We would like to introduce you to a golf bag that is perfect for those who play executive courses, par-3's, and even for golfers who want to walk but don't want to carry the extra weight around.
The Sunday Golf Bag introduces a lightweight option to carry your clubs; it was introduced to Golf for Beginners in a guest post entitled, "5 of The Best Golf Wedges For Beginners". We wanted to learn more about the Sunday Golf Bag so we asked for a sample to test and, in this article, we share our unbiased opinion with you.
Where the Sunday Bag weighs in at about 1.5 pounds (empty), the average "light" stand bag can tip the scales at about three or more pounds. Add fourteen golf clubs to your bag, along with a host of other accessories, and you have one heavy bag to lug along! If you already have shoulder and back pain, this might be one reason for the dreaded "backpack hunch".
Although the maximum number of golf clubs you can have in your bag during regulation play is fourteen, a Golfweek article states, "Some golfers find that they can carry fewer clubs, nine or 10, and score just as well."
Golfdigest says that beginners need even fewer golf clubs when they are first learning the game.
"Start with a driver, a putter, a sand wedge (it's the club that has an "S" on the sole or a loft of 54 to 56 degrees) and supplement those with a 6-iron, an 8-iron, a pitching wedge, and a fairway wood or hybrid with 18-21 degrees of loft. These are the clubs that are the most forgiving and easiest to get airborne."
The Loma Sunday Golf stand bag can carry up to eight clubs, so it's a good choice for beginners.
Only taking what you need along to the course, and focusing on the golf, is a recipe for a more targeted approach to the game.
Features of the Sunday Golf Bag:
Pros:
- Great looking, well-constructed stand bag.
- Slim, well-made, durable material.
- Nice amount of storage and keeps its shape even when it is loaded up.
- Handle and strap hooks up for lefties or righties.
- Insulated "frosty" pocket.
- Velcro glove holder.
- The Sunday golf bag seems durable, comfortable to carry, great for driving range practice, par-3's, executive courses, and even regulation courses if you know the course well and know which clubs you can leave it home. Makes for a more comfortable and easy round, especially for people with back or shoulder pain, seniors, and women.
Cons:
I would say that there are no real "cons" so far. The Sunday Golf Bag does exactly what it professes to do, that is, to keep the load light, make it easy and fun to carry the clubs you want, and to take along accessories that you need.
