Rolling instead of shouldering your gear is a game-changer. If you play hilly layouts, grind through two-round tourneys, or just want a built-in seat, a cart can save your back and keep your setup tight.

How to Choose the Right Disc Golf Cart
1) Decide on a bag-in-cart vs. cart-as-bag
- Bag-in-cart: Keep your backpack and mount it (ZÜCA Backpack Cart, DD EZ Cart, Rovic). Faster to switch between courses.
- Cart-as-bag: The cart is your bag (ZÜCA All-Terrain, GoCart). Usually more storage and an integrated seat.
2) Think about terrain & transport
- Hilly / rough: Bigger wheels and a seat help (ZÜCA AT, GoCart).
- Small car / apartment: Prioritize fold size (Rovic) or removable wheels (ZÜCA, DD).
3) Seat matters more than you think
If your leagues or events have backups, a real seat saves energy late in the round. I used to shrug this off—until a windy B-tier taught me otherwise.
4) Storage you’ll actually use
Look for places to stash layers, towels, chalk, minis, retrievers, and two bottles. If you carry backups, make sure your cart can handle 25–30+ discs without feeling top-heavy.
FAQs
Do carts fit on every course?
Most cart-friendly layouts are fine, but super-rooty woods, stairs, and bridges can be awkward. If you regularly play tight, rocky trails, consider a Backpack Cart or Rovic for flexibility.
Will my backpack fit a ZÜCA Backpack Cart?
Measure it. You’ll want up to 9″ deep × 12–14″ wide × 19″ tall. If yours is smaller, that’s okay—strap it tight so it won’t shift.
Is the ZÜCA seat actually strong?
Yes—the frame and seat are rated to 300 lb. I’ve sat through long backups without any flex or wobble.
What’s the easiest first cart?
If you love your current backpack, start with the DD EZ Cart or ZÜCA Backpack Cart. If you want a full cart-as-bag experience, go ZÜCA All-Terrain.
Recommended Accessories
- Seat / cushion: For ZÜCA, note that the Dynamic Discs Backpack Cart Seat Cushion is the compatible option for the Backpack Cart.
- Umbrella + holder: A lifesaver during mid-round showers.
- Towel & chalk bag: Keep the grip consistent in any weather.
- Retrievers: Mountable and easy to grab from the lower shelf/gear platform.
Final Take
If you want the most storage and a true tournament seat, the ZÜCA All-Terrain is the easy pick. If you need flexibility, the ZÜCA Backpack Cart gives you cart comfort without abandoning your favorite bag. For compact cars or minimal storage, the Rovic RV1D folds down small and just works. On a tighter budget, the Dynamic Discs EZ Cart is a sneaky-good entry point. And if you want a comfy hinged seat with a simple frame, the GGGT GoCart is worth a look.
Whatever you choose, a good cart makes long days feel short—and your back will thank you by hole 15.
