AI picks by need
What the AI looks for in Golf Club Cart Bags
- Forward-facing pockets
- Main pockets should sit on the side facing away from the cart's strap, so they open while mounted. The most common cart-bag frustration is pockets blocked by the cart or the strap.
- Top
- 14-way full-length dividers, with a putter well large enough for oversized grips. On a cart there is no weight penalty, so full organization is worth having.
- Base and strap channel
- Look for a non-slip molded base and a strap pass-through near the top. These stop the bag twisting or sliding on a push cart or riding cart.
- Handle and lift points
- The bag should have a sturdy top handle plus a lower lift handle. Cart bags are heavy and get lifted in and out of car trunks.
Brands that matter
- Sun Mountain: Its C-130 is a reference cart bag.
- Ping: Makes the DLX and Traverse cart bags.
- Titleist: Makes cart bags that come in StaDry waterproof versions.
What to avoid
- Cart bags with rear-facing pockets that sit against the cart.
- Very large staff-style bags if your trunk is small.
