I have used Game Golf for about a season now and have noticed about 5 of the tags for clubs have broken. I was at the driving range a week or so ago when the last one broke after hitting a ball. I looked at the tag and it tends to break cleanly at the weld/seam, I'll attach a photo to better illustrate. I was curious if anyone else has ran into this issue?

I've had this happen recently on 2 clubs. They sit back on okay as thr separation is clean but come off again with use so I was thinking of glueing them back on (carefully).

I've had this happen aswell. Putting the clubs in the bag gently helps keep the tags in one piece.

I have a couple break this year.
One was found by a friend who turned it in to our pro shop and the other I found in the bottom of my wife's golf bag.
I emailed GG and they cordially replaced them. They have been 100% behind their products with support and free replacement.

I haven't had one break that really wasn't my own fault. My pinky finger was on the butt of the grip up until 2 days ago. So, I sheared off the tags one at a time with my gloved hand. :-P

Now that I choke down to the proper grip position, I don't think that will happen anymore. I'll give GG a call and see if they would replace my tags even though it was "user error"? If not, tagging by hand is no big deal with the app anyway. The app is just as accurate, if not more so with my iPhone 6S plus. I got the Live really cheap anyway, no big deal. . .

I did write to them originally when it was just 1 or 2 clubs and was sent a link to buy replacements. At that time it was $5 per tag plus shipping which isn't an insane amount of money but it just kinda sucks having to replace half a set of tags after half a season of use. I may try writing to them again later tonight.

FWIW, I've had tags in for two years and haven't had a single one break like that.

My buddy had his putter tag break like that, however I think it was from slamming his putter in the bag. Ive never had a tag break that way, but I've seen it before.

I'm pretty good about sliding clubs back into my bag and not being over aggressive with it. I could have just got a bad batch of tags.

I've had the tags on since just after Christmas (maybe a dozen rounds), and I do notice they're a little worn already, but no breakage so far.

I wonder if the breakage issue makes a stronger argument for some users to consider the Golf Pride/GameGolf grips (assuming they like that style of grip).

Pretty sure that idea died before it got off the ground.

They announced it 16 months ago at the PGA Show. They were on the site, but never sold.

I guess time flies, seems like it wasn't that long ago.  Oh well, not an option either way.  Hopefully the folks experiencing the issues with tags, just got a bad batch or something.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 ·

      Didn’t score the best, but probably the best I’ve done implementing the swing feels on the course.  Preshot routine - make one practice swing hands down only hitting  the ground like 3 ft behind the ball. Make a 2nd practice swing where I add a bit of turn back in.  Set up and make a swing with those feels. Driver - A stripe show. Just laser beams at my target. Like under 10 yards of curve. Irons - pretty solid. Contact was flush. Just slight pull draws. Just need a bit of face control. It’s close. I had an 8 iron that left the club, didn’t leave the flagstick. The ball probably moved 1 yard in the air. I came up like 4 yards short.  Distance wedges - Needs work.  Short Game - needs work from different lies. Putting - Made almost everything inside of 10 ft.  Going forwards, still going to work on the swing. Backswing length and arms down stuff. I need to work on my distance wedges a lot.

      Reasonably dry by the afternoon/evening. Some players not seeing many or any mud balls. Maybe they should have hit their tee shots lower. 🙂  Also, for as much as this was supposed to be a bomber's paradise… Luke Donald is T3. He'll turn 48 this year.

      I watched the Golf Channel last night, and they showed the wet fairways.  Squishy!
