How to choose a golf bag
There are several key factors to consider when thinking about buying a golf bag and we have gone into those below...
Bag Type
Put simply what kind of bag do you want? Do you want a stand bag? Or a cart model? Both of these types of bag have their positives and negatives and you should think about what you think is important to your golf.
Stand bags are built for those who want to carry their clubs around the golf course which means factors like comfort and weight are very important. Stand bags also have to offer waterproofing as well as strength and robustness. The two negatives most associated with stand bags are they require more effort to use, and they usually don't offer as much storage as cart bags. However, that being said there are several stand bags above that can also be used on golf carts as well so maybe that is a way of killing two birds with one stone.
Cart bags are for those who want to use golf carts on the golf course. If this is you, then you'll likely want a stable model that is not only easy to lift and move around, but also one that sits firmly on your cart. One big advantage we have found is that cart bags also tend to offer ample storage for accessories, apparel, valuables and all the other golf paraphernalia you might need during the round. The main negative is they are just bulkier and have to be taken off the cart before and after the round, whereas stand bags offer a bit more freedom.
Storage
Storage is important in golf these days because a good golf bag has to offer pockets for lots of different things as we mentioned above. Cart bags tend to have larger pockets because they are just that, larger. They also require less effort to use too which means players are able to carry more stuff with them if needed.
Stand bags on the other hand usually have enough to house the essentials. However there are also golf bags out there that keep the game simple with only a few pockets so have a think about how much gear you want to take onto the golf course, and pick a bag accordingly.
Waterproofing
If you live or golf somewhere that gets a lot of rain then this is a no-brainer really, get a bag that offers protection from the rain. Whereas if you don't, then this factor won't be as important. We should acknowledge that some models above are better than others in this regard because they have been designed as such.
Weight
Across all types of bag, weight is important. Stand bags obviously have to be lightweight because players will be carrying them on their backs and shoulders all day, whilst cart bags should also have a degree of lightness too so they are easy to maneuver on the golf course, and from the car to the cart itself. Thankfully most brands these days make lightweight models across their ranges because not many players want to use a heavy bag.
Looks
How do you want your golf bag to look? Whether it be a stand or cart model, brands try their best to create design aesthetics that stand out, or blend in on the golf course. Therefore have a think about which models you like the look of, or if some bags have different color schemes.
Budget
Our final factor to consider is of course price. There are golf bags at every single price point so if you want to go for a premium cart model you can, or if you want a cheap stand bag you can also do that too. Of course you can often get some of the top models in a deal though as we have shown above.
When is Black Friday?
This year the two shopping events, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, take place roughly a week later than they usually have done in the past. In 2024 the former takes place on November 29th whilst Cyber Monday will take place on the 2nd December this year. As such you have so many opportunities to purchase gifts for Christmas, or for yourself.
Should I buy a new golf bag on Black Friday?
If you are looking to get a new golf bag as Black Friday approaches this year, we would advise you to bookmark this page so that you can see the best deals. The newest designs often perform the best because they have had factors like weight, storage, waterproofing, looks, usability, and so on, improved from previous generations. As such, if you still use an older model, we definitely think you could improve your golf setup with a new golf bag.
On that note, when you find a bag you like, in a color you like, we would recommend acting fast. Whilst bags rarely run out of stock, certain colorways may become very difficult to find and certain types of golf bags like waterproof ones will be more popular over the winter months. Therefore the best deals often go rather quickly but don't fret though as we have seen loads of bags go on offer in years gone by, and the best picks will be in this post for you. If you need or want a new golf bag, this is the time of year to strike with Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Christmas all offering good opportunities for deals.
Where to get the best deals
In the US, some of the best golf retailers include PGA Tour Superstore, Rock Bottom Golf, Walmart and, of course, Amazon. In the UK, the best golf retailers include Scottsdale Golf, American Golf, Sports Direct, Click Golf and Amazon.
Amazon can be tricky to navigate (check out our best Amazon Black Friday golf deals) but they're a fantastic retailer for golf watches, lasers and balls in particular. Other retailers to keep an eye on are the brands themselves so Nike, adidas , Puma and Under Armour.
