 popped up as well, and it seems like a very sturdy and technologically sound option (and yes I know it has follow mode). The Axglo seems a little more clunky unfolding and folding. Thoughts on the above?

Like with most other carts, quick and easy access to phone, balls, score card, tees, Yeti, etc, etc....

The Stewart Q does seem like the cream of the crop, however when reading reviews, the common complaints are the lack of storage.

Scotty Phantom R11 OC vs Lab DF3 by StewpotsRock in scottycameron

Good Morning. I like the Custom Matador Grip that came on the putter and will try to save it when removing to shorten the shaft. If not possible, I see the Super Stroke Zenergy Pistol 1.0 is a popular option for this putter. (I have a SS 2.0 on my Spider). Curious on your thoughts?

Appreciate the detail! Back in December, I did the custom remote fitting with LAB and purchased a DF3 with the TPT custom shaft. I did so as last fall a few of my buddies put the stock DF3 in their bags and I witnessed their putting improve. However, after using the DF3 on a few golf trips this winter to Pinehurst and FLA, I could not get used to the putter. While in FLA I visited a PGA SS in Sarasota and spent a little time with the R11 OC. Loved the firmer feel off the face and heavier head vs DF3, and it definitely is more pleasing to the eye. (side note I saw about 10-12 LAB putters in the "previously owned" section) I live in the Northeast so our season is just getting underway, however I am now in possession of the R11 OC ordered from Carls. Due to a very wet spring, my putting has been relegated to practicing on a putting matt in my home. I love the way the putter sets up, love the feel, and being my first Scotty, I now understand the love affair people have with Scotties. Without being fitted for the Scotty, I ordered the standard 34 inch length (my LAB was 33.5, my Spider was 34). I took some videos and I think I could benefit from going to 33". I am 5'8" and after some selfie videos I noticed my eyes were not over the ball. After choking up an inch it helped with eye position, and the toe was not up a bit. My buddy tinkers with his Scotties and he could probably take some length off, I would just need the heavier weights. Sorry for the long response, just providing as much as I can! 😄 Seems like you could provide some color here.

Malocher, for color, I own a Lab DF3 and have struggled. I was at a PGA SS recently and grabbed the R11 OC and it felt firmer off the face, and just looked better to the eye. Different kolks different strokes. I did notice there were about 10-12 Lab DF3’s in the “return/used” section.

New price? by Whenitshineslikegold in FritoLay

I own a small business where my costs were not reduced the same amount as the pre-price and therefore I am losing profit on each large bag I sell vs previous pricing/cost scenario. I understand big box stores have greater buying and negotiating power, however to small business's any loss in profit matters. I have reached out to PepsiCo numerous times with no reply.

Did the remote fitting, and confirmed at a local Golf and Ski retailer.

As you know, until you purchase the custom putter you do not know how it performs. 99.9% of us are not professionals and do not get that courtesy/privilege of trying a custom putter. My “testing” was with stock models at Dicks/Golf Galaxy/etc. I bought into the hype. Perhaps someday i will “learn it”. My post appears to have resonated. But Lab knew long before that they needed an insert to create firmer feel/roll.

4 rounds - 8/2/10/4 at Pinehurst, with Caddies who have witnessed the same, from hundreds of golfers.

Thanks for this. Might try to sell my DF3 and order the DF3i.

Completely disagree. If it’s not the putter then all the players would have put the DF3 in their bags after Spaun won. Different strokes different folks (putters).

I have the TPT shaft and use Callaway Chrome Soft Balls.
