Which Kind of Golf Bags Should Newbie Golfer Choose

As a golf beginner, all you need is a set of golf clubs and a golf bag to carry these clubs. Though bag is not as sexy as a new driver, it's a must have on the course.

For beginners, there are two golf bags for their reference: staff bag, cart bag and carry bag.

Staff bags are a little heavier, so for most beginners they aren't the best option. They're heavy and aren't usually meant to be carried on a cart, so unless someone is playing mostly at courses or tournaments where caddies are readily available, a staff bag can be cumbersome.

Cart bags are less heavy, but are still designed with the premise that they won't be carried for long distances. They generally have front-facing pockets for easy access to gear, and are set up to strap securely onto the electric cart, push cart, or pull cart as needed.

Carry bags are lighter and usually have less pockets, because as anyone who has carried their own bag for 18 holes knows, any added weight is unappreciated at the end of the day. There are also bags that are designed to serve in both areas, front-loaded to fit in a cart and light enough to walk with.

It's untrue that a good bag has a dozen pockets, but it needs to have the space for things like sunscreen, hats, and extra golf towels in addition to the obvious like balls and tees. Ready access is also key; beginners should make sure that their bags make it easy to get new balls and tees as needed. Convenience is most important.
