The Disabled Golf Society and Horizon Mobility Ltd have come together to offer a new range of golf buggies. Designed to have a wide range of flexibility and functionality, this will allow any disabled golfer, regardless of ability, to enjoy their game of golf to the full.
Starting with a 24v 1400watt RMS drive and 2 x 75 amp batteries this will provide more than enough power for travelling even the most challenging of golf courses. A front mounted bag area and rotating seat will allow the playing of any stroke off the back of the buggy. Controls are designed for ease of use by either hand, or both and if necessary be set during the build to the golfer’s preferred location. Made with the latest modern techniques and materials available, the buggy is of a high quality and will aid the golfer with his or her game.
The basic golf buggy can be supplied to you, fully fitted, ready to play for £(TBC) zero rated, with an ongoing finance and cover package for either 3 or 5 years. This will include an annual service, part’s (inclusive of batteries and tyres), warranty for all non accidental/misuse repairs and a loan vehicle while repairs are being made in the unlikely event of a failure that cannot be repaired on the day. Thus ensuring golfers will not miss out. Buggies can also be hired for £20 (zero rated) per use.

The Disabled Golf Society and Standup and Play Foundation are working as partners in the UK to promote the ParaGolfer® to all members.
The ParaGolfer® was designed especially for disabled golfers to overcome the physical limitation when playing golf. With its patented stand-up device, strong chassis frame and combination of practical know-how, the ParaGolfer® can cope with gradients of up to 30 degrees and sideways inclinations of about 17 degrees.
The ParaGolfer® will turn automatically into a safe position should these limits be exceeded. The design allows for an absolutely secure footing in any position and its unequalled stability when the golfer is hitting the ball. With it innovative ideas for maximum playing fun, the all-terrain ParaGolfer® enables disabled golfers performance improvements comparable to those of non-handicapped players.
Anthony Netto, who is an international ambassador for challenged Golf and the best wheelchair Golfer in the world has this to say about the ParaGolfer®
“When learning how to walk you have to stand up once more than you fall down. This applies for both a small child and an adult. It holds true for learning how to walk, but in a transferred sense also for life itself. With a handicap it is an even steeper challenge. I have experienced that myself. For every physically handicapped person the ParaGolfer® is an important and valuable tool that gives you a bit more freedom.”
