Ouch. I can sympathize. A few years ago I did a complete rebuild of my twenty year old garden tractor to dedicate it to wood hauling and snow plowing duty. I spent every night for weeks in the garage tearing it completely down and replacing parts and sanding and painting.

Two weeks after I got done a pine went down one night right on top of it and flattened it.
 
Damn SmokinPiney that's a shame that happened, Club Car looked in pretty good shape too. btw I have a '75 G1 that's still running nicely...getting ready to take my granddaughter for a berry picking ride in it shortly.
 
Oh snap!!!

That really sucks!!!

I do have to ask though... do you always park your golf carts in the woods?

looks to me like those golf carts were antagonizing that pine by pulling off the bark. But just look at that poor innocent 5 gallon pail that got ruined. what sad times are these.

haha course we do! Actually the camo cart had some issues so it got parked temporarily (well for good now) and the club car was for parts. That's kind of our "junk" road.

And yes we lost a perfectly good 5 gal bucket in the wreck.. R.I.P

Yep. The number one cause of gold cart destruction in the U.S. is burning pine. And it can make you go blind too.
 
MJ, your right! we used to have a club car mixed in back there. I didn't even take notice to which one got smashed. Just laughed and took the picture lol.
