If you weigh 180 pounds, you'll burn 3.2 calories in one minute golfing with
a golf cart. That will allow you to enjoy one third of an unbuttered
seedless grape.
If you golf with a cart for an hour your total calories burned will be 192.
If the same 180 pound person pulls his clubs around the course for the same
time while on foot, he'll burn 420 calories.
A 180 pound cyclist going ten mph on level ground will burn 492 calories in
that same hour.
-------------------
Solution: Ban golf carts. Golfers will stop playing.
Create pedal powered golf carts - use wide wheels and very low gears so they
don't dig up the turf. It still won't be much fun. Might have to put jumps
on the course. Eventually it'll be found that mountain bikes with some sort
of bag carrying attachment are the ideal golf cart.
