Got this today, probably too big, probably a bit heavy, even had to buy the tour bag kit from Clicgear, but when it cost less than a dozen NXT's brand new (thanks to the other half working for Titleist and going to a staff sale) who cares. So before you judge someone on which bag they carry (or push), just consider that they may have a very good reason for it and if they haven't, it still doesn't matter! PS, weekend hacker and if my choice of bag annoys you, says more about you than it does me.

Looks pretty cool but back in the day Titleist staff bags really rocked. I had a big 11 inch bad boy, red and white shiny imitation leather. Most bad a** bag I've ever seen, besides Al Cerviks custom job of course.

It effing cracks me up that people have "opinions" about what I carry my clubs in. As long as it doesn't impact the speed at which I play, why in the world could it possibly matter? Btw - I rock the Titleist Japan CB 422 [url="http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/golfking/item/ti-cb-cb422/?s-id=borderless_recommend_item_en"]http://global.rakute...commend_item_en[/url] in Oakland A's green and gold....

Question, How was dealing with Rakuten, they have a Nike staff bag that I really want........

[Nic1972]

I would like to buy a staff bag, unfortunately they are way too expensive for me. They look cool, they have plenty of pockets and space for the clubs. Who cares what other would think.

I refuse to display a "billboard" that the manufacturer is not paying me for. In fact [u]they[/u] charge [u]you[/u] to carry their billboard. How do I get in that business?!

I do like the idea of a roomy vinyl bag that has no advertising on them. I also like hats with no golf logos on them.

Im not sure if it qualifies but I rock this beauty my wife bought for me: Titleist Mid-Size

 

That's a really sweet setup. What kind of push cart is that?

Thanks! Its just a Black Clicgear 3.0.

The Titleist Mid-size staff bag isn't the most practical or best functioning bag to use with the Clicgear, but it sure looks great. Heres another PIC:

they are fine as long as you leave your name off....

[OneBowTie]

If your going to judge someone for the bag they have....whats next.....if somebody dresses with really nice high end golf clothes, are they poser's?
What if somebody has a really nice set of wedges and they are a 22 handicap, are they poser's?

I suppose if your gonna judge....why stop at the bag.....if somebody is wearing a nice expensive pair of golf shoes, they had better be able to shoot par.

I don't get it....who really cares what golf bag ANYBODY is using....if it bothers you, don't look or don't buy one for yourself.

By the tone of some on this thread, unless your a pro or a scratch golfer- you shouldn't game anything that resembles what a "good" player uses....so no more logo'd hats, shirts, rain gear, and only use those cheap golf gloves.

Get real.... why would anything anyone else games bother anybody....only the little people judge like a boss!!!!

I was just thinking about this, they are just unnecessary imo. They're really big and super heavy. They look cool but theres a point where functionality beats fashion. Why do you guys that use staff bags use them?

[KYMAR]

Hey, Yeah! Explain yourselves Dammit

[cardoustie]

They look cool in the man cave holding spare WMD's

I want to hear from these knuckleheads

[double or triple?]

I prefer to have everything in my bag and not have to worry about changing out what I have in it when I play in certain weather or locations. I store my rain gear, towels, snacks, and shoes(when at home) in my staff bag when I had one. I'm actually looking to pick one up again as I've been without one for about 1 year. Probably go the mini staffer or 9.5" bag over the full staffer or 10.5" bag.

[Sean2]

Maybe they like them?

Amazing the lengths some will go to carry their golf clubs.....

[Mr.Mizzy]

Besides lowering my handicap a couple strokes, I like the way it looks and it holds a lot of stuff.

[joey2aces]

To each their own. I mean, there's some people who are self-proclaimed "masters" but, hey, we all have our idiosyncrasies.

[jclark3]

I guess I might have one if I never planned on walking anywhere with my bag ever.

[KYMAR]

Also, to guys with green grips. What the hell are you people doing? I really don't like that and you should just knock it off.

It's not easy being green

[Bonhomme Richard]

When I caddied in high school id say about 70% of people had big leather staff bags. Kids these days don't know how good they got it.

[CHARGERS]

When playing in tournaments it's much easier to store all your rain gear and a couple extra towels and my grips seem to stay dry longer in a staff bag than a carry bag that gets soaked thru easily. But, My biggest " pro " is the fact it's so much easier to get your clubs in and out of the bag.

[grant_the_tank]

Get off my lawn!

[gutlas5]

it holds the most extra golf clubs. and it looks really cool.

[sheezymaneezy]

Why do people even care?

first of all who are you to judge what people use to play golf ?? staff bags have more room , they are more durable , they look good . but for me it's the club room , if you have woods and or hybrids with headcovers at times a regular bag is just to small .......i use a motorized cart / kangaroo and the bag fits good and is very functional ...

I am not sure why i am explaining my choice of a bag to you because basicly it's really non of your business what i use and you have no right to call people out or judge them over a bag .. and i am surprised this thread lasted this long aas there is a multiple page thread on the use of a staff bag

Note to self...never ask old golfer about his staff bag.... (

Why do people use coloured balls?

Why do people wear visors instead of caps?

Why do people use a hybrid instead of a long iron?
