Golf bags today offer a much larger selection of styles than they have in the past. Styles include Trolley, Carry and Pencil cases for your clubs. Whatever model suits your playing habits, it will of course need to be functional for you. The type that you decide on will be influenced greatly by what you prefer. The various styles have their own good points to them.

A Trolley bag is basically a bag that is on wheels which will allow you to push or pull it to where you need to be. It carries a full set of clubs and has extra pockets for gloves, tees, drying cloths and other things of that nature.

A carry bag is one that is carried on ones back. Like the Trolley is has extra pockets where things can be stored. However it is important to remember that you must be able to support the weight of this bag. Today many of these are used as storage cases for the clubs rather than being carried around the course.

The Pencil style is a smaller bag that carries only about half of a standard set of clubs. Carried in a sling much like a backpack it is very lightweight and convenient to cart around for a quick game in between appointments. It can be useful to carry with you in case a game opportunity comes up without warning as well.

When you are shopping for a product of this type you need to keep in mind that while the bag itself may be lightweight, when you add your clubs and any supplies you might need to carry with you, it may become too heavy.

If you have back problems, you will likely want to consider the Trolley which only needs to be picked up when you move it to and from your vehicle. If your normal round is only a short one or you only use half of your clubs you could consider the Pencil model. The Carry model is still used today however it is usually used when you hire someone to carry your clubs for you.
