Wilson Staff's Eco-Carry may be the next big thing in golf. The gold bag is an environmentally friendly bag made from plastic bottles. 100 percent recyclable, it uses 12 gallon-sexed bottles that are crushed into flakes, made into fibers, and then woven. The production of these bags release 70 percent less carbon dioxide compared to regular bags. In addition, the bag comes in an earthy, moss color and has all the functions of a regular golf bag.
I never knew you can make yarn from plastic. This bag may lead to more bags made from plastic. What an eco-friendly alternative. I kind of wish I golf and need a new bag!

Cool! Actually the company Patagonia uses a lot of plastic recyclable material for their fleeces.
