Thanks for the kind words!! I have tried using the faux leather before and find it to be more difficult to work with than plain ol veg-tanned leather. The cutting and stretching takes some practice to get the hang of. No matter how many things I cover with leather I always have a moment where I feel all is lost because I either cut too much or not enough. Just be diligent in your measurements and calculations and try to keep optimistic. I would love to see some pics of that seat if you got time to post them.
I will definitely look for some golf bags...that never occurred to me but it does seem like an excellent source of leather and hardware. I always look for people throwing away leather couches. The back usually faces a wall in the house so it is almost always free of wear and tear. Plus it is a huge section that you can just cut out, roll up, and drive off with.
