Golf Staff Bags

The Golf Staff Tour Bag is the largest selection of golf bags which is available, they are much larger that the travel/carry bag or the Golf Cart Bag. You see the professional golfers on TV use these golf staff tour bags. However, they do not personally carry them due to their weight. They travel with caddies to help them instead. The amount of equipment that these golfers can carry is as much as they would like and an average PGA Tour Bag is 40-45 lbs with all the equipment in it. The price for the staff tour bags is substantially higher than that of the cart golf bag or the travel/carry bag. A Golf tour bag i came accross lately which i really like is the Fourteen Golf Tour Staff Bag Description of the bag is as follows: This Fourteen Golf Tour Staff Bag is a full size tour bag with an oversize belly, ball pockets, rain hood and full umbrella sheath.Features:*Full Tour size Model *Pro-type, 3-point shoulder strap *6-partition opening for smooth club access *Full separators to keep clubs from tangling *A fully-open front pocketColor Options: White and Orange

Golf Stand Carry Bag

Can be used on the back of a golf cart as well as carried by the player during the round.A Golf stand carry bag is typically about 4 pounds in weight prior to adding your golf equipment. Depending on the golf you usually play, any one of these styles can suit your needs, A very good golf stand carry bag is the OGIO - Ozone Stand Bag - 2008 Some of its features are * 9" WoodeLite top* 8 pockets (6 zippered) * Glove/putter cover velcro strip * Pen sleeve and a walking-accessible water bottle holster, the Crossbow Lite shoulder strap system.


In determining the kind of golf bag will best suit you and the type of golf that you play, you need to first decide if you walk or ride most of your rounds of golf. If you walk the majority of your rounds, you will need a golf stand carry bag. You may choose to also have a golf cart bag for trips or special occasions. In addition, you will need to think about your typical golf club and how your golf clubs are normally transported about the club. Do you have to personally carry them quite a bit or is the staff able to assist you with your bag? I think that you get the drift, the more that you carry your own clubs the more you need a golf stand carry bag. The Callaway Warbird X Stand Bag is also a brilliant bag and has some great features such as features the XTT Fang Base, which makes the bag lighter — it clocks in at a mere six pounds. The Warbird X Stand Bag also features a durable 3-stay frame construction, seven full-length compartments and a plethora of storage options. Features: 9.5" 7-way oval top Seven full-length dividers Five zippered pockets, one mesh side pocket and cooler-lined water bottle pocket Adjustable 3-point strap


The golf stand carry bag is a smaller bag designed for those who are prone to walk the golf course or have to transport their own clubs around the club. These lightweight are designed for the players comfort as they are carried by the player. Although these bags are light weight they can hold a full set of golf clubs (fourteen), golf balls,tees, umbrella as well as and a rain suit. So the golf stand carry bag might be worth a thought for a second bag as they are pretty cheap, that is if you mix it by walking some days and a golf cart other days.

Golf Club Cleaning

Tips on Golf Club Cleaning.
The off season is a great time for cleaning your golf clubs, and dont forget your golf bag give it a thourough cleaning also, especially inside the pockets, including any other repairs and maintenance on your equipment. It's also a great time to take inventory of what you have, what you don't have and what you'll probably need to replace for next season.

When it comes to golf club cleaningyou have two basic choices. Have someone else do it for you, say, the pro shop--or, do it yourself. While there are a lot of things I recommend that the pro shop do, cleaning my clubs is something I like to do myself. Not only does make me feel good afterwards--newly cleaned clubs look great--but it also gives me some quiet time to inspect my clubs slowly and closely, which is something I totally overlook during playing season.
If you want to clean your clubs yourself, grab a few things and get to work. You'll need a bucket, some clean clothes, a tooth brush or something similiar, some mild dishwater soap and some elbow grease.

For your irons: Important Tip: Do NOT submerge your club heads into the bucket of water above the ferrules!!!. Make sure you have good head covers for your woods. A very good set of covers are NCAA Set of 3 Headcovers - Various Teams Set of three headcovers constructed of durable nylon features expandable socks that provide maximum shaft protection, three different sizes ensure a proper fit on your clubs and the #1 headcover is designed to fit up to a 460cc driver.


