We tested and reviewed the Stewart X9 Follow trolley at Moor Allerton in Leeds. Conditions were dry, fairways were dry and firm. It’s a hilly golf course so a good test for any trolley.

First impressions of the Stewart X9 Follow trolley
I’d had previous experience of remote control trolleys and I wouldn’t say they were all positive so I was a little daunted about using this trolley.
After taking it out of the box I was impressed at how easy it was to assemble and fire up for action.
I had expected the set-up process to be quite fiddly but it really couldn’t have been easy.
It was a case of charging up the battery and the remote and turning them both on.
I got to grips with the controls in the office which probably wasn’t the best idea.
Especially with no bag of golf club attached, the Stewart X9 Follow is very quick off the mark and if you’re not careful it will be clattering into office tables and chairs…
The Stewart X9 follow folds up easily into a fairly small size so it fits easily in your boot or on the back seat. It is quite heavy though.
The technology on the Stewart X9 Follow trolley
The handset connects to the trolley via Bluetooth at the touch of a button.
Simply use the controls forward, left, right or stop in manual mode or press the follow button and, with the remote clipped on to your back pocket, the trolley will follow you along the fairway.
There’s integrated downhill breaking which is a bonus on a hill golf course to stop the trolley from running away from you.
