Wanted to get ideas on how to secure bag and clubs while on cart. Understand best security measure is not to leave on cart when not actively using but there are times that is not practical and want to at least install some level of security for the bag to the cart and to make it more difficult that just someone grabbing the clubs from the bag. Suggestions?

Everything is a deterrent AT BEST.

Covers, Cables, Alarms..............MIGHT deter.

Lots of people spend $100 and feel better.

As long as you are not advertising your brand new set in the parking lot, loss is very rare.

Pro shops sell a canvas cover with cable. Amazon has locks. Unit locks clubs /protects access to clubs. Makes theft difficult enough so they go to the next cart.

I’ve skied since I was kid all over New England...never once was any of my equipment stolen. Talk about a wide open racking system. But this is like the 3rd or 4th thread in as many months regarding clubs needing to be secured or others that have actually been stolen. Even in my groups up north or here...I’ve never seen anybody’s clubs lifted. Left in a bunker, on a green..and subsequently picked up, yes. But taken at a starter shack or in a parking lot...nope. Doesn’t mean there arent some outliers but if it’s that much of a concern....throw an audible alarm on the bag. The Amazon recs are a good starting point

Put an Apple AirTag in the bag. You will be notified on your iPhone and can track the bag and clubs. Also, a cover with integrated cable lock sold at the Country Clubs. Both of our carts and bags have this protection but nothing is 100%.

The same with me. Never a ski or a golf club stolen. This is just another TV paranoia. I'm sure it's happened somewhere, sometime ... I'm equally sure, someone has been struck by lightening, twice.

I have an extra one from the Pro shop. New cost is around $80. I'm selling for $50. Send me a note if you're interested!

Golf Central in Brownwood has the heavy canvas cover with the integrated cable for about $40. You will want to use a better lock than the one that comes with it, though. With these, you cover your clubs, and secure them to the framework of your cart. We often go out to eat after golf, and locking down your clubs while parked at a restaurant ain't a bad idea. The locking covers also make it difficult for someone to lift a single club out of your bag.

Use a no name golf bag, don't advertise your Ping , Calaway, or expensive brand name clubs.

[Calisport]

You will need to place your golf bag inside your closed golf car - hidden away. Placing a lock and cable to the back of the golf car will just make the thief take individual clubs. I always park as close to a restaurant or store if I have to leave my golf bag on or in the golf car.

I have a hard-sided OGIO bag used for travel. I’ve travel thousands of miles with this bag. It’ll be easier to steal the whole golf cart before they get your bag and/or clubs

I looked on Amazon as someone suggested and there was a traveling case $107, that locks which would protect your bag and the clubs. Unless there was something else, I did not find something that would address your issue. The problem with this item is setting it up, which is a process, it might be ideal for a traveling situation, but for daily use it's a bit impractical.
I think if you put your mind to it, you can devise a way to lock your bag to your cart and a cover for the bag that will also lock.
