Breakthrough in Golf Cart Design… Perhaps Not

Earlier this week I authored a post that takes a look at the patents of Dave Pelz, Phil Mickelson’s short-game coach.

It got me thinking… is Butch Harmon, Phil’s other coach, listed as an inventor on any patents? Well, the answer is no… but in the process of researching the issue I happened across an interesting invention of a Mr. Al Harmon (I have no idea if they are related).

Al’s invention (disclosed in USPN 4,792,149) is a pedal powered golf cart. Interesting concept. Would you pay to rent a cart that you had to pedal?
