Does anyone have any experience towing their airplane with a golf cart? I'm
thinking about mounting a ball on the front of a golf cart to move my
Bonanza in and out of the hangar.

Many thanks.

The FBO at my airport uses electric golf carts. They've got a ball
hitch on both the front and back bumpers of the cart. The towbar they
use is around 6 feet long and it works fine to pull aircraft in and
around the ramp. Haven't used it for anything but singles, don't know
if it has enough power to jockey a twin around.
