Cart Player Setup
Updated How we research
A cart changes what you can bring to a round, and once you stop carrying weight you tend to bring more of everything. This setup pairs a frame with a bag designed to sit on it, then adds the accessories that make the rig genuinely useful: drink storage, mounting hardware, and a home for the overflow plastic in the garage. The page is split into five sections (Carts; Cart-Ready Bags; Cart Accessories; Cooler Bags; Disc Storage At Home), followed by every pick ranked by our score so you can compare them in one place.
