... and how about the gal who was all zipped, but thieves UNZIPPED her career to steal her speaker. Sounds unbelievable.
I'd suggest a tiny hidden camera, with phone monitoring, if this is the new normal.

Agree.

A Villager who wanted new clubs??
Golfers are always switching clubs between carts before & after a round.

Doubt they will show up on a site or at a pawn shop.

Suggestion
 
It is the world we live in. I have Apple AirTag glued inside one of the pockets of our bags. Park in the back of the CC where trucks can not drive. If no spaces available ,We try to back in to spot or park back to back to make access harder. Have long bike cable that connect to cart , winds through bags and bar on rear pull down cart cover . Make it harder to take bag and clubs since you can not lift cover to gain access.
Most thief’s want quick hit and go. Hopefully they pass me by

He also said locks can be a deterrent but if they see locks the thieves brain says….. good clubs….they cut the cable. Gone!

Moral of story : Don’t stop for a beer!

Or stop playing golf and just go for beers. ;-). Just kidding, I’m sorry that happened to you. Shame you can’t feel comfortable leaving things in your cart.

Anyone seeing set of PXG Gen 3 irons Gen 4 Hybrid (19-22) Gen 4 driver 9 degree. Odyssey putter. Kirkland wedges. Bag PXG black gray Flag bag. For sale anywhere please let me know. Have serial numbers.

I am not sure about this information but I would check with your insurance company, cart and homeowners as to wether the clubs are covered

I hope that you didn't have your garage door opener in your cart. Many people leave them on the dashboard and then if their name is anywhere in the cart, the thief has at the minimum access to their garage, maybe even house.

AirTag
 
Place hidden AirTags in your cart and golf bag. Also place one in your car and suitcases when traveling.

Things are changing and just recently there are new folks who are low lives living way too close to us in The Villages. Crime is up in surrounding areas of Lake Nona, Ocala, and Leesburg. I see people walking along the cart path now on 466 that I know don't live here. Be very careful. Buy a security camera if you don't have one. Keep your garage door closed and your doors locked.

If you have an iPhone try inserting/dropping an AirTag(about the size of a quarter) into your bag. Can track your bag anywhere and see where it is located. Don’t go alone. Have a sheriff go with you so you don’t get ruffed up.

Are they covered under your home owners insurance?
