Default G19

I just have a question about life span of my batteries, the cart starts out at about 50 volts from full charge but the cart does not make it about a mile before they are down to about 60%. Is this normal or is something wrong, batteries are only 2 years old and have never been dry. The cart is running on a Alltrax 600 amp controller and a 8.5 motor fro D&D. Heres a link to the batteries I am using.

If you are down to 60% in a mile, your batteries have seen better days. I would get them load tested and also make sure you are getting a full charge on them to start with. Also verify that your meter is reading correctly.
