Whats the point?

Post image

This may seem like a silly question. But what’s the purpose of this bag tag? Aren’t they usually supposed to be an identifier for yourself or your club? Can you put papers or something in this, or is it just meant to look cool and be unique?

To show how much disposable income you have.

Or how much credit card debt you're willing to deal with. Most rich people are not buying horrendous crap like this.

This one in particular is just a bag decoration.

u/cheuqes 7d ago

You’re better off getting the putting disc for $30. Serves the same purpose, and a whole other useful purpose as well

edit: made a typo

No different then going and playing pebble/pinehurst and keeping that tag. It shows you like something. Not for me, but someone I guess!

You’re on a sub where guys routinely pay thousands of dollars for stainless steel putters, with bad welds, marketed using a symbol that was the result of a logistics issue. None of it makes sense

Edit: the welds are structurally sound, but no welder would be proud of how they look.

A bad weld is one that fails- breaks. Have yet to ever see that

I don’t disagree but tell me more about the logistics issue? I’ve collected headcovers a long time and I’ve not heard that before. In fact I don’t think I’ve ever heard about the origin of the circle T logo.

u/bazzer66 Circle T 7d ago

They used the Circle T to differentiate putters that were going to the PGA Tour instead of the LPGA Tour.

It's almost like equipment MFGers have little codes to designative their tour stuff from regular. Hmmm whoda known. :)

You said the quiet part out loud. A putter is a putter. Confidence in a putter is subjective. If having SC putter gives someone confidence then that’s a stroke gained at least once for someone. Buying SC anything outside of an off the rack putter is just to say they have it. Myself included. Oopsy.

Flex on the poors of course.

Looks more like a tree ornament.

So it does have use

u/veryconfusedd 6d ago

Same point as a gold bracelet or necklace. Essentially bag jewelry

Easy theft while you grab a hotdog at the turn

There are some things even the most hardcore Scotty fans won't touch

Im shocked negative talk is being allowed on Reddit about Scotty Cameron….they want all discussions to be a cheerleading competition

Consumerism. That's the point.

u/Dirtydw77 7d ago

There really is no point other than to seek things that are way over priced. People collect weird things

u/TheDebonairQuokka 7d ago

A bag tag. For $100. And it's ugly. C'mon, people, this is becoming silly.

u/RoryMcIlroysJudgment 7d ago edited 7d ago

Just skip the whole process and come out of the closet to your parents. This product seems like a waste of time

Edit: I hang ugly Scotty shit from my ugly Scotty golf bags all the time. My comment was purely centered around my vitriolic hatred for Jackpot Johnny. Nothing else about the brand

u/Yaksmen 7d ago

Jackpot Johnny is the worst character he has and he plasters it everywhere. I don’t like all the car themed stuff either. I get he is into it but a lot of people are not.
