The premium price tag makes it a sizeable investment

The Titleist S5 StaDry Stand Bag is part of a stylish, robust and reliable range of golf bags and we think this stands out as one the best golf stand bags that money can buy. It boasts the classic, timeless silhouette I have come to expect from Titleist. Our favorite colorway was the black and red option which we had for testing but there are three other color options if you want to switch things up a bit.

It features a new polyester material which feels robust and in my testing it was resistant to abrasion, tears and UV exposure as well. Continuing on this thread, it is the sheer functionality of this bag that elevates it. There are 10 pockets without the bag feeling or looking bulky, which is very impressive. Also the brand-new 5-way top cuff with a full-length divider really helped reduce club entanglement and made retrieving and replacing clubs feel effortless.

It is also completely waterproof thanks to the seam-sealed construction, and there was an abundance of comfort thanks to the double strap system and integrated hip pad.

As if this bag wasn’t already impressive enough, the redesigned stand system for the new line offered a reliable leg deployment and wide stance when sat down, providing rock-solid stability.

Small improvements to the front pocket zips could be made

The Players S4 StaDry Stand Bag is a stylish, classic-looking offering that really strikes the right chord with us, and it looks great in the nine different colors it comes in. It is classic Titleist really, nailing the aesthetics in my opinion.

The other star of the show here is the stand system which is such a high quality and offers top stability. The moment you set your bag down on the fairway, the legs kick out effortlessly. The legs are sturdy and the bag sits at a lovely height once they are in place. Additionally i should note the comfort, the padding around the hips and shoulders make it a pleasant walking carry bag.

Storage wise the pocket options are excellent, eight in total which is a sufficient amount for anything you realistically need to carry. Finally it is also waterproof and overall it is a great bag. It isn't perfect, the $340 price tag means it is one of the most expensive golf bags on the market, but I can tell after testing that this bag will last you many years to come.

Quality of materials doesn't match the RRP

The Players 4 stand bag is an incredibly lightweight and practical option that will be very popular with players this year. It will particularly popular with golfers, like myself, who like to walk and carry their bag on their back thanks to the comfortable padded straps and extra padding around the hip area. This bag also only weighs 1.4kg and is big enough to hold 14 clubs and the accessories you need, making it one of the best lightweight golf bag options out there.

Storage-wise, this bag has everything you'd expect from a lightweight stand bag. A large ball pocket is complimented with a tees pocket just above that is a useful place to put your rangefinder or GPS device. I did miss having a quick access magnetic rangefinder pocket like you get on the Ping Hoofer or Vessel Sunday III bag but presumably this has not been done for weight-related reasons.

Unfortunately, throughout testing I couldn't stop thinking about the price tag with this bag. At £230/$300, no magnetic pockets, few touches of individuality and the materials not being fully waterproof makes this a little bit of a disappointment in terms of value for money. Similar lightweight bags include the Ping Moonlander, which comes in under £150, the Big Max Aqua 7, which has an RRP of £160, and the TaylorMade FlexTech SuperLite at £180, for example. All that being said, this remains a very good lightweight golf bag and if that is what you're after or simply you're a lover of all things Titleist, this bag is worth a test run at least.

Best hybrid

Slightly heavier than other models

It can be difficult to find the balance between a lightweight and spacious golf bag.
Titleist Hybrid 14 stand bag finds that balance pretty well...

As a hybrid bag - one that looks to combine lightweight ease of carry with spacious pockets for carrying course luggage, this bag performs really well both on your back and on a trolley. The 14-way divider caught our eye in testing, as did the space in the main double pockets for any waterproofs or other clothing items you need to bring with you on the course. There's plenty of storage, with nine pockets in total around the bag.

This is a bag that favors space over weight considering it comes in around 6lbs or 2.8kg, but we're happy to say there's more than enough pockets for the user - even the crammer who brings half of another wardrobe out on the course with them. The pockets are both well-sized and well-positioned throughout the bag for extra user-friendliness.

The added weight is also aided by the high quality double strap system which did well to absorb less moisture when we tested them in the rain.

Best pencil

Comfortable with well constructed shoulder straps

Reasons to avoid

Some will prefer a bag with longer legs and more rigidity in the spine
-
Not fully waterproof

At just 1kg, the Titleist Premium Carry Bag is certainly a contender for the best lightweight golf bags. It's just perfect for a quick summer round or nine holes in the evening.

We found hitting the fairways with a pencil bag like this feels great. There comes a sense of freedom with a bag this light, it almost feels old-fashioned to simply set it on the ground beside your ball and swing away before effortlessly throwing it back over your shoulder as you make your way to the green. If you're worried about the bag getting muddy or wet, don't worry, because the mini-stand legs help prevent this.

