Is your golf bag twisting on your traveling golf cart? Does that interfere with your gameplay or make it less enjoyable? If so, this article can give you some tips to help prevent your bag from twisting.

Golf bag twisting occurs on some traveling golf carts, as some bag manufacturers advertise non-twisting features on their bags.

If you use a walking golf cart, your golf bag may occasionally become twisted. And if you’re like me, you find that aggravating. To do? Solutions to this problem fall into two general categories (1) store-bought or (2) homemade.

1. Store Bought Solutions:

Some golf bag manufacturers advertise anti-twist features on their bags. Torque-free fabricated solutions fall into the following general categories:

  • Anti-twist sleeves: The trolley strap is passed through the anti-twist sleeve of the bag.
  • anti-twist strap: A strap on the bag is attached to the cart frame.
  • Anti-slip materials applied to the bottom of the bag.
  • The shape of the bottom of the bag.

There is also a hint in the manufacturer’s advertisements that the weight of the bag or the weight distribution of the club may be the cause of the bag twisting.

2. Home solutions:

Before you start shopping for a replacement bag, we recommend that you first try the ideas listed below. They are all cheap. We recommend that they be tested in the sequence indicated.

  1. Check the weight distribution of your clubs to see if the distribution can be better balanced without sacrificing convenient access to your clubs.

  2. Check your bag to see if a car strap or straps can be conveniently threaded through any straps or bag openings.

  3. Get a bungee cord, attach it around some part of the frame (the bottom is probably best), and pull it hard. This could possibly add enough force to prevent the bag from twisting.

  4. Alternatively, use the bungee cord to find a strap or hole through which it can be threaded. Some kind of makeshift anti-twist bag sleeve. (There is an unused bottom umbrella hole in my bag that would probably work just fine.)

  5. Reverse solution #4 so that the bungee cord is attached to the bag and then threaded through some part of the cart frame.

  6. Find some non-slip material (like the kind used on kitchen cabinets) and tape it to the bottom of your bag.

  7. You may also be able to apply the same non-slip material to the cart, either on the bottom bracket or inside the top strap.

  8. If all these solutions fail, you may want to consider purchasing a lighter bag with the manufacturer’s “no twist” feature.

One of these solutions should work for your situation. I hope you have found these tips helpful in making your golf experience more enjoyable.
