Innovative technology is touching all our lives in so many ways, and now the golf world is seeing lots of ‘holes in ones’ on the gadget front.
Enter eWheels V2, a really cool pushcart that turns into a premium electric caddy that follows you around everywhere, even over bumps and hills.
Alphard Golf are the makers of this new technology, and you can control this smart caddy through a remote or a magnetic smart tether. This is not their first time to the ‘tee’ either. Three years ago, they launched eWheels V1 and made a fortune on sales – across North America and around the world. Now they have amped up their technology, giving golfers access to V2, which will hit the market very soon.
Your Pushcart Reinvented
The smart caddy rolls over bumps, goes up and down hills and carries your golf bag through the entire course – without hassle or sweat.
Its features include: 100yrds remote range, auto-follow smart TFS technology, controlled downhill descent, interchangeable 27-hole battery, 6-axis integrated gyroscope, electric parking and breaking, and its 100 per cent weatherproof.
Walk the course, get some exercise
eWheels V2 allows you to walk the course, which is great for exercise. Even better, it means that you no longer have to worry about straining your arms and back carrying or pushing your club bag around. The technology helps reduce fatigue, gives you longer endurance on the course, and helps improve your swing and overall enjoyment of the game.
The 6-axis gyroscope is pretty impressive as it detects the terrain of the golf course and makes sure your cart goes straight, even as it crosses hills, bumps, and slopes.
“The gyroscope keeps your cart going at the right speeds in the right areas and prevents unwanted deviations or tumbles as you walk the course,” explains its team of developers. “Powerful motors keep eWheels going strong even as it approaches hills. Save your muscles from pushing or pulling your clubs uphill and let eWheels do all the heavy lifting for you. eWheels also does well going downhill. As the Hall sensors in the motors detect a downhill slope, eWheels V2 automatically sets a nice, even-paced controlled descent. Your gear will arrive safely at the bottom of the hill without risking damage or even a scratch. Need to stop on an incline? The electronic parking brake will keep your cart from rolling down the hill as you chip on.”
See you at the tee?
If you enjoy golf and want to find a better way to lug your clubs around the course, then this is technology you will want now and forever.
Just think, you will never have to rent a golf cart again with these trusty wheels.
This smart caddy, that is compact and easy to store in the backseat or trunk, has loads more features too: you can send your clubs ahead of you while you play the green to speed up play, and it is also equipped with a smooth cruise control so you don’t have to chase after it. And, eWheels V2 has intuitive steering controls that lets you easily adjust your cart’s direction, so it never veers off course.
The technology is a bit pricey, but then again lots of golf products are. This smart caddy retails for $745, or you can get two of them for $1,400, or four for $2,700.
