For Golf Bags what is generally used and best? A Cart bag or a bag with a stand?

Posted on March 4th, 2010 by admin


It depends.

If you’re going to walk and/or travel, then the weight of a carry bag (with stand) is probably the better option.

If you’re going to ride in a cart, then the cart bag is a better option.

I have both; I use my carry bag most of the time, but will use my cart bag when I know I’m going to be riding for a length of time.

    you can use the bag with stand for double duty. i have one bag and it works fine for walking or riding.

    Both good answers. When in doubt, I’d say go for the stand bag for three reasons:

    1) usually cheaper;
    2) lighter;
    3) can be strapped to a cart just as well as a cart bag.

    This may sound like I’m being an a$$, but if you’re walking, it’s best to use a stand bag. If you’re riding in a cart, it’s best to use a cart bag. I have both for both occasions.

    if your goingto be riding a cart bag is better. but if your going to be walking then i would most definitely go with a stand bag

    A cart bag on a trolly everytime, (if you cant get a buggy!)
    a lighter bag with a stand for when you cant take buggys or trollys onto the course during some winter months in the uk!

    Or else just turn pro, get a caddy, then you wont care and the thought wont enter your head again fella!!
