Golf Bags – How To Determine What Bag Is Right For You
A high quality golf bag is an invaluable investment for the regular golfer. This is especially true if you enjoying walking the course and prefer not to use a cart. Besides, it is highly recommended to walk as often as possible when playing golf. And during your game, you want a golf bag that will be comfortable, yet durable.
Tour Bags
When shopping for a quality golf bag, there are several sizes for you to choose from. If you have ever watched a professional golf game on TV or in person, you will notice that the pros typically use giant leather tour bags. They are waterproof and equipped with large pockets that are able toc arry most anything a caddie may need during the game.
Needless to say, these bags are extremely heavy, some weighing over 50 pounds. Luckily for these players, they pay someone to carry their golf bags for them. Many Caddies get paid very well, with some even earning a percentage of their player's tournament wins.
Cart Bags
The average golfer like yourself will probably never need a 50 pound tour bag just to carry your clubs around the golf course on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. So the next size down that is more ideal for normal, everyday players is called a cart bag.
Cart bags are typically made of leather and nylon. They are also made to fit on a golf cart. On the other hand, cart bags are still a bit bulky and are best suited if you plan on driving the golf cart around all day. Personally, my favorite is the carry bag, as described below.
Carry Bags
Although cart bags are ideal, an even better solution for recreational
golfers are called carry bags. These golf bags are much smaller and weigh far less than a full-size bag such as the tour bag and cart bag. You will find that cart bags are able to carry all of your clubs, a few accessories, and of course your golf balls. However, there is little room for anything else.
Carry bags are available in a wide range of sizes, designs, and price. For children you can find these bags in smaller ¾ sizes. For adults who would like a little “extra”, you can pick up a deluxe model carry bag that has more pockets and a backpack strap which enables you to hold onto your bag using both shoulders – quite comfortable.
As far as prices are concerned, with carry bags, you get what you pay for --like any product for that matter. Low-quality bags can sell for $40-$50, however, cart bags in this price range do not have the most aesthetic appeal and are not very comfortable. Cheap carry bags such as this are fine if you only plan on playing golf once or twice per year. It would be a better choice to invest at least $100 into a high-quality carry bag.
