Why all the pockets

[aidanmcg33]

Just got a new golf bag today, a powakaddy deluxe. But what are all the pockets for my last bag had one big compartment for balls, one for a jumper and a small one for tees and that was it. This new one ive no idea how many pockets there are or what they are all for? What do you use the various pockets for?

Extra spikes for my shoes, and tool.

Drinks ( which your bag has a little mini cooler )
Tee's (driver and iron tee's)
Balls
PGA rule book :)
Shoes
Gloves
Various chalk,or liquid chalk
pocket for junk balls for those risky shots, or ones you want to go nuts with
cell phone (on vibrate of course)


I can go on and on, I have about as many pockets as your bag does and I think I need more, lol

hahhaha...good question. pockets are for whatever you want them for. Just because you have a million pockets on the bag doesn't mean you have to use them.

For example, the mizuno twister bag i have is an absolute ripper, but just to demonstrate how redundant all those pockets can be, you can bascially remove all but 2 of the main ones and off you go with a minimalist stand bag on the course !!!

sun mountain c130 cart bag has 9 pockets, 4 of them running down the length of the bag. Along with the obvious, I've got several towels, an extra shirt and socks, rain gear, and one of the small pockets is dedicated to cigars.

for me....
balls
tees
drinks
cellphone (velvet lined pocket)
rulebook & golf log & scorecards
3 new gloves & powerbars
nike sleeves & rain cover
junk (divot tools, other tools, tape, string, ball markers, coins, sharpie, mints, spare cash ...)
in one pocket there is a clip to attach my keys, i like that.

just be careful not to weigh your bag down too much, it is too easy to bring everything
