Attaching Towel to Bag?

[BRISTOL86]

This is probably a silly question...but is there a particular "done" way of attaching your towel to your bag?

My bag (TM R1) has a towel ring but when I attach the carabiner from the towel to it, it's so low that the towel nearly drags the floor!

So, how do you attach yours?!

EDIT - I realise that this is the least of my worries as a beginner golfer - but I'm going to a "proper" golf club on the weekend and don't want to set off any more alarms that scream "newbie alert" than I already will with my playing! :lol:

I put mine on the carabiner and then thread it through the top carry handle/strap to stop it dragging so low!

Just staple it, you will be fine :thup:

 

[Hovisbap]

I hang mine on my trolley

Get a smaller towel

I have the same problem with a srixon towel I have. I just throw it over my bag or pass it through the carry handle to tuck it out of the way.

There is not right or wrong way just anyway that keeps it away from wheels.

Buy a smaller towel may be the answer.

Or....use the scissors

Or..... do what most proper golfers do, nick a bar towel.

I tuck mine into my trousers.

1. smaller towel
2. tall caddy

your choice

not sure about staples, probably better to cut the towel into more appropriate pieces than go that route for my money.

Wear it like a turban.

You need to be fitted for your towel

or use a flannel

If it's a hot day tie a knot in each corner then wear it on your head.

excellent point - probably worthy of a new thread...

This is the correct answer......I cannot stress enough the importance of being properly fitted for every bit of your equipment. People always forget about tee, glove, towel, trolley and umbrella fittings :thup:

Alternatively, just drape your towel over your clubs if you want to look good

ps.....never EVER carry your bag so that your clubs are pointing directly upwards, complete rookie mistake

What?! I've just got custom fitted for my ball marker...this golf thing is costing a FORTUNE!!

At least we're not all bickering

Club Glove make some 'Caddie Towels' that have a slot in the middle, so you hang them over a club. Cost about a tenner on some web sites. Can be carried onto a green to wipe the ball rather than having to trek back and forth. I still managed to lose one though!

Remember to dampen about 50% before you go out. Makes cleaning things much easier but can dampen clothes etc if carrying!

I'll second that!
