a support member having a substantially linear longitudinal axis with a first surface and a second substantially flat surface opposite of the first surface;

a collar circumferentially disposed about said support member, and slidingly translatable along at least a portion of said longitudinal axis;

a lever pivotally mounted to said collar having a cam surface, wherein said cam surface is positioned to selectively engage said first surface at any position along the portion of said longitudinal axis of the support member;

wherein the collar is engaged with the second surface of the support member when the cam surface is engaged with the first surface such that the collar is friction locked in fixed position relative to the support member; and

a belt mounted to said collar.

2. The golf cart of claim 1 , wherein said collar is rotationally fixed to said support member.

3. The golf cart of claim 1 , wherein said lever is positioned on a first side of said collar and said belt is mounted to a second side of said collar.

4. The golf cart of claim 1 , wherein said collar includes an opening, and wherein said cam surface at least partially penetrates through said opening in a locked position.

5. The golf cart of claim 1 , further comprising a horizontal support platform, and wherein said collar is positioned at a height above said support platform.

6. The golf cart of claim 5 , wherein said support member is permanently affixed to said support platform.

7. The golf cart of claim 1 , wherein said collar is a two piece assembly.

8. The golf cart of claim 7 , wherein said collar assembles about said support member via a snap fit.

9. A motorized wheeled vehicle comprising:

a golf bag support platform;

a rod disposed generally normal to said support platform and having a substantially linear longitudinal axis and an exterior first surface and a substantially flat exterior second surface;

a collar circumferentially disposed about said rod, and slidingly translatable along said longitudinal axis, said collar includes an interior surface that is selectively engageable with said second surface;

a lever pivotally mounted to said collar and includes a cam surface, wherein said cam surface is positionable to selectively engage said first surface at any position along said longitudinal axis;

wherein the interior surface of the collar engages with the second surface of the rod in response to engagement of the cam surface with the first surface of the rod; and

a belt mounted to said collar suitable for securing a golf bag.

10. The motorized wheeled vehicle of claim 9 , wherein said rod extends from said support platform and is permanently mounted to said motorized vehicle.

11. The motorized wheeled vehicle of claim 9 , wherein said collar is moveable in a limited range along said rod.

12. The motorized wheeled vehicle of claim 9 , wherein said collar is rotationally fixed to said rod.

13. The motorized wheeled vehicle of claim 9 , wherein said lever is positioned on a first side of said collar and said belt is mounted to a second side of said collar.

14. The motorized wheeled vehicle of claim 9 , wherein said collar includes an opening, wherein at least a portion of said cam surface penetrates through said opening.

15. The motorized wheeled vehicle of claim 9 , wherein said collar is a two piece assembly.

16. The motorized wheeled vehicle of claim 15 , wherein said collar assembles via a snap fit.

17. A method of securing a golf bag to a golf cart comprising:

supporting a golf bag on a platform;

slidably connecting a collar to a support member having a substantially flat exterior surface extending substantially transverse to said platform;

translating said collar along said support member to a desired location at any position on the support member;

locking said collar with a friction engagement of the flat exterior surface at the desired location with a cam lever; and

tightening a belt extending from the slidable collar about said golf bag.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the slidably connecting includes a snap fit connection.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein the snap fit connection includes a forward connector with at least one pair of opposing flexible legs.

20. The method of claim 18 , wherein the snap fit connection includes an aft connector with a tongue and groove connection.

21. The method of claim 17 , wherein the desired location includes a height corresponding to a location on the golf bag.
