Why you can trust Golf Monthly
There are very few golf bags that I find light enough to carry a full set of clubs in, yet this is definitely one of the best lightweight golf bags I've ever carried. Weighing in at under four pounds, the Titleist Players 4 StaDry stand bag feels like a feather to lift and even when loaded with clubs, balls, accessories and the best waterproof gear the weight is more than manageable on your back.
The double strap design undoubtedly lessens the burden by evenly distributing weight across your shoulders. It was also very easy to adjust the strap length to raise the bag higher up my back as there was a handy adjustment guide tucked inside the bag to show me what straps to pull to shorten it and balance the weight.
The legs are made from a high-grade aluminum that is strong and helps it stand up stable, even on a sloping lie as you would expect from the best golf stand bags. The fact that they are super lightweight however, does mean that your bag can get blown over in a strong gust on a windy day quite easily, so that's something to be aware of but that is the trade off for having a bag that is much less of a burden to carry.
Putting the Titleist Players 4 StaDry Stand Bag through it's paces at the Palmerston Course at Brocket Hall.
As the name suggests, the StaDry is fully waterproof, with the kind of seam-sealed zips you find on all of the best waterproof golf bags to ensure that not a drop of rainwater seeps inside, protecting your grips from getting slippery even on a very wet day.
There are pockets galore, plenty big enough for extra clothing, rolled up waterproofs and snacks, plus a few nice added extra features like the drinks bottle holder and a place to velcro your golf glove to if you take it off to putt. All of this, plus a velour club divider section to stop your shafts getting damaged, adds up to making this a very versatile carry bag indeed and it is certainly one of the best golf bags for women.
It was pleasing to see that there are a rainbow of color choices on offer, so there is something for every taste. Colors available include Orchid/White/Iris, Black/Red, Black, Navy, Dark Red/Grey/Black, Royal/Navy/Grey, Navy/White/Red, Charcoal/Candy/Black, Grey/Green/Graphite, Grey/Graphite, Marble/Vintage Blue, Olympic/Marble/Bonfire, Baltic/Black.
In my opinion everyone should own one of these Titleist Players 4 StaDry stand bags, even if you only use it for holiday golf, it’s a brilliant bag.
