I have a bit of a problem here. I have about a 15-30 min bike ride from a course I was going to get a membership at from my house. The price is great and there are barely any restrictions. This is the only course that I can get a membership around here but here is the problem: They don't offer club storage.

So basically, I really can't get a membership there anymore because I cant carry my clubs on my back while biking almost everyday. My parents would be able to give me a ride, but not all the time So i wouldn't be able to go as often as I would like to.

The upside is I get the next stage of my license in september where i can drive alone. So i have to find something to rig up until then.

Maybe im not thinking here, do you guys have any idea on what I can do, to make my trip there on a bike less aggrivating with clubs on my back?

Walk?

Maybe you have a neighbour who would oblige a lift on occasion.

Get a taxi (extreme, I know, but this is golf we're talking about)

Those are pretty crappy ideas, but Its late and I'm drawing blanks on this one. I'll post again if anything springs to mind.

If you are going to walk, why not get a motorized cart? You won't have to carry or push it. It will do all the work.

Theres no way I'd have enough for that. I guess what I meant to get at, is there anything I can rig up to carry my clubs on my bike?

Here's what you could do. One, ask your parents to spring for the Bag Boy Golf Bag with Clip Lok Technology. It locks the clubs securely in place and there is no club rattle. You can then carry these on your back without worrying that they will fall out.

If that's not a good idea, you can add a fender to your bike. You can then rest your bag, upright and run velcro straps from the bag to your handle bars. Yes, it will look weird but it will be secure. If these ideas stink, I think they might, , find out who plays, daily and get a ride. Give him/her some cash for gas and return the favor once you get your license.

I could try that, but it would be such a commute every day doing that.

You'd be getting great excersise with a bag on your back and riding a bike, you will be bigger than Tiger in no time.

True, but then again it could be really bad on my back, and I would be tired before I even got on the course.

Go to a bike store and get them to mount a rear tie down rack that connects to the frame below your seat and the to the rear wheel mounting nuts. You could then tie down your clubs across the back and ride your bike.

You could also try talking to the pro and the course and explain your situation. There has to be a closet or something where they may let you keep your stix.

Uhm, why not store your clubs at the course? Don't they have that as an option?

get a super light carry bag and only take your odd numbered irons?

aha that would really take the fun out of the game and ruin my scores..

I think i found a way though, one of my friends lives right by the course, So i could probably store my clubs there.

And just because they don't offer "club storage" doesn't mean you shouldn't ask or that they might not be able to do something for you.

How about getting one of those trailers for bikes that people put their kids in. I'm pretty sure you could rig up one of those to carry clubs, although they might cost a fair amount (i really have no idea)

I sent them an email yesterday asking if they could do that, and they said they have no way of doing so. But maybe they dont take teenagers seriously.

Im going to go there tomorrow and ask in person.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By collegefbfan ·

      Yeah.  As far as remaining still, I was thinking body rotates around the spine like an axis.  Instead of pivoting, some like me, sway, come off that axis, leave weight on back foot, etc.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      I apologize on behalf of… idiot men. Sorry about that. Next time, tell the guy to shut up. 😛  Day 553, May 8, 2024 18 holes from the whites with @rwolfe. Windy AF today, but hit some good shots. Slid back a little from where I was the previous two days, but… I can get it back. Made a pretty nifty birdie on 12 from some pretty odd places. 😄

      The angles look fine. Get as much light as you can on the area — you want the highest shutter speed you can get. Less blur.

      2024 TST Birdie Challenge

      By Sammydreep ·

      Snap @ Tour Spoon! Birdied 11 yesterday. Hit a poor iron ,stopped on edge of bunker , pitch with my lob wedge landed about 6’ away and went in. Only 12 & 14 to go, long par5’s into the prevailing wind. Might be waiting a while although I did have about 15’ on 12 after the birdie on 11, didn’t miss by much.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By RandyBobbitt ·

      Tested the Maxfli TourS yesterday. Compared to my former ball, the Titleist AVX, I got an extra 10 yards off the driver and half a club (5-7 yards) off the irons. The combined extra yardage from the driver and fairway wood meant that on par-5s where I usually hit an 8-iron third shot, I hit a PW. It's just a smidgen softer than the AVX and seems to spin well. Some of the reviews indicated a low ball flight, but I did not notice it. I also did not observe any problems with the paint quality, which was an issue with previous Maxfli models up to and including the U series.  My previous round I tested the Bridgestone E6, a two-piece ball with a different cover. It was OK; the same distance and feel as the AVX but with less spin.
