There are many types of golf bags on the market today. When it comes to choosing a golf bag your decisions should be purely based on looks and the specifications you want your bag to have. When choosing you bag you also need o consider that it’s not just your golf clubs that you are carrying around the golf course, you have numerous other things like rain wear, gloves, balls, towels, drinks etc.

The most popular types of golf bags are:

Stand bags are built to be carried on the shoulder (or both shoulders to evenly distribute the weight of your golf clubs) and comes with a foldaway stand so golfers can leave bags standing whilst they play their shots. Golfers who use a stand bag have every reason to feel self-righteous. Not only, are the making the 4-5 mile walk, that a typical round of golf involves ,but, carrying your stand bag means that you are giving your body a more thorough workout. Golf stand bags easily hold a full set of clubs, are available from all the top names in golf manufacturing, such as, Cobra, Mizuno, Callaway, Titleist, TaylorMade,  and Mizuno,  etc and come in a huge selection of colours.

The other most popular type of golf bag is the cart bags. They are designed to be set onto a trolley, so there is no extra burden to the body during your round of golf. Golf cart bags are much heavier than stand bags, but, because you are not carrying them, but are wheeling them about it is much less of a strain on your back and shoulders. Golf clubs are incredibly heavy and on a, typical, round of 4.5 miles you may feel justified in using a golf cart bag as you will already be getting quite a bit of exercise already.

Other types of golf bags include tour bags and pencil bags. Your own personality will come into play when choosing the colour and detail of the bag. Keep an eye on quality and price, but especially on getting the right bag that will work for you.
