Golf Bags - A Look At The Different Types And Styles

[Maxine Donnell]

There must be thousands of types, styles, colors, makes and models of
the simple golf bag. They are made by the well known giants like Nike,
Callaway, Ping, Titleist, Wilson, Cleveland, Taylor Made and the
specialty golf bag companies like Ogio, Sixron, Mizuno, Sun Mountain,
Benetti, Datrek and more. And all you wanted to do was find someplace
to put your clubs.
But, before looking at the many golf bag manufacturers, take a moment
to decide what golf bag best fits the way you play golf.
If you are a walker and enjoy strolling your favorite golf course,
consider a Carry Bag. They are lightweight and most often made of
plastic, nylon or even canvas. They can handle your basic golf clubs
and your balls, tees and a towel. They often come with a stand that
keeps your clubs upright when you are making a shot. Golf Carry bags
were introduced in the early 1980s when Sun Mountain introduced the
first bag with legs that automatically extended when it was set down
on the ground.
These days, the cart bag is probably the most popular golf bag. A bit
too bulky to carry, it fits nicely on a hand pushed cart frame or the
back of a golf cart. The cart golf bag is large enough to hold all
your clubs, shoes, towels and all the other accessories that are so
helpful out on the golf course. They can be carried in a pinch, but a
strong back is a definite requisite.
The third option is called a staff bag. These are carried by the
professionals and people who want to have every imaginable club (up to
the allowable 14 club limit) and anything else the golfer might want
to carry on his or her round. We are usually in caddy territory here.
These days many golfers take their clubs on golf vacations and
sometimes even on business trips. The golf travel bag has fast become
another popular golf bag option. The soft bag is good when traveling
by car. It is usually lighter and more compact. The carry bag is a
good option here.
However when an airplane is part of the itinerary, a hard golf travel
bag is a must. The hard shell case bag protects your clubs from being
damaged. But they fit nicely on your golf cart when you arrive. These
golf bags are considered luggage and not recommended when walking the
golf course. However, they are an absolute must when packing your
clubs for the airport. Nothing can ruin a golfing vacation more than a
broken or bent set of golf clubs.
Golf bags also come in different shapes and sizes with these
categories. Ladies and junior golfers certainty have different weight
and size requirements than the men.
One can also easily find discount and used golf bags online or at your
local pro shop.
The absolute best place to shop for golf bags is online. With a few
mouse strokes you can visit many different Internet stores, do your
research and find the bag that absolutely meets your unique golf bag
criteria and even color. You can also find used golf bags on sites
like E-bay and there are always special sales and ever present
discount offers. In some cases, they can be downright cheap. The avid
golfer can even find individual customized golf bags. It's all online.
For many golfers, one bag isn't enough. Many enthusiastic golfers own
two or three so they will have the perfect bag for the perfect round.
