How you get around the course
If you ride most rounds, a cart bag gives you deeper pockets and forward-facing storage. If you walk, weight and strap comfort matter more than pocket count.
Dividers and club protection
Full-length dividers keep shafts separated and reduce clatter, but they add weight. Fourteen-way tops are the most organised option.
Weather protection
Look for water-resistant zippers and a rain hood if you play in wet climates.
