Will your home owners insurance cover this loss?

I must have been foolish enough to leave my sky caddie in the cart - can't find it

Brilliant idea. It won't kill them (something that is important to some, me not so much:D) but it will send a message if nothing else. I know it works for my horse.

Probably not a good idea to "advertise" your clubs with a fancy logo bag and headcovers that scream "$600 driver". Go generic.

You may want to consider in the future getting an Apple Air Tag for tracking valuable such as Golf Bags. Carts and so on .

As deputy taking my report gal came out - her speaker stolen out of her cart too! Thieves on a roll today!

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.

Without knowing exactly where you were is it possible that you could have been near a store, or business that has cameras? Maybe there is an off chance that the thief could be found this way? I know it's a long shot but wanted to mention my thought.

Learned over 14 year’s ago, don’t trust anyone, anywhere, or anytime. Especially out of The Villages!

If it was a PXG bag, rain cover won't help.

Get a security cover from the Sarasota Custom Club Shop and a good lock and use them. I’ve been using one for many years and never had any problems. I also had the cart alarmed by Gold Shield Golf Cart Alarms; one on the cart and one on the back pull down bag cover.

Your horse steals golf clubs?

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!

Most thieves are lazy and looking for easy pickings.
