Attention All Disney Golfers: Robo Carts Are Here

Disney Parks have always been at the forefront of new technology, engineering, and safety. Now, a whole new experience is coming to Disney Golf.

Disney’s new Robo Carts (Temp Walk Robo-Caddie), will make it easier for guests to carry their clubs around Disney World’s golf courses…but it may not help with that slice. Here is what Disney Parks Blog had to say about the new innovation:

“Introducing the Robo-Cart! If you’ve ever walked around an 18-hole golf course carrying your clubs or using a push cart, you know that can be exhausting. Disney Golf aims to ease that hardship with the Robo-Cart, a small robotic golf cart that uses GPS and Bluetooth technology to transport your clubs safely around the course.”

“When playing Disney’s Oak Trail Golf Course, utilize one of our fleet of pull-carts available for rent at a cost of $7 +tax per player per 9-hole round, or upgrade to the Club Car Tempo® Walk Robo-Caddie experience for only a few dollars more! For $10 +tax per player per 9-hole round you can enjoy a hands-free autonomous caddie. It offers an on-board GPS yardage system, carries your bag, contains a cooler, a sand bottle, and other accessories. Tempo® Walk combines the use of technology to bring back the simplicity of the game in a new and exciting way.”-GolfWDW.com

“Walt Disney World Resort is one of only a few places in the surrounding area where you’ll find these robotic carts in use. They are ideal for Disney’s Oak Trail golf course, a 9-hole walking course that appeals primarily to families and younger golfers, however they are also available if you want to walk the 18-hole Magnolia and Palm championship courses.

The best part is the Robo-Carts rent for only $10 in addition to your green fees. They are available only at the Palm, Magnolia, and Oak Trail courses. Check out the Disney Golf website to learn more. And here’s another tip for you: If you’re interested in playing on Saturday or Sunday mornings, you can book your tee time at least six days in advance to get a 10 percent discount on your green fees ($49 plus tax). It’s part of a new “Early Bird’’ program for weekend tee times before 11:30 am. These two new features should help elevate your golf experience and maybe even help you get a hole-in-one. If you do, you’ll be added to our new Hole-In-One Club where you’ll be featured on our Hole-In-One Club website and presented with a personalized Hole-In-One Club certificate. Just book your tee time at www.golfwdw.com and ask about our Hole-In-One Club and our Early Bird program, or rent a Robo-Cart when you check in at the clubhouse.See you on the tee box!”
