About Bag Boy
The first Bag Boy cart was designed and made by Bruce Williamson in Portland, Oregon in 1945. The original golf cart was made out of two lawn mower wheels with flat tires mounted on an up-and-down folding, spring-suspension chassis, which could be attached to a standard golf bag. Following this original concept, Bruce Williamson and his partner, E. Roy Jarman formed the Jarman-Williamson Company in 1946 and manufactured these basic carts from sand castings and aluminum tubing. To make the cart last longer and keep it free from expensive repairs, all the parts were designed to be bolted together making it possible to easily replace damaged parts. Die-castings were introduced into the manufacturing process in 1947 and round-shaped zero pressure tires on dish wheels were added to the up-and-down folding chassis mechanism. In 1957, Bruce Williamson sold his interest to Roy Jarman, but the company name was retained until 1967 when it was changed to The Jarman Company. By then, the company was marketing its own golf bag, the Cart-Mate, which was designed to attach to the Bag Boy cart by means of a few part changes. With continuous improvement in both design and methods in all products and procedures, the Bag Boy Company had grown to be international in scope. In 1993, AMF Industries bought The Bag Boy Company and relocated it to Richmond, Virginia making it a division of The Ben Hogan Company. When the Hogan Company was sold to Spalding in 1997, a small group of managers and employees, along with the current owner, held The Bag Boy Company out of the sale to run as a stand-alone company.

Solid piece of work November 7, 2005

This cart looks fantastic. The aluminum really shows off. Very high quality material. The wheels are really nice; large and smooth.
Arrived in original box. Assembly was very straightfoward: take it out, snap the two wheels on, and done. 10 seconds to figure all that out. There is not much of a "manual" so the user is pretty much on his own.
The height of the handle is adjustable within a pretty narrow range, but the lowest setting is just right for me. It has a scorecard holder which snaps to two layers of paper (so you have to fold the scorecard, otherwise it's loose). The pencil holder works. It has two ballholding slots, and they don't seem to be the same size (i.e. the same ball is loose in one, doesn't fit in the other); not sure if it's by design. I had a TopFlite XL that wouldn't fit in either slot, but Titleist and Callaways do. The 4 tee holders and the waterbottle + holder is convenient.
For some reason, the top strap is a bit too high for my bag so it's a bit undesirable.
It does the job. Very easy to roll up and down the hill. Tipped over once for me on a steep hill. Very easy to clean. Detach the wheels and hose them and you're pretty much done. Great price here on Amazon too.
