24's are about 75 amp hours (150 total), They are likely marine/Deep cycle which means you can safely use perhaps 20-25 percent of that (Let's be kind, 40 amp hours usable)
Your GC-2's are 220-230 amp hours, You can safely use half the charge in a true Deep Cycle battery, or 110-115 amp hours.
That's a LOT more
I tend to agree, the group 24 will only have about 1/3 the capacity of the pair of golf cart batteries, and the golf cart batteries shoule last well over 5 years, while the group 24 you will have to take great care of them to get a full 3 years.