In terms of kit and technology, this bag lags way behind others on this list, but that's not what pencil bags are made for. They're made for lightweight simplicity and flexibility. Even if you wanted a backup golf bag, say for the winter, this is an awesome option.

Best travel bag

Some may prefer more wheels

If there's one place NOT to cut corners on when buying golf equipment, it's with a travel bag. Travelling abroad with clubs can be a nerve-wracking experience, especially when you've spent your hard-earned cash on your clubs. Investing in the best golf luggage possible to relieve some of this stress.

We were impressed with the protection and quality the Players Travel Cover offered during our testing. The main compartment is 51" x 15" x 18.5" and housed the golf bag perfectly with plenty of room for the best golf accessories. For added security, the bag comes with a handy strap on the inside that'll hold your clubs in place. You could definitely fit one of the best golf cart bags inside too.

Skate wheels provide a smooth pulling experience through the airport, whilst the handles are easy to hold and pull which transporting this bag around a breeze. Only one colorway may disappoint some potential buyers, but should you care about the color of a bag you'll use sparingly whilst you walk through an airport?

How we test golf bags

When it comes to the best golf bags, let alone ones from specific brands like Titleist, we take the testing process very seriously.

Multiple members of the gear team partake in testing the latest and greatest golf bags, and considering we test so much equipment here at Golf Monthly and typically need a golf bag to carry said clubs, it means each golf bag gets a rather rigorous testing!

As you may well have gathered, our golf bag testing takes place across multiple weeks, across multiple rounds of golf across multiple golf courses. We do this to ensure the fairest test possible and really put each bag through their paces. We don't feel carrying a bag for one round gives us a proper idea of the performance on offer, thus meaning the more we test, the more accurate the review we make out of it will be.

We're also very experienced when it comes to equipment testing, especially golf bags. Each bag usually comes with a unique selling points, be that lightweight, waterproof, storage or more. We know what the selling point is for each bag and test accordingly - for example, if they say a bag is waterproof one of our testers will brave the elements during a round to test this out. Therefore, if it doesn't hold up, we then tell you in the review so you can find a better, more reliable waterproof option! Thankfully, this didn't happen with any of the waterproof Titleist golf bags.

Finally, we want to reiterate that we pride ourselves with our review system here at Golf Monthly. Our testing is conducted by golfers, for golfers - we want to give you less of the marketing spiel and more informed buying advice to help you make the right purchasing decision.

Our reviews are bias-free and based off our knowledge of the market and products, our experience in testing and our passion for the game. No manufacturer ever gets preferential treatment from us, nor can a brand simply 'buy' a good review - instead, we simply call it how we see it.

How to choose a new golf bag

There are several key factors to consider when thinking about buying a golf bag and we have gone into those below...

Bag Type - Put simply what kind of bag do you want? Do you want a stand bag? Or a cart model? Or perhaps a pencil model? All of these types of bag have their positives and negatives and you should think about what you think is important to your golf.

Stand bags tend to be more lightweight but have less storage than bigger cart bags, thus requiring more effort to use seeing as they are on your back. Decide precisely what type of golf bag you want before beginning your search. Cart bags tend to be larger and therefore offer more storage, whilst they are usually designed specifically for carts as well.

Pencil bags are the lightest and most simple option. They'll often lack storage and likely won't have a proper stand, but the ease of use is night and day compared to stand and cart bags.

Storage - If you need to bring accessories onto the course, it's best to have a bag in which you can store them.

Whether this is extra layers of clothing, waterproofs or simply a few bottle of water, some bags provide better storage than other in relation to these items. Have a think about what you typically bring onto the course during your average round and make sure a bag you have your eye on can hold these items for you.

Waterproofing - If you live in the Arizona desert, chances are you won't have to consider this one. If you live on the west coast of Ireland, we highly recommend getting a waterproof golf bag! There's little worse than pulling out a club from your bag that has a damp grip or even your valuables being damaged out on the course.

Weight - Are you going to carry your bag? If so, keep and eye on the weight. Older carry bags used to weigh and tonne and were totally uncomfortable and boxy on your back - this is no longer the case.

Looks - Some golf bags offer a range of different designs and colors while others keep it pretty vanilla and offer the basic black or grey colorways. if you want to add a bit of flash to your game, take a look at what colors or designs your desired bag has before making a decision.

Budget - Our final factor to consider is of course price. There are golf bags at every single price point so if you want to go for a premium cart model you can, or if you want a cheap stand bag you can also do that too.

If you're not a Titleist fan, be sure you check out some of our other bag guides from other brands—such as the best TaylorMade golf bags, best Sun Mountain golf bags, or the best Callaway golf bags.
