Golf Bag Repair - Broken Leg

[RJH]

I've got an IZZO Ultra Light Stand bag and the leg splintered off at the connection point at the top of the bag. It's a number of years old (more than 1 - No Warranty) and IZZO doesn't have replacement parts.

Anyone have any suggestions on repairing a broken leg on a golf bag?

Start saving for a new bag. I doubt there is much you can do for it. Tape or glue won't last as much as the leg is used. It probably wouldn't be worth the time or expence to fix it anyway.

^^Exactly my thinking, by the time you fix it, you could have put that towards a new bag. Even if you just got a cheap one for the time being, that would be better than putting more money into an already busted bag

Here is what I did on my Ping Hoofer bag: I took an old graphite callaway warbird 5 wood I had and cut the shaft at the head and just below the grip. I measured the length needed and cut to fit. I took some club head epoxy and glued into the holder. It works perfect and looks identical due to it being a black shaft!!

It saved me from buying a new bag.

That's pretty much exactly what a friend of mine did when he broke the leg of his stand bag and it's still going strong. He also put a inch long end piece of a grip on the end to stop it scraping against the ground too much.

Good Job! I love Magyver type repairs. I'm constantly fiddling with stuff to make it work better/last longer. I fashioned my pool cover drain out of some 1/2 inch tubing, a wiffle golf ball (filter) and a busted shaft of a 5 iron that still had the grip. Give me some old parts, some JB weld, my bench vise and a hacksaw, I'll fix it!
