Golf bag strap

Just to prove we like turning our hands to anything and everything, even if we're not quite sure how to do it! As you know recently we had a go at making our own bespoke dog collars, which we were so enthused about. When we showed my friends dad he immediately said....that'd be just perfect for my golf bag, can you make me one? We said of course we could, and then we both scratched our heads and thought, hmmm, now what do we do!

We studied the golf bag, took measurements, then looked at the bracket that the strap would have to fit through. Once we'd worked out what the function of the strap was (to hold the golf bag securely onto the golf trolley) and then worked out what we needed. Then it was just a case of sourcing the materials as it were!
  
So off we went round the internet to see if we could get a good buy. We already knew what size hardware we needed to make dog collars (20mm buckles, D-ring, slide adjuster) and we worked out that the golf bag strap ought to be the next size up, 25mm. After what seemed like an age, we sourced all that we needed from a company called Lyndas Horsewear. We even managed to order the 25mm black webbing with reflective stitching for the golf strap itself. So as soon as the parcel arrived we couldn't wait to whiz up two golf straps.

And here they are, doing there job!

 
 
 
And the owner is very pleased with his new designer straps!
