Looking to get one as I'm a member of a 9 hole par 3 which is in solid cycle distance, so be'd nice to cycle with a new light bag instead of the £2 petrol every time I go.

Have it cut down to these two at the moment, but only one of them shows up on Amazon, where I have a gift card(the Callaway), so was gonna go with that, but it seems far bigger, not sure if they are just two bad pictures or something.

Anyone have any other recommendations? I'd only be taking the 9 and upwards really. Occasionally a few more to go on the range.
 
I have the same red Titleist bag and they are ALL the same as eachother. I used it a couple of times but the fact ive got forged clubs and they clatter in the bag and mark so easy has made me buy a Mizuno micro stand bag instead which has a 4 way divider and comfortably carries 10 clubs and weighs next to nothing. They are good for the money but if you are meticulous about your equipment like i am then i wouldnt bother.

Although i do have one for sale ;)
 
Not sure I would fancy cycling with a golf bag on my back. I had the Titleist one and, although good, I did find it easy for clubs to slide out when you were walking along unless you held onto them. With only a few clubs in the bag this could be more of a problem, and on a bike......
 
Use a sun mountain one with a double strap, usually have 7 or 8 clubs in it and no problems with them falling out, clubs do chatter a bit but personally am not anal about the odd mark on the back of my irons so doesnt worry me overly

BTW previously had a callaway one but sent 2 of them back where the rod in the back of the bag broke through the strap - they were replaced/refunded but poor quality imo

The Mizuno seems pretty good.

I've seen a (Wilson) pencil bag that has a 1/3rd length stand and the bottom of the bag is moulded plastic. Great idea as it keeps the bag dry.
 
This is the microbag. Comes with a hood to keep your clubs in when your on your bike :thup:

it's not THAT bad tbf, i tried it once with my nike performance bag, and i didn't feel any effects walking round, the shortness of the course and the fact that both I and the course/range is right next to the cycle path helps alot I'd assume, though I sometimes walk it anyway.

the titleist is now in stock on amazon at £35 free delivery, so might just get that now after seeing the horror stories about the callaway one above. cheers guys.

PM Bomber, he's giving one away for free apparently!!!!


:whistle:
 
I used to have the Titleist but picking it up off the floor becomes a bit of a pain after a while.
I've bought something similar to the Mizuno micro and for me it's much better and a similar size.
 
I have a very small Mizuno bag, takes about 9 clubs, has a stand, double strap and decent pockets. Bought it at Direct Golf for peanuts, don't know the name of it.
