Golf Cart Names: Naming Your Cart — (Golfing Related)

As the head golf coach at Tell Me More Golf, I’m here to help you with all things golf and aid you on your golfing journey. Today, we’re talking about golf carts. 

Now, this isn’t like many of our articles. We’re not looking at a specific part of the game. This article probably won’t help you in terms of game improvement, but golf isn’t just about improving, it’s about fun too. In fact, that’s why most of us play the game in the first place, because it’s fun. So let’s have some fun. 

Naming Your Cart 

Lots of people choose to walk the course in golf, which is great. Walking is great for getting those steps in and for overall health. However, if you play lots of golf, you don’t want to walk or the time, especially if you’re getting nearing the twilight of your life, as many golfers are. 

Sometimes, you just want to take the golf cart and save your energy for hitting shots, as opposed to wasting it on walking and carrying your clubs. 

Now, lots of players rent golf carts, which is a great way to keep the cost down, but if you do that regularly, after a while, it makes more financial sense to get your own golf cart, which is why a whole host of regular golfers throughout America purchase their own carts. 

And hey, if you’re going to name the cart, why not have some fun with it, right? 

Funny Golf Cart Names

Of course, we’re going to cover a range of golf cart names below, but why not start off with the funny ones? Here’s a small list of the funniest golf cart names out there: 

The Bogey Man 

Many golfers like to make fun of their ability to make plenty of bogeys. If you’re a serial bogey hitter, then naming your cart ‘The Bogey Man’ is a great way to pay homage to that fact. 

Crusty Caddy 

Now this is a great one if your cart is on the old side. It’s old, it’s crusty but it gets the job done, like many older golfers! 

Bogey Buggy 

Again, we’re talking to those golfers who love to crack a joke about their endless bogey’s. Why not do so by naming your cart the ‘Bogey Buggy’. 

Fore-Wheel Drive

You’ve heard of four-wheel drive, right? Well, what about ‘Fore-Wheel Drive’ paying homage to those golfers who need to yell “Fore!” to let others know that the ball is heading their way. 

Tree Trailer

This one doesn’t need much of an explanation. If you hit your ball in the trees a lot, then this one’s for you. 

The Slice is Right 

This one really got me! You’ve probably seen or heard of the famous TV show ‘The Price is Right’, well here’s ‘The Slice is Right’, the perfect caddy for anyone, such as a high handicapper or beginner, who can’t help but slice those golf balls.  

Tee-Rex

Get it? It’s not T-Rex, it’s Tee-Rex, as in golf tee. If you’re going to crash round that golf course like a prehistoric creature, then why not use this clever play on words to name your cart ‘Tee-Rex’.

Angry Birdie 

I also laughed at this one quite a bit. It combines the name for popular game Angry Birds, with the golfing term birdie and the fact that golf can cause lots of players to get angry!

Rough Rider 

Another favorite of mine, Rough Rider is a great name, as you’re combining the fact that you’ll be riding in the buggy with the fact that you’ll probably take it into the rough on occasion.
