New Bag, Club Management Tips...

[SuperWade2]

I assume it's personal preference but wanted to get feedback on best practices for club placement/management in my new bag.

I used to play an old Datrek with round opening and 15 or so individual pockets that was supposed to hold 1 club each... I would invariable get 2 or 3 stuck in each without looking and would have problems getting them out.

I got a new set of clubs that came with a Bag, the Nike XTREME Sport II Carry Bag (see stock photo below). The bag is Oval It had 8-way divider system.



Any tips on longer clubs (woods, etc) top or bottom... General club Management tips, etc. The bag feels really light compared to my old carry bag and I'm looking forward to trying it out (with the new clubs of course)

I'll walk some (mostly 9 holes) and I have a push cart for some rounds and I also drive cart for longer 18's.

It's best to keep the longer clubs at the top, that way the irons don't rest against the longer shafts. Good luck with the new irons, I demoed the VR full cavity and they felt very nice, almost had a forged feel about them.

I have that same back except in Green in Black...

I keep my Driver + 3-wood towards the back and my wedges in the front and everything else fits in nicely in between. There's enough space so I can keep 2 Irons in each slot and I have my 5-wood, putter, hybrid in its own slot...

I seperate mine a certain way so I know where to look.

driver, 3 and 5 wood in one seperation.

hybrids in one

5, 6, 7 in one
8,9,pw in one
wedges in one
putter alone.

i have a different bag but what i like to do is put my driver and putter together, 3 and 5 wood together, 3h,4i,5i together 6i-8i together, 9i and pw together and my 56 and 52 together. basically i like keeping my woods/putter together at the top. irons/hybrids divided evenly in the middle and wedges at the bottom.

I usually go like this in my Xtreme bag:

Driver
3W, 4H ......5i, 6i
7i, 8i ....... 9i, PW
56*, 60*, Putter

Saw an article in Golf Digest about club/bag management, some complicated issues there, but getting it right might save 3-5 strokes per round (18 holes).

I usually go like this in my Xtreme bag:

That's how I usually put mine in my bag. Don't have a bag with quite as many pockets in it, but that's basically how I put mine together. If they aren't in the right order I definitely notice... and then have to put them in the correct order. haha
