Motocaddy are back with a bang for 2021 – and there are some serious technology upgrades including cellular capabilities in the new M5 GPS, M5 GPS DHC and M-Tech models. (More on those in a moment.)
Each of these models will come with a built-in SIM card – like you would find in your mobile phone – to take the GPS to the next level with real-time course mapping, updates, and performance tracking data.
If you choose to purchase an annual subscription package you will now be able to access full hole mapping, see greenside hazards as well as the green outline, and see a summary and statistics on your round. Everyone will be offered a free try-before-you-subscribe period.
If you’re reading this and you bought the M5 GPS last year, then stop shaking that fist. The cellular technology was backdated and is available in all current models as well as the new releases.
So let’s take a look at the 2021 range from Motocaddy, starting with their most premium offering…
Motocaddy trolleys 2021: M-Tech
This is Motocaddy’s top of the range, premium model thanks to its striking design and numerous luxury finishes.
I reviewed the previous iteration – and you can watch that here – but for 2021 it has been upgraded to include Motocaddy’s cellular and GPS technology, while a new high-resolution 3.5-inch LCD touchscreen display is added to hand-stitched leather handle grips, polished chrome detailing, and carbon-fibre styling.
It also features automatic downhill control, as well as other neat touches like shot measurement, score tracker, and round timer.
RRP: £1,299.99
Motocaddy trolleys 2021: M7 Remote
This is Motocaddy’s remote control model (what gave it away?) which boasts an impressive 50-metre range.
It is also adaptable and can be converted to manual mode if you are in a situation where you would rather control the trolley by hand.
It comes with automatic downhill control as standard and also features a handy lock feature to prevent you from accidentally setting your trolley off down the fairway. We’ve all been there haven’t we?
