If west palm isn't too far for you to drive I have bought from these guys. They do have a processing fee if you use a credit card but these were the best prices I could find on trojan or crown batteries in my area. They are a legitimate business you can walk in off the street but they also advertise on craigslist.

Call Battery Boys, or Battery Brothers- 2 unrelated companies, but if you just want batteries and you install, they will be your best bet

Thank you.

Anyone have experience with the Sam Club Duracell (deca?) Golf cart batteries?

There are numerous opinions on here about battery type. I have always stuck to trojan or crown for long term reliability. I bought cart before with Deca batteries and didn't get the same life out of them assuming they were bought when the seller told me they were. I just got 5.5 years out of a set of trojans and it would still go 18 holes.

Not sure why link isn't working I click it and it works fine. If you are interested in the place in west palm just go to craigslist and under south Florida craigslist type in Cart connection and it should come up. They are in West Palm Beach.

Here is the prices for comparison.
New:
Crown 6v $119
Crown 8v $129
Crown 12v $199 150AH

Interstate 6V $119
Interstate 8V $129
Trojan T-105 6V $139
Trojan T-605 6V $129
Trojan T-875 8V $139
Trojan 30XHS 12V $215

I did end up looking at existing posts and searching for info on batteries for awhile last night.

From what I gather it looks like the Deka Duracell from Sam's Club may suit our purposes ok, and is convenient purchase. We basically are two small children and two adults that use cart to ride maybe 3 miles each way to the beach here in Florida.

I'd be ok with deka lasting 4-5 years which others have said they will?

If trojan battery dealer were closer to me I would go that route but driving 100 miles each way to west palm for batteries loses half day, along with added battery price.

I haven't bought anything yet so perhaps I'll call local golf club and try to ask how they get batteries.

Thank you,
