Buggy Types
ALTHOUGH THE PATTERSON TRIO IS THE MAIN BUGGY USED BY OUR GOLFERS THERE ARE TWO MAJOR VARIANTS ON THE THREE WHEEL THEME

Here the buggy is shown with the seat in the highest position and the seat fully tilted. Any position between these two extremes is possible using the two independent actuators on the seat support frame.

This buggy needs a purpose built trailer and one is shown on the News Page with an indication of sponsors and manufacturuers
