I'm looking at new bags, and see that there are many types of tops and dividers. I can't decide which is best.

I'd like to get a top that allows me to keep my clubs organized and make it easy to spot a missing club. My bag now has several dividers and is highest in the center, and the clubs are just all over the place. A real mess finding the right club quickly and seeing if I accidentally left one behind.

The bags with the top angled down fro back to front look promising, but would appreciate any advice.

BTW, I almost always ride, but still want a light weight bag.

Thanks!

I like a bag with deviders for each club since, as you mention, it both helps with organization and knowing where a specific club ought to be and to notice if something is missing. This seems to be a feature found mostly on "cart bag" styles, though I believe there are some "carry bags" that have it too. I also believe the sloping down from back to front is mostly a cart bag feature. Light weight is something most of us that schlep clubs in our car very often certainly can appreciate. Sadly, there is always going to be a trade off between weight, features (number of pockets and deviders, etc.) and durability of construction. Electric carts are the norm around my area, so cart bags are a viable option.

My bag has 7 slots, two clubs per slot. Not hard to deal with like a slot for every club, and clubs don't get stuck together because there are too many per slot.

Swing like bamboo in wind; ball still laughs.

I prefer bags with 14 way divider. Keeps everything organized. The bag I'm using now is a Titleist premium stand bag, basically a Sun Mountain Four Five. Works well and still has enough pockets and storage as an alternative to a larger, heavier cart bag. Fits nice on a power cart and on my Cliqgear push cart as well.

In my Sun Mountain 14 Way Stand Bag:

Driver - Ping G30 10.5* : Fairway - Ping G30 18* : Hybrids - Titleist 915H 21* & 915 H 24* : Irons - Mizuno JPX 850 Forged 5 - GW : Wedges, Vokey 54.14, Vokey 58.12 : Putter - Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 or Ping Craz-E-R  : Ball - Bridgestone B330RX, Cart - Cliqgear 3.5

    • They sure do. 158 with an 8 iron is on the high end for me
    • Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.  
    • Distances look fine, no?
    • Day 207-12 Wider backswing and arm reconnecting in downswing. Did a much better job with proper wrist movements through downswing today.
    • Trackman place today. I broke my tripod so could only film by hand the video the venue’s cameras generated. This is an 8 iron. Amazing how odd this feels relative to how it looks. Not similar!
