Why you can trust Golf Monthly
When it comes to golf stand bags, the market is full of choices with companies producing a bag to meet every need of the golfer. OGIO is just one of these companies that are growing in popularity amongst sportspeople around the world. Let’s talk about the rather striking pattern and colourway of this bag. OGIO are renowned for their fancy designs that help your bags stand out from the crowd and this one is no different. The bold flower design is perfect for every golfer looking to add a little flare to their game. There are 11 other colours and patterns to choose from, ranging from a simple black to styles even bolder than the flowery one we tested.
The hybrid style of this bag lends itself nicely from carrying the bag to using it on a trolley. It is slightly larger than a standard carry bag like the Ping Hoofer and therefore offers plenty of storage space just as a cart bag would. Some golfers may prefer to use this bag solely as a cart bag due to its size, however, it is incredibly lightweight so you will have no trouble carrying it over 18 holes. The legs of the bag offer a sturdy base and at no point have I felt that the bag could fall over.
As the name suggests this bag is ready for anything. With its waterproof fabric and seam sealed throughout the bag it offers the ultimate protection to your valuables and golf gear. There is nothing worse than the shoulder straps of your bag getting wet when you are carrying, well the All Elements bag from OGIO comes with waterproof shoulder straps so you don’t have to worry about that.
The top of the bag is divided into eight so there is plenty of option and customisation for where you want to put your clubs. These dividers have a moulded WOODĒ protective cover that is designed to make for easy access to your clubs and to protect them. However, I wasn't a huge fan of these rubber top dividers as they can catch the grips of your clubs when you pull them out and put them back. They also caused some superficial marks on my graphite shafts, but these did rub off easily. This is just a minor thing and doesn’t affect the overall performance of otherwise a great bag and these rubber mouldings will definitely provide that extra bit of longevity to the bag.
As well as great storage the bag also boasts two drink holders and a cooler pocket for snacks. If you’re a golfer who likes things to be made easy, you no longer have to unzip your bag to go fishing for another ball as the All Elements Hybrid bag has a ball silo on the front, up to three balls can be held here! Another feature I really like is the pencil or tee holder on the bag. I am not a fan of fishing around for a pencil in my pocket because I constantly confuse it with tees so the pencil holder on the bag makes it so much easier and saves time.
Overall, the All Elements Hybrid Stand Golf Bag by OGIO is one of the best hybrid golf bags on the market with numerous amounts of funky designs to choose from so you can look cool amongst your peers. If you look good, you play good. At least, that’s what I say.

Monty is an upcoming golf journalist having completed his Multimedia Journalism degree at Bournemouth University; where he was also apart of the University’s well renowned golf team. He has had a passion for golf ever since he picked up a club at 12 years old and this love for the sport only grew stronger over time as his game developed and he pursued golf through different avenues. His game took him over to the United States on a golf scholarship and has had him travelling the UK to take part in competitions like the Nick Faldo series and general club scratch matches. Monty worked on ‘The Open’ radio team when it was hosted at Royal St George’s getting to walk inside the ropes with some of the top players like Justin Thomas, Rory McIlroy and of course that year's winner - Collin Morikawa. Monty has been lucky enough to have three holes-in-one in his short golfing career and he looks to continue growing that number. Monty believes the ability to continue playing golf well lies in his dedication to keeping fit through his other passion, which is CrossFit.
