Sunday bags

[jomatty]

What are you guys liking for a half set of clubs for walking a few holes in the evening? The Sunday Bag Lamo looks good and not too expensive but I’m worried about fitting 7 clubs in it.  
Anyways, what bags are you guys using for half sets?

[Hammer_Hands]

I've tried a bunch of sunday bags.  Currently using a Belding waxed canvas, but it's pricey.  If you're shopping for a good price, check out the Titleist Carry Bag (non premium version).  I have one and it's good.

I have the Titleist Carry Bag and it has been great. It has a double strap that is comfortable and 2 pouches that hold everything else you need to carry. The bottom side is has some water resistant material for when you set it on the ground. It can also hold 14 clubs if needed, but most of the time I only carry 7 or 8.

It's very simple, but it gets the job done.

I bought one of those Orlimar bags for $35 and it does everything I need.  Holds four irons and a putter without chattering; the putter gets one half and the irons get the other.

It has a rope threaded like shoelaces that hold my water bottle.  I loop the end of the loop to hold my Garmin Approach G10 GPS.  The pocket easily holds ten balls, tees, and the scorecard.

Most of the time I just carry it by the firmly attached handle and don't bother with the strap.  The less time I spend fiddling with the bag the more likely I'm able to find the ball.  Between the lush grass, leaves, and rolling hills I'm quite satisfied to complete a round without losing a ball.  I've done that twice out of 14 rounds.

Ping moon lite - nothing special but neither is my game 

 

Match made in heaven

[PEI_Golfer]

I have a Ping moonlite and it has done the job.  I prefer the ones with dual straps vs. the single sling.  One of the reasons I don't end up with a Jones bag, but oh well.

[BIG STU]

I have what I think was a Golfsmith product called a Tourtrek--- I got it in a bulk buy deal a while back-- I did change the strap to one off of a Nike Bag I found on the scrap pile at work. Had one problem with it the plastic spine was cheap and somehow broke. It has the stops for the spine so I cut down an old graphite shaft and it worked fine. I carried it in the car for years with a 5 club set up when I was able to walk. Now I do have what I think is a Vagabond copy I found at Goodwill for $2. it is the same size as my Jones classic but a lot lighter appears to be made of balistic nylon

Jones Players/Classic/Utility Rover. All are great and can fit 14 if really needed but best for fewer than 12. Also, currently on their only sale of the year

I have an older version of this that's more than 10 years old. It's made literally hundreds of trips to the practice range. It's probably the best bang for the buck value golf purchase I've made.  (I literally don't get how people take full bags to the driving range.)

I just bought a PROSimmon DRK 7" Carry Bag.  Haven't used it yet, but it looks like it will work fine.  It's a little bigger than what one might consider a 'Sunday' bag, but I also have a Champkey Sunday bag that is basically a quiver, and I found it was just too limiting in what I could carry.  With mid-sized grips, I would struggle to remove clubs if I carried any more than 5.  The PROSimmon has larger pockets and much better space for clubs, so if I only want to carry 5, no problem, but if I want to carry 10, that's no problem either.  It's an inexpensive bag, as was the Champkey, so time will tell how well it holds up.  Could be one of those 'you get what you pay for' instances, but perhaps not.

By the way, there is another thread in the 'Golf Style and Accessories' forum discussing whether or not legs are preferred on a Sunday bag.  You might want to check that one out.

[VanTheMan0519]

No first hand experience but I picked up a ping Moonlite from a member here. 
 

I can play 3-5 holes on an extended lunch during the week with 8 clubs or so. 

[erikro]

I have a Mackenzie, Jones and ping moonlite. I like them all. I don’t think you can wrong with any of them.

[Nixhex524]

Had the Moonlite and it was great, but I think the Jones players is the best for a Sunday bag.  That said, I DO have a Rover on the way and one of the things I loved about the Moonlite was the dual straps, but the Jones has a solid bottom which I think will be better than the soft bottom on the Moonlite.  Both can hold a full set with the Moonlite having a 4 way top divider and the Players/Rover having two, but I think having less helps minimize the tangle, thought it should be the opposite.  The Moonlite has a half spine while the Jones has a full... I anticipate this being a real positive for using it full time.  I have had a lot of bags in the past year or two and keep coming back to the Jones bags.

While I haven't golfed with it, I am very impressed with my Titleist Sunday bag. I take it to the range when I only want to hit a few clubs (say driver, 6iron, gap wedge) and roll a few putts.

[miamistomp]

 I like this even better than my Jones bag

[jomatty]

I keep going back-and-forth on whether I want legs or not. I feel like I can probably do. I almost always play first thing in the morning and I have a feeling if I don’t have the legs I’ll end up wet by the third hole…

[jomatty]

Have anyone seen that Sunday bag Lomo in person?  I want to be able to carry at least seven or eight crabs and I’m just not sure if that will do it comfortably

[rondre3000]

Mizuno BR-D2. Pretty much end of discussion if you can still find one. Dual straps for better comfort, can carry 6-8 clubs comfortably, beverage holder netting and even has stand legs so it doesn't get wet on early morning dew sweeper rounds. I've had mine for at least a year and have no complaints.

no complaints

[shot-savior]

I have the Titleist Sunday Bag (non premium).  I used Jones Original and Players for many years previously.  The Titleist balances better for my backward carry.

 

I almost always walk, so the Titleist is my go to bag, and I carry 12 clubs.  The minor snags I experience when "holstering" and "unholstering" a club don't bother me.   

[knackers]

callaway have a cheap one that i use for a quick round https://au.callawaygolf.com/accessories/stand-bags/bags-2020-carry-plus-double-pencil.html

[Nixhex524]

If you want a stand, the Vessel Sunday bag is also a really nice one..

Yes. It looks great but it seems just a bit too small for more than probably 6 clubs. 
 

I have an older Ping “4 Under”. It’s not really a Sunday bag but at about 3.5 pounds with legs I’m not sure 1 pounds savings is going to be that much of a difference maker. Don’t think I like the idea of setting my stuff down in the wet grass all day.

Met one of the Sunday golf guys a couple months back and fyi, they are coming out with a few bigger options in early 2022. The prototypes he showed me were sweet. I am waiting on my next bag purchase for when they become available

Sounds like it would be a very tight fit.

Depends mostly on grip size.  I play mid’s on my clubs and a SuperStroke Mid-slim on my putter.  Seven is tight with that setup, but six is easily doable.  Seven should be fine with regular’s, not sure about eight.  

[jomatty]

Thank you guys for the input on the lomo.  I use midsize grips we’re going to be tight for my needs.  I think I have it narrowed down to the taylor made quiver or the maxfli air (I haven’t heard much about it it was really light and seemed decent when I looked at it at Dick‘s)

[jomatty]

I ended up getting the Maxfli air and so far am happy.  It is really light at 2.5 pounds and has a little bit of storage if I need to take off  a sweatshirt or something.  How durable it is will remain to be seen.  With 7 clubs, 6 balls, a handful of tees and a couple bottles of water it is incredibly light.  I think it would be tight for 14 clubs but would probably handle 12 just fine.

KABOOM BABY!

That’s nice looking.  How much does it weigh and cost?