For newer golfers, the ferrules are those black rings where the club meets the shaft.
Okay, here we go. Put some warm water into the bucket, along with a dab of soap. Don't use very hot water. Hot water can loosen your ferrules. Also, you only need enough water to cover the heads of your irons...not the ferrules!
Put your irons, club face down, into the bucket and let them sit for a bit. When you're ready, take one out and using the old toothbrush, give the grooves a nice washing. There is a very good product worth looking at called, Denali Clubtub Portable Club Cleaner

Golf Cart Bags Review

Golf Cart Bags Review
I would like to welcome you to my Golf Cart Bags review site. The appropriate Golf Cart Bag for your style of golf is a prerequisite for an enjoyable game of golf, whether you're on a pro course or just playing for fitness.
Your golf bag is the piece of Golf Equipment that you will use to carry all your Golf Clubs. Golf Balls, Markers, Tees and perhaps other tools like towels or even an umbrella. Golf Cart Bags do not have a direct influence on the outcome of a game of golf but they definitely can have an impact on your overall comfort and level of fatigue as you make your round of golf.

There are two things that determine which of the golf cart bags is best for you: how much gear are you going to carry and are you going to carry the bag yourself or are you going to use a golf cart or a caddy. But if you plan to walk a lot of the way, then you will want to bring a bag that is easy to carry. There are different Types of Golf Cart Bags designed for each type of golfer.

The basic golf cart bags comes in three sizes. The first is a staff golf bag or tour golf bag. Obviously this name comes from the professionals that are on staff with a certain company to promote the company's products, and because of their weight they are designed to be carried on a golf cart and a beautiful tour bag for such purpose is the Callaway Org.14 Tour Cart BagIt weighs 7 pounds without strap and hood. 10¿ 14-way top with 14 full length dividers. Co-molded ergonomic power handle. Single strap. 7 zippered pockets. 2 hidden pockets. 2 water bottle pockets. Umbrella holder and towel ring. Styling inspired from the Tour Authentic Staff bag.It comes in colours of black/orange and black/silver. A bag highly recommended.

The second are the Golf Cart Bags. These bags are typically not quite as large as a staff or tour bag and are meant to be placed on the rear of a golf cart. They are not meant to be carried by the average player during their round of golf, while they are smaller than Tour Bags but they are relatively bulky for a golfer to carry around the Golf Course without the help of a caddy or golf cart.

Golf Cart Bags got their name because they are designed to be used on a Golf Cart.The golf cart bag have pockets and general storage space and make use of lighter materials making them less cumbersome to carry to the golf cart or your pull/push trolly. The pockets are typically designed for easy access as the bag sits on a golf cart/trolly. A very good golf cart bag is the OGIO - Exodus Golf Cart Bag - 2008 Some of the reasons it is so good are it is designed for serious outings, the Exodus is geared up with ¿ not one ¿but two insulated pouches to keep beverages cold (or hot) from the first tee to the last. All foreseeable needs have been met with this latest design: its new Wedge top was created to accommodate popular hybrid clubs; ten pockets include special storage for valuables in a fleece-lined space; and an innovative "Isolation Chamber" buffers wet gear from dry. Looking deeper, the Exodus is laden with endless details including dedicated storage for divot tools, umbrellas, towels, tees, gloves, and of course ¿ cigars. They come in colours: Black/Copper. Navy/Gold. Petrol and Merlot.

You may want to go for an even lighter bag if you want to carry your gear comfortably around the Golf Cours and if so take a look at the Adams Golf 2009 Ultralight Golf Stand Bag it has:
• 7", 5-way top
• 4 pockets
• IZZO dual strap
• Mesh water bottle sleeve
• Interior valuables pouch
• Interior cell phone handle
• Pen sleeve
• Padded lumbar hip support
• Non-slip foot pads
• Integrated trunk handle
• Weight: 3.5 lb
The colours are:Black. Black/Gold. Black/Orange. Black/Red. Black/Silver.



The Right type Golf Cart Bags. Depending how much you play.The golf cart bag is a very important piece of golf equipment. The reasons are simple. Obviously it is very important because it assists you with the storage and transportation of your golf clubs as well as other golf equipment. With the size of a golf cart bag, you can easily carry your clubs, tees, markers as well as other things you will need during your round of golf. The bag itself does not necessarily have a direct correlation to your score however, it can allow you to carry items that could make your round of golf more comfortable and more enjoyable
