Staff Bags
A golf club staff bag is rarely carried by the average golfer, but happily placed on the golf cart. The more adventurous walkers usually use a Carry Golf Bag. However, if a “hold absolutely everything” golf bag is needed, staff bags do fit nicely on the average golf cart.
Where do you get a Golf Club Staff Bag?
All the major brands certainly have them in their online stores or at your friendly pro shop. Favorite choices are those from Callaway, Cleveland, Cobra, Ping, Taylor Made, Titleist and Wilson. Wilson is now offering Golf Bags made in China at, we understand, very competitive prices. Staff bags are also made by well known golf bag manufactures like Mizuno and Ogio.
You can also have a custom staff bag made with your name, company logo or some other significant decoration.
There are three main types of golf bags: staff bags, cart bags and carry bags.
The names of the last two are pretty self-explanatory, as they are designed for either strapping onto a golf cart or for slinging over your shoulder and carrying yourself. You’re probably going to want one of these two types of bags. Staff bags are the mammoth bags you see caddies lugging around for tour players on TV. They are essentially walking billboards, and are nearly as heavy if you fill them up with extra clothes, balls and other gear. Don’t bother with a staff bag unless you have someone to carry it for you.
Cart bags are smaller and sleeker than staff bags, sized to fit snugly on the back of a golf cart. They have plenty of pockets for stashing stuff, but aren’t as garish as staff bags. They’re also light enough (usually 8-10 pounds) that you could carry one for 18 holes if you had to. If you know that you’re usually going to ride a cart when you play, then this is not a bad way to go.
Custom golf bags can range from a bag with your name on it, to a full blown staff bag like the pros have. These bags are for the golfer looking to have every bell and whistle possible…and to get noticed on the course! Don’t you ever notice when you see one on the course or in a cart? When you do, isn’t the first thing you want to know is…
