Sustainable golf: How wooden bag tags make the difference

Wood instead of plastic in golf

Sustainability has long been more than just a buzzword in golf. More and more golf clubs are focusing on environmental responsibility – whether in the maintenance of their facilities or in the choice of environmentally friendly products. At the heart of this development is the initiative “Golf & Nature” of the German Golf Association (DGV), which supports clubs in maintaining their courses in a way that conserves resources and promotes biodiversity.

Environmentally friendly down to the last detail – wooden bag tags

A successful example of sustainability in golf is shown by the Baden-Württemberg Golf Association (BWGV), To the 50th anniversary of the association, an environmentally friendly version of the classic bag tag was chosen for the President's Cup:
➡️ A high-quality bag tag made of alder wood, exclusively manufactured by clubtags.

This special bag tag combines aesthetics, functionality and environmental awareness:

  • Alder wood from sustainable forestry

  • 80 mm diameter, 5 mm thick

  • Durable thanks to a seal with natural clear varnish

  • Individually engraved with player name and association logo

Wood instead of plastic: A sign of conscious consumption in golf

Products like this Bagtag from the ECO Line by clubtags symbolize a new way of thinking in golf. While plastic and metal once dominated, today more and more clubs are turning to renewable raw materials – even with Tournament equipment, member giveaways and event products.

Why wood?

  • It looks natural, high-quality and warm.

  • It is biodegradable and Low CO₂ in processing.

  • It offers a high-quality appearance that perfectly matches the premium character of many golf courses.

Golf & Nature: The DGV initiative

With the program “Golf & Nature” The DGV has been promoting the ecological development of German golf courses for years. Support is provided to, among others,

  • Measures to reduce water consumption
