I bought a couple at golf shop$50. but a great investment. They could cut the cable, but they don’t want to take that long. Quick is the trick!

There appears to be slim pickings for an Android version of an Air Tag.

I have checked the airtags and TILE tracking devices and they only have a range of about 300 feet. And if the thief has an apple phone he will know that the airtag is there and can disable it by taking the battery out. Not a great solution.

Hearing what happened at Cane Garden is enough to make one want to purposely leave the clubs unlocked in the parking lot in front of the clubhouse, take out the seven iron, hide out someplace close by, and wait for the low life scumbag to try to steal the sticks. That would be priceless justice.

There seems to be no fear of anything happening to them if caught.

Not all thieves are bright enough to check for trackers.
Your only real solution if no suggestions are viable, is never leave your clubs out of sight unattended.
Works 99.99% all the time!

Just make sure you are using steel shafts.
