Current Projects

Using the principles of modularity and circular economy, we are developing the last golf bag golfers will ever buy. Disrupting the saturated golf bag market, we want to give golfers customization, repairability without the hassle.

Problem
47% of golfers buy a new golf bag once a year; however, these are necessity purchases as many just want a working and up-to-date looking bag.

Solution
A modular golf bag with allows the owner to replace the broken and outdate parts without having to switch to a complete new one

Type of activity
Entrepreneurial

Why am I excited about it?
My brother (who is a professional golfer) and I grew up with golf, but we are fed up that our golf bags weren’t growing with our game. Now we will fix it together!
