WhiteHawk Hitch

Is there a hitch that can be welded or bolted to the frame of a White Hawk to pull a small trailer with golf cart?

I looked at laws in texas and it doesn't state that pulling 2 trailers and one being a 5th wheel.

So I was thinkering on the idea of double pulling for our short trips.

I have seen some adjustable frame mounted hitches but wasn't sure if there was one specific for a Jayco or WHiteHawk.

Just kicking around the idea, I don't like the thought of double towing but we have a resort that is 40 min away and it is golf cart friendly and making 2 trips each direction isn't practical.

What are you towing with? Will the cart not fit in you bed? I would think you will have to just find a hitch from e-trailer, etc and install it. A good welder could fab something up in a couple hours too. Not sure how old your unit is, but it will void your warranty.

Measure the total length of your truck, and both trailers. You can't be over 65' in total length to be legal. Might be close.

Thanks Gents

We are pulling with a 2019 F250 6.7. We have a 29BH Whitehawk (also a 2019).

The trailer with our golf cart is 11 ft. I would be right at the 65 ft number in total length.

Now that I think about it, I am probably a tad longer than 65 ft. More like 66 or 67.

If the cart will fit in your bed, that’s the best solution. Get some airbags, loaded it in, and call it a day.
You probably won’t get pulled over for being a couple feet over, but towing double bumper pull sucks. You can’t feel the rear trailer(and sometimes can’t see it) until the sway is already bad. It’s a tough balance trying to get enough weight on the tongue of the rear trailer to make it stable without removing too much from the front trailer and making it unstable.
