IMO it is actually better than the ones made for disc golf in some ways- ground clearance being the first. Nowhere to sit on it though.
My top two tips for modding them for a bag:
1) Flip the "arms" that hold the upper bag to opposite sides. This way they bend out instead of in. This gives you a wider top support. You can even just hang a backpack from them and call it done if you like.
Maybe I wish the "Cart Pictures/Ideas" sticky was more active.
I use clamps to hold my bag up higher on a ClicGear. I have back/hip issues and needed to stop bending over to get discs and swinging a bag over one shoulder.
I took this rig through several mountain CO courses.
Looks very similar to the rig a few of my buddies use. I use a 2 wheeled version. Cost me $24.99 used at PIAS. IMO it is actually better than the ones made for disc golf in some ways- ground clearance being the first. Nowhere to sit on it though.
I actually thought about mounting my bag higher, like what you did. I was worried about it being less stable with the weight up that high. Sounds like my concerns were unfounded. Maybe I'll give it a shot.
Rovic/ClicGear makes this seat....only issue is compatibility. I'm not sure if it would work with your ball golf cart or not.

I am not sure about cross compatibility, but ball golf ClicGear carts have a full inventory of attachments, including a seat that looks like the Rovic seat.
I'm thinking about going to a push cart, but I have a concern. Width. My home course has a footbridge over a river and half of the course is on either side of the river. The bridge isn't terribly wide. I have a Zuca AT style cart with saddle bags and it's probably about 80% of the width of the bridge.
So my question is how wide are push carts like the Rovic or Bag Boy Quad? (or similar carts) And how hard is it to get these up and down a dozen steps?
