Does anyone take their own cart cover to the course and put it on the cart when they play in the winter?

How much trouble is it?  Any particular brand/model I should look at?


I wish I could get my own golf cart, but that isn't feasible any time soon.  Especially with a motorcycle sitting in the garage that I'm paying for but never ride!  

I live less than a quarter of a mile from our club house... I run out for 9 holes here and there during the week, and manage to squeeze in 18 pretty much every weekend.  I'm going to get one of the Coleman heaters this year.. hopefully that will help a little.

easy... literally a couple minutes.  After thr round I fold it up and put into a tote in my trunk.
If it's wet, I will hang it up in the garage when I get home...

I use a heater inside, so it helps smooth out all the wrinkles.. (not the best vision), but I'm warm and toasty.  Needless to say, everyone want to pair-up with me  :)

I got one last season. If you play in cold weather, it's a must have. It takes just a few minutes to put on and take off.

Cart covers are great.....

For me, a heater isn't even necessary.  Once I get out of the wind....that's usually enough.
