MINI Golf

Just curious. How many of us Mini-ites swing the sticks? I've been playing for over 20 years and am about to get my first Mini. I wonder how the two pasttimes will co-exist. I know my wide won't like me spending time golfing AND tinkering in the garage.

Um . . . I just said "wide" when I meant to say "wife". Not good. I'm a dead man.

Re: golf- just bought a new Bag Boy 3 wheeled cart. Don't know yet if I can get two 3 wheel carts and two bags in the back, but I'll find out pretty soon!

First question I asked my MA when I hit the lot was can "it hold a set of golf clubs?"

I have one of those bennington quiet organizer bags that is really big and quite long. I can fit it in the back at a angle by moving the passenger seat forward, but add another bag in there and it's hopeless

Ha, I saw one of those new square Nike Sumu drivers, and I'm prtty sure it is bigger than a mini. So I guess the real question is: can a Sumo driver hold two minis?

Big drivers, big bags, and a "wide". I think it's hopeless!

Good size joke! Here's an idea: why not ask the course marshall if we can skip the cart rental and just use our MINI's??

If it's a tin top, shouldn't be a problem. My ragtop on the other hand.... I can place the bag in the passengers seat, or I suppose I could lay the clubs in the back seat with the head covers flapping in the wind (my clubs and bag are about a foot longer than the rear seat is wide).

Homerwest, I saw this:

I'm wondering if it will be worth the money.

I routinely get two bags and two Sun Mountain Speed carts in mine. Grip it and rip it!

I have had two bags in the back with the rear seat down. I usually get funny looks at the bag drop. Most people wonder why I just don't use the MINIon the course.
