Where do you put your putter..... in your Sun Mountain or Titleist Bag (or 6 way top?)

[enis750]

maybe a silly topic, but cant seem to find a "happy" spot to put the ol putter
I have a Scotty Cover (not pictured) for my putter, that is a little bigger, but protects nice

where do you put yours and how do you structure your clubs in your bag
here is an older pic of where i have tried mine



(none of the clubs pictured are in the bag anymore, but thats besides the point.....)

i found the 4 iron got in the way as it is in this pic, but 4 irons per slot is almost too much

and yes.....its winter, im at work waiting for paperwork to be faxed...and bored...don't hate...

I keep min up next to my driver and hybrid, although this is in a standard Ping 4-Way top. I like it up at the top of the bag because it's out of the way of the iron heads.

Ditto. Same pocket as driver and 3-wood. The woods sit up high enough that the putter is easy to locate and pull out. (Also, I've got an over-size grip on my putter, so I need a non-cluttered pocket for easy insertion and removal.)

does your putter cover not sit above the pocket hole tho?

i know it doesnt w the PING bag, but i cant fit my cover in the pocket with a driver shaft in there....let alone 2 ok i got it... forgot I dropped my 52º ..... this should work fine now OR i hate having the putter in the way of the iron heads...so i think the first option will work best

As far up on the bag as it gets. Luckily, my Ogio bag has got its own pocket for the putter at the top, so the putter is rarely in the way of other clubs.

When a man can't find a happy spot to stick the old putter, he has time to work on all sorts of other stuff.

Funny you should mention this.

I've always had my long clubs at the top of bags, ie D, 3w etc, but always found it annoying pulling out irons underneath. I've just purchased a completely new set and now sort them like this:

TOP
D / 4, 5, 6, 7
3W / 8, 9, PW, GW
2H, P / 54.14, 60.07

Works perfectly. I've got the S-83, so no probs with 4 irons in each hole.

I have a bag with individual dividers for 14 clubs. Never had one before but I like it. It goes something like this....


---------Driver-------
Hybrid-----------Putter
Two --- Three --- Four
Five - Six - Seven - Eight
Nine-Wedge-52 Gap-Sand

I also have a Cameron and even the dividers down in the short iron row caused the putter cover to get all smashed when the putter was put in there, as the butt end of the grip did not reach the bottom of the bag. So I bought a .99 cents plastic golf tube, cut part of a big car wash sponge and shoved in in the BOTTOM of the tube, taped it off with a piece of duct tape, and put my putter in there, and in the slot shown above. The grip hits the sponge, the cover sits nicely 1 inch above the top of the tube, and the tube does not stick out of the top of the bag. You don't even know it's there....

Commence calling me a genius now please.

I actually started thinking about this again and may switch back from my 9" staff cart bag to my 10.5" staff bag just so my clubs don't feel cramped. I think I need medication...don't worry I will share!

But im actually having the same issue with my bag.  Ive been through a couple different slot configurations and I've settled on putting my putter in the top slot since its the most convenient.  I have a Cameron putter and the cover gets smashed and the velcro sticks to the bag for exactly the reason you described above.  Kind of amazing when you find someone with your same issue.

So anyway, any chance you can take a pic of what you did and post it?

That is frickin perfect! Now I'm off to find a tube.... Too bad I threw away about 20 of em about 10 years ago............

Great idea - I am really sick of having to back track on the course to find my scotty head cover. Even had a guy steal one when it came off (he tried to tell me that it was his head cover on a walmart special)
