Review on 🏌️ Enhance Your Golf Cart with the Classic Accessories Fairway Travel Enclosure - Navy, Short Roof by Travis Flores

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Visibility is a very big issue!

This is a relatively cheap cover so don't expect any surprises. If the sole purpose of this trolley cover is to keep out the cold and wind, it certainly fills that need. But basically that's all. Here are the problems I faced-1. The plastic screen offers very poor visibility, bordering on dangerous. In its packaging it is folded very compactly, therefore the plastic shade is very crumpled when taken out and almost does not crease even with weekly folding. The plastic also makes it difficult to see both the side and the front, even when the car's plexiglass windshield is removed. It is difficult to see where the ball is on the fairway, especially in the winter when the grass is gray and the ball seems to blend into it. Worse, your depth perception is affected by plastic. So you REALLY have to watch out for indentations and holes in front of the cart as you move, and you can drive past the ball and have to get out of the cart to find it. 2. The cover fits the Yamaha golf cart very well, but only very small golf bags fit on the back, and putting on normal sized bags makes access difficult. As a result, the rear part hangs aimlessly in the storage compartment and restricts access there.3. The entrance to the trolley through the zip is at the front of the trolley, which means that you, the driver, have a steering wheel to avoid. Even if the car has a GPS module, this comes into play. I can't tell you how many times in two months I, my wife or friends seeking shelter from the elements, almost unconsciously stumbled upon the GPS module, and when it's cold you usually move faster. In fact, in two cases blood was shed after these incidents and unpleasant bruises remained. If you don't zip it before you ride, a front zip will require you to reach for the locking flap, which now lets in cold air and is now bursting open on the outside of the case. It will be difficult to reach as there is no handle or knob inside so you will be really distracted while driving. and visibility is bad! 5. Finally, the screen is made of fairly durable plastic and is difficult to fold neatly. Think about why you're using it, it's pretty cold when it's time to fold it so don't feel like hanging around to do it. We don't like playing in the rain, but the cold just keeps us from it. us when it's 30 and only when the wind is stronger than about 8 mph. We also have a small heater and being able to keep your hands and body warm adds greatly to the game and enjoyment. We never used a trolley until November 2018 and believe me it really is a game changer. This suitcase was a great learning curve on what should and shouldn't be included in a trolley case. Now we're getting a more expensive one with better features and style, so that investment wasn't totally wasted. If you love golf and hate the cold then $150 is nothing when you can be one of the few on the course on a cold day and possibly the warmest day.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
