i am thinking about buying a golf cart since where i live everyone has one and they drive them around town like cars.
I figure it is a cheap was to get around. Then i thought Why not use one for hunting.
If you had a electric golf cart would you use it to get close to those deep in the woods spots. I have a few spots that are deep one 1 mile down a mowed acess path of grass. One 3/4 mile up a hile on a old farm road. Would there be any sound fromt he cart that might spook the deer.

Also how close would you park by your stand. i was thinking keeping it out of sight say 50 or 100 yards from where i would hunt. I think it would give me quick quite way in and i would not sweat

I have a gas powered golf cart that I painted camo and put tractor tread tires on and use it for hunting. They work pretty good, I always left mine somewhere around 150-175 yds from my stand.
As for scaring game the electric will be alot quieter then mine so it shouldnt bother aything.

cool i think tractor tires are a good idea. i would like to paint it camo. They guy i will buy it from had it painted 4 months ago blue with metal flack.So the camo might wait a few years
