Welcome to the X10 Follow
The Stewart Golf X10 Follow is widely regarded as the world’s finest golf trolley.
- Walk totally handsfree with new proprietary 7th Generation Follow Technology
- Stay in control with Remote Control range up to 50m (55 yards)
- Extended battery life thanks to new EcoDrive Motors
- Choose from 18- and 36-hole battery options
- Secure Bluetooth communication
- Downhill Braking
- Rechargeable handset with USB cable
- Iconic Stewart Golf Design
The new X10 Lithium Follow differs visually from the previous X7 Lithium only by the badge on the back of the machine and the removal of the aerial – the real differences are where you can’t see them. Based on the same electronics system as the groundbreaking X10 Follow announced in April of 2015 the new X10 Remote uses the latest in Bluetooth technology to connect the machine to the compact handset.
The accuracy of the new Bluetooth communications system has allowed engineers at Stewart Golf to refine the remote steering even further. Coupled with the increased traction that the new V3 wheels provide, the X10 Remote is now smoother and more responsive than ever.

X Series Lithium Battery
The new Lithium Phosphate battery has been developed as a true 12V battery, which means that it can be used in any X Series (X1, X3, X5 or X7). There are no electronics changes or adjustments necessary; you can just start using the new Lithium battery as a direct replacement.
The battery is protected by a sophisticated battery management system that constantly monitors every cell to ensure the battery is always optimised for best performance and life. It is supplied with complete with battery lead and protective neoprene case. It is also supplied with a specially developed battery charger which will help keep the battery in top condition.
The compact handset allows you to move the machine forwards, reverse, faster, slower, left and right from up to 50 yards away. You can also program up to 4 walking speeds in to the handset, designed to allow the X10 Remote to resume your ideal speed at the touch of a single button.
By removing the stress and strain of having to constantly lift or push / pull your clubs your muscle activtiy when using a remote controlled trolley will be reduced. As a result your muscles will fatique slower as they are not being used as regulalry meaning you have a better chance of maintaining higher levels of performance on the golf for longer periods of time. This hypothesis supports our recent survey results, which found that customers who previously carried their golf clubs and have now switched to using a Stewart Golf trolley, have improved their golf game handicap on average by 3.6 strokes.
How It Works: The Follow system
In addition to the bluetooth electronics system, there are two further antennas that power the X10 Follow.
Mounted on each of the rear motors, the two antennas work together to create two zones; a neutral zone and an active zone.
When the handset is inside the neutral zone, the X10 Follow will remain stationary. As the handset enters the active zone, the X10 Follow’s electronics system will automatically & independently alter the speed of each rear motor to keep its pace. When the golfer (and therefore the handset) come to a stop, the X10 Follow will continue until the handset is back inside the neutral zone when it will also stop. The effect is that of digital elastic band, which stretches and contracts as you walk.
Practically the system is designed to be as user friendly as possible, so use is as simple as:
- Press the green ‘follow’ button and walk in front of the X10 Follow. The machine will fall in behind you and keep your walking pace.
- When you reach your ball & stop, the X10 Follow will also stop.
- Put the handset on the cradle, select your club and take your shot.
- Replace your club, put the handset back on your back pocket/belt and resume walking.
- The X10 Follow will again pick up your pace.
- If you stop for any reason (such as to let another player take a shot), the X10 Follow will stop behind you automatically. When you are ready, just start walking again and the X10 Follow will start again automatically.
REMOTE MODE
When you are approaching the tee or finding your ball in the long grass you may want to switch your X10 Follow into remote mode so you can send it off in your desired direction.
To switch to remote mode all you have to do is press any of the directional buttons on the handset and full remote control functionality will be available. From up to 50m you can speed the machine up and down, steer it left or right and stop it using either the orange ‘glide stop’ or red ’emergency stop’ buttons. If you prefer to have the machine in front of you sometimes, you have the option of setting two ‘cruise control’ speeds to suit your walking pace.
Once you are back in the Active Zone, you can switch back to Follow mode by pressing the green Follow button.
MANUAL MODE
In car parks or on paths, place the handset onto the cradle and set the trolley to travel at a constant speed by pressing either the forward button or one of the programmable cruise control buttons.
Using this method of steering over Remote or Follow will give you greater control over the trolley, ensuring you avoid any accidental collisions.
Bluetooth Technology
The X10 Follow uses the very latest in Bluetooth technology, as built into billions of products all over the world. Bluetooth provides an extremely stable platform from which to send and receive signals from the trolley to the handset.
Each X10 Follow comes with a handset already ‘paired’ to one another, meaning that you only have to turn them both on and they will connect automatically. Once the connection is made, it remains connected for the duration of your round. This means that signals are sent instantly and reliably, you won’t be waiting for a connection every time.
Rechargeable Lithium Handset
Another convenient feature of the X10 Follow is the new rechargeable handset.
Our engineers have kept the same compact handset case, but integrated a large lithium battery. This is charged via a new port on the right hand side (a charger is supplied). Whilst we recommend that the handset is charged after every round, the lithium battery means that you won’t have to replace the handset battery for many years.
Complete Remote Functionality
The X10 Follow also has complete remote control functionality, similar to previous X Series models. This is ideal for when you find yourself in the rough, or when you reach the green and want to send your X10 Follow to the next tee.
From up to 50m you can speed the machine up and down, steer it left or right and stop it using either the orange ‘glide stop’ or red ’emergency stop’ buttons. If you prefer to have the machine in front of you sometimes, you have the option of setting two ‘cruise control’ speeds to suit your walking pace.
Downhill Braking
The X10 Follow will automatically apply a braking force if you slow your pace when going down a hill.
Integrated Stabiliser
The X Series chassis has been proven to be the most stable on the market after more than a decade of use since the original X1.
As well as a wide rear wheelbase and twin front wheels, the chassis also contains an integrated stabiliser. Should the X10 Follow tip backwards when travelling up hill, it will ‘bounce’ on the stabiliser until it makes it back on to all 4 wheels. If the ground is damp or wet, the rear wheels may lose traction and you may need to assist from the handle.
