Motocaddy Boosts Powered Caddy Options For US Golfers Looking To Enjoy The Walk
The extensive range now features five different electric caddies - which one is right for your game?
Motocaddy, the world’s biggest-selling electric caddy brand, can help you enjoy the walk out on the golf course even more with game-enhancement features at your fingertips that offer proven health and performance benefits while you play.
You're likely to average around 15,000 steps or 5-6 miles when you walk the course - depending on the yardage and typography - and that's why Motocaddy provides an electric caddy to cater to your needs and help you get the most enjoyment from your game.
The popular brand has boosted its powered range available to US golfers to five models with the launch of the easy-to-use, entry-level M1 DHC and the feature-packed M3 GPS DHC – both offering traditional handle control.
These advanced electric caddies complement the award-winning M7 GPS REMOTE and M7 REMOTE, along with the technologically advanced M5 GPS DHC that have proven so successful for the brand in recent times.
“We’re very excited to launch another two game-enhancing caddies to the world’s biggest golf market to offer American golfers even more options to suit their budget and the features they are looking for,” said Mark Kuryak, Motocaddy President/General Manager in the Americas.
“There is massive demand for electric caddies in the U.S. market right now, and we’ve added these two new models for golfers who are looking to upgrade from a push cart, but not ready to take the leap up to the M7 REMOTE or M7 GPS REMOTE just yet.
“Motocaddy now has a range of powered caddies to suit any golfer, and I’m really looking forward to seeing more out on the fairways making walking golf an even more enjoyable experience,” added Mark.
Take a look at Motocaddy's electric caddies, all of which are different in their own ways and can enhance your game and experience on the golf course.
