You ok with ordering something Online? Probably your best bet when it comes to bang for your buck. (also you can add a few bucks to your budget because of the gas your save from a 60+ mile trip

Did you call the golf shop? Which bags do they carry? You need to see them up close though - I looked at a couple lighter carry bags (e.g. Mizuno and Titleist) for the wife this year and they were exactly the same bag with different OEMs plastered on the side. I went with a Sun Mountain Swift X. She carries < 14 clubs and could carry that thing all day no problem. If the bag was for me I'd have probably got one of their slightly beefier carry bags (> $100)

I have a titliest x86 bag and im happy with it. They're only 30 bucks more than the 100 you want to spend, i think. They dont have individual club dividers that you want, but i find the down side to club dividers is that the lining where the club rests wears out faster and leaves your graphite shafted clubs to be scuffed by the hard plastic underneath.

Ogio Sticks Stand Bag
about 3.4 pounds

you might be able to find a ping carrying bag online for a discount (retail $160)
to me these bags are worth it because they are very light and very simple

You should be able to get an Ogio bag from a couple years ago online for about $100, either on ebay or elsewhere. Best-looking carry bag out there in my opinion is the Sun Mountain 2.5 or 3.5, which are superlight, but sturdy and hold a lot more than you would think. I've been eyeing them recently but they're going for something like $189, which is obnoxious, and I poppoed for a new Nike carry bag last year so I can't really justify it. Just have to lug the extra 3 lbs. around and quit my whining; probably help if I didn't carry 30 balls in it too.

Ogio Vaporlite is a nice bag, not the best legs, but they work. I think Rock bottom golf has some good deals on till tomorow.
