No, unless you get paid too, having said that, I usually pick what works overall, but try to stick with Mizuno's bags because they are well designed and nice to carry.

There are probably some people who think you guys look like Mizuno fanboys. I almost picked up a red Cleveland carry bag last fall (it was on clearance for $75) but at the time I was carrying a Cleveland putter, 2, 3, and 4 wood, and 3-P TA1 irons. Can you imagine the controversy that would have caused?!?!?

I actually pondered picking up a clearance Ben Hogan carry bag for my Hogan setup - including vintage Ben Hogan Persimmons, Ben Hogan head covers, Ben Hogan Apex irons, wedges, and I even planned on wearing one of my 3 Ben Hogan caps (1 red, 1 white and 1 blue) - arrrrrrrgh!!!

I use a Titleist staff bag only because my fat buddies all ride golf carts. I prefer a bag thats comfortable to carry without logos. Why be a walking billboard for a golf club company who could give a chit about you?

I totally agree with this comment about the walking billboard. When I buy a vehicle, that is the first thing I remove, or have the dealership remove... the advertisement for said dealership. If they aren't paying me, I'm not advertising for them. If they aren't paying for it, they certainly aren't going to have their name on it.

amen to the car dealership thing... but with the bag i kind of like to rep a company i like. Just like wearing a shirt with a company name or logo on it. You cant say you wear blank colored shirts every day.

I have a PING Hoover stand bag for when I walk and recently purchased the Nike Tour Cart II bag for the cart. The Nike bag has an awesome layout with a putter tube up front. Both are great bags. My putter is the only club with the same brand name as the bag, but not on purpose.

The bag should only match your specifications, that is, what you are looking for in a bag. Nothing else...

If your top priority is to match the clubs being carried, then so be it. Kind of like Garanimals for the golf world - for those who remember this.

When shopping bag, I'm looking for one which is comfortable, durable, lightweight and with good features. Don't have a need to match it with anything.

^^^ I agree 10000%

no. I bought a Slazenger bag because it was less expensive and had all the features I wanted. I have Callaway,Cobra,Taylormade and Titleist clubs in the bag, so the bag matching wasnt ever really a thought. By having a less expensive bag I can spend more on clubs lol.

It's funny you make this comment, yet you drive around with the name of the car and car company on the back of said car.

I would compare removing a dealership logo on a car to removing the logo of the golf course/shop logo that you bought the bag from.

Whatever knocks your hair back. Personally, my Callaway bag doesn't match any of my clubs. When I bought it I was looking for something that would be easy to carry and with a cooler pocket. I did get some blank headcovers that match my bag. I will admit that I didn't like all my mismatched headcovers that went with my POS clubs.

Got the same bag, except in blue. I looked at tons of bags before the Warbird X, could not find a comparable bag at it's price. Although I have a few Cally clubs, I selected it based on price, features, and the best stand system ever. My Titleist sunday bag was purchased because it has the colors of my beloved Crimson Tide.

If someone wants all their gear to match, no problem. It is their equipment and money. I kinda like to have a "hodge podge", gotta get some things from Taylormade and Adams.

In my  Warbird Hot stand bag:

 NP2 3H,  DCI 990 4-PW,  Forged + 54/12,  RAC 58/8,

 Classic #1,  NXT Tour or  Burner TP

i have the exact same bag, Warbird X. Bought it for a deal and half at $60 on clearance. Turns out the clearance was for the older Warbird bags but the shop mislabeled it. Didn't realize til a week later. lol.

yeh it is funny 'cause if the dealship logo is on the license plate that's actually the first thing I do.

Why would a golf shop put their logo on my golf bag? I picked a Sun Mountain bag (I'd do wish their logo was a bit smaller) not a "Golf Town". I also removed the dealer license plate bracket and had them peel their logo off the back hatch/door, and they weren't even that gaudy. It was a matter of principle.

I only carry one Nike club, my driver. Rest are Ping other than my hybrid which is Cobra (because I hit it better than the G10 hybrid on test)

OK my new 3 wood is Nike before anyone says anything

I have to agree with others though that I do like the head covers on my woods/hybrid to match the bag colour if possible or be neutral, which is great for me as the bag is yellow/black and so are my Nike and Cobra headcovers, I must add that I did not choose the Nike 3 wood for this reason as I wanted the i15 but the price put me off (Nike Fairway was £89)
