Golf Bags and Carts

Your choice of golf bag can have a dramatic effect on both your physical health and enjoyment of the game. Utilizing a cart can alleviate strain associated with carrying heavy bags, helping prevent potential injuries while prolonging playback time.

Cart bags are specially-designed to sit atop of golf carts, usually featuring additional pockets for shoes, accessories and other essentials. Some cart bags also contain 14-way dividers to help organize clubs more efficiently.

Staff Bags

Staff bags are large, robust golf bags used by professional players during games to carry clubs, equipment and personal belongings. Featuring their sponsor’s logo to help stand out on the course, staff bags may help to differentiate players and are typically heavy compared with cart spaces available to carry them. However, staff bags’ size and weight limitations make them cumbersome to use in your cart’s storage compartments.

Cart or trolley bags have been specifically designed to sit on push and pull carts and electric carts, offering less weight but larger storage capabilities such as pockets and 14 way club dividers for additional pockets and premium feel materials that withstand wear-and-tear.

Stand (carry) bags are ideal for players who prefer walking the course over riding in a cart. These lightweight, compact bags feature comfortable backpack-style shoulder straps with double shoulder pads for carrying. In addition, there is also a padded back section and cart pass through strap that allow it to be used on either push/pull or electric carts.

Cart Bags

These bags are specifically designed to be used with golf carts and tend to be slightly heavier and larger than stand or carry bags, due to being designed to store more equipment such as balls, apparel and accessories – and often feature more pockets so you can store everything necessary while playing golf.

The best golf cart bag designs include a non-slip base to prevent it from shifting while riding in your cart, and provide pass-through for cart straps so they won’t block any pockets. Many also come equipped with special pockets designed specifically to store electronics or valuables as well as full-length dividers to organize club selection.

Most cart bags include a separate water bottle compartment. Furthermore, many have easily accessible top pockets designed to house your tees and balls as well as provide space for your putter – usually equipped with Velcro pads to protect its shaft.

Stand Bags

The top stand bags provide ample pockets for apparel, balls and accessories, including extras like water bottles or umbrella straps. Some even provide easily accessible cooler pockets or can store rangefinders.

Stand bags typically have legs that pop out of their base when deployed, eliminating cumbersome feet that protrude from cart bags and tend to break off or get caked with dirt. This also protects them from getting caked in dirt when transported via public transit or bicycle.

Some of the top stand bags offer dual shoulder straps and padded hip pads to provide comfortable weight distribution. Carrying an unnecessarily heavy golf carry bag may diminish your enjoyment of the game as well as increase shoulder and back pain, especially as additional items add pounds quickly – it is best to keep your bag free of anything unnecessary that might add unnecessary pounds.

Accessories

Golf requires at the minimum, clubs, balls, tees and appropriate attire; however, there are numerous accessories which can enhance a player’s experience on the course and take their game to new levels.

Golf bag rain covers are essential accessories for any serious golfer. By protecting a bag’s contents against rain and keeping them in perfect condition throughout their round, they keep everything at its peak performance level and maintain optimal condition throughout.

Golf ball retrievers are an affordable, useful golf bag accessory designed to retrieve golf balls from water hazards or ditches/ravines on the course. Retrieving these golf balls saves golfers money from purchasing new ones while keeping pockets tidy. A beer sleeve cooler should also be considered essential equipment on any course; its sleek, inconspicuous design won’t draw attention away from your game while being durable enough for years of use while helping reduce plastic waste!
