Needle in a haystack.....maybe

I have a titleist staff bag. I'm soon to start playing in a few tournaments and I believe a few will be walking only ones. I'm currently looking for the strap that makes it like a backpack, like you see the caddies on tour tote. Do I need to contact titleist to purchase one? I've already called TGW and they do not sell them.

Just to go ahead and get it out, I do have a walking bag. I would use it but my wife and kids bought me this bag last year for Father's Day and I don't want to break my kids heart by not using it.

Thanks for any help!

7 or so years ago they were using the Izzo Ionetix dual strap system a lot and the newer variations are still in use by many as well.

There is one made by Sun Mountain also. Hard to find though.

Hope this helps.

A lot of tour caddies have a strap like this on the bags. Not sure if they're made by the manufacturer or available at retail. I'm sure they still exist, like the above poster said, izzo made one forever.

You're going to lug your staff bag around yourself?

This is what you want, but looks like they're out of stock.

Vessel was going to be my suggestion too... two options, one to add to the existing strap and one to replace it completely. That said... you'll spend about the same for a decent used stand bag from Craig's List and thank us later.

Put the Staff bag on some kind of push cart.

Yea, like I said in original post kids and wife bought it for me for Father's Day last year. I changed it out for a tournament last fall to my walking bag and my daughter got a little upset with me. Anyone else I wouldn't care but when it comes to my baby girl I hate making her upset.

I saved the page so I'll just keep checking. I've also thought about buying a second single strap and just rigging something up for the time being. Worse case I'll take the staff bag and walking bag and just switch at course. That way they'll never know and I won't be on the S list lol.

I may still have one floating around. I will check. It is an older IZZO iirc.

Yeah if you have walk only ones I would do the bag swap out.

Just put the carry bag together the night before and leave the irons out. Show putting the staff bag in with the irons etc and then when you get to the course you are only pulling the irons out and putting them into the walking bag and not everything else.
