Thinking like a criminal with an iPhone, once I realize I'm being tracked, I figure I have a very limited amount of time to find the tracker or ditch the item with the tracker. If you put it in a difficult to find spot on your golf cart, that would work. No one is going to spend an hour or two going over every inch of a golf cart looking for it. As for your purse, they already ditched the purse, grabbed your wallet, then ditched that and took your cash and cards.

My only caution if used on your golf cart is imagine how many people will get the warning as you drive around!
Missing the point airtag would only be seen by other iPhone if it was in Lost Mode, if not nobody except owner knows it’s there. So your cart or in our case our cat, could be stolen, owner can track on their phone without Lost Mode. So whoever takes your stuff (or your lost pet) doesn’t know they are been tracked if they have an IPhone unless Lost Mode is activated. So owner can track the airtag, on their phone with the map that shows the item is traveling or has stopped
