It's my favorite. Of course if I had this bag, I would never stop annoying my playing partners with my Sherlock Holmes impressions….

"Elementary my dear Watson, simply eliminate the possibility of three-putting and all that is left is par... Elementary."

If Sherlock Holmes were a golfer, I think after much inspection, he'd appreciate this Ogio Wire Stand Bag. The bag is Ogio's lightest stand bag and is built for comfort. You have a choice of carrying this bag like a tour caddy, over one shoulder with one strap, or convert in easily into two backpack style straps.

It has a 7" Woode top for organizing all of your clubs and keeping them from banging together, and it has many pockets for all your balls, tees, and a rain suit.

I like how the pockets are all fleece-lined, and my favorite thing (besides the Sherlock Plaid) is the easily accessible water bottle holder. I can get to it even with the bag on my back.

If the Sherlock Plaid is not to your liking, the bag also comes in red, stealth, and camo. The camo is pretty wild too, I reckon.

Club Glove has a great reputation of constructing functional, durable products. And this is bag is pretty attractive to boot.

Let's start with the durability. The Club Glove Aficionado IV's fabric is designed and constructed per military specs. I'm not joking! They've specifically adapted this material for Club Glove. (I guess this is for those Navy Seals turned golf pros.)

Although it is durable, it is extremely light. The Club Glove Aficionado, weighing less than five pounds, is easy to hoof around on your back. But this is before you pack it full of all of your junk. And there are plenty of pockets to do so.

It has a huge pocket for your rain suit, a mid-depth gear pocket, and a shallow pocket for those hard-to-grab tees and ball markers. There is a full-size ball pocket and a soft lined pouch for your valuables.

The best thing about the bag is the lumbar pad that hits your back in the right place to add a little bit of support. Plus it has removable shoulder mold pads. And, of course, a invaluable water bottle holder.

This bag is so decked out it could double for your suitcase on your next vacation. Oh, and throw in a few cold beverages because it has an insulated cooler pouch. But I'm getting ahead of myself. I like to save the best for last.

The big ol' beautiful bag was built specifically to go on the Sun Mountain's four-wheeled Micro Cart, but don't worry -- it will fit wonderfully in most push carts and all electric carts.

The bag is loaded with pouches. It has two full-length clothing pockets. (You might as well pack a change of clothes for the turn.) It has two velour-lined pockets for your valuables (I'm going to need to get some more valuables) and a ball pocket with a two-way zipper.

Ahh, but the best thing about this bag is the aforementioned insulated cooler pouch. I could make this bag pay for itself simply in Coors Light savings at the golf course. (Remember -- never drink and drive your golf ball into the group in front of you!)

If you are fond of this bag and don't have a push cart yet, check out the
Micro Cart. The bottom of this MCB Cart Bag was designed to fit perfectly in the Micro Cart.

This generic Golf Digest Travel Cover will do the trick, but it's not the nicest thing in the world.

The pros: It will hold that big driver. The cover is 51 inches in height. It is made out of heavy duty 600D material. The handle is soft and padded for your pleasure. And it has wheels to easily transport across the airport. Oh, and of course, the price. It's inexpensive, but then again -- you get what you pay for.

The cons: It's not real solid. It probably isn't going to hold up to well to those "extremely delicate" baggage handlers. It's ugly and it doesn't have a whole lot of extra room for anything else.

If this is a one-time thing, and you don't travel that much with your sticks, then this bag should suit you fine. But if you are a more seasoned traveler and you take the clubs with you everywhere, I would suggest you spend a little more money and buy a case with better quality.

Check out this Bag Boy T-1000 Travel Cover. It's much better looking, is built to last, and can hold a lot more than just your golf clubs.

And for my very favorite cover, please look at the Sun Mountain 2009 ClubGlider Meridian Golf Travel Cover. This thing is really cool, and even has pivoting wheels that keep the bag upright so you don't break your back bending over to pick it up.

Look, I know you are dedicated to your sport and you can't wait to get this thing out by the street. This mail box screams, "Look at me, I'm a golfer!" I realize you are committed. But if you buy this mailbox -- you should be committed.

Maybe I'm being a little harsh. I'm just sticking up for your wife and your kids. These people have to live in the house, too. Plus, do you really want to make your house "that" house??

"Go down three blocks, you'll see a house with a really ugly golf bag mail box -- our house is the third one on the right after that."

If you get the mailbox, make sure you get this "I Golf, Therefore I Am Not Here" doormat. I mean, let's face it; if you're in for a penny, you're in for a pound. (I'm not really sure what that means, but my mom used to say it just before she grounded me for being an accomplice to some wrongdoing that I did not orchestrate, but was surely an accomplice to.)

It's time you quit ignoring the golf landfill that is your trunk. Look at the bright side: once you do the work and get your trunk organized, you're going to find at least a half a dozen golf balls that you didn't even know you had. (Thus, you can subtract 6 bucks from the cost of this Samsonite Golf Trunk Oraganizer right off the bat.) The last time I cleaned out my truck, I found one of my favorite green tools that came with my Scotty Cameron Putter.

This organizer has two levels of storage and a mesh upper section for all your small items like your gloves, balls, tees, cigars, car keys, etc. The bottom level is designed for your shoes. It will hold three pairs, so go ahead and throw in a back-up pair in, or perhaps a comfy pair of running shoes on those days you decide to give your feet a break. The top level has movable dividers for shirts, pants, jackets, and extra underwear!

This is a really practical item for all golfers, but especially those of you who travel a lot. Another great product for you travelers is the Sun Mountain 2009 ClubGlider Meridian Golf Travel Cover. This is a soft-sided, lightweight travel bag that has pivoting caster wheels that keep the bag upright so you don't break your back after repeatedly picking it up off of the ground.

Luckily it comes in colors other than pink or blue. This is a very reasonably priced golf stand bag.

The Datrek Quiver uses Izzo licensed dual strap system. Izzo is a popular brand you find on Callaway golf bags. I like all the pockets on the sides. There are four side pockets for storing everything from golf balls, jackets, sweat shirts, and a few beers. In addition, it has an umbrella holder and tee holders. The Quicker comes in other lovely colors: dark blue, light blue, gunmetal (my favorite), pink, and red. Finally, the Quiver comes with a one-year warranty.

For the price this is a good bag, but I'm partial to Sun Mountain products. I like the Sun Mountain 2010 Superlight 3.5 Stand Bag. This bag is a little bit lighter than the Datrek and has a cooler look. Sun Mountain makes most of the bags for Titleist. I like how the legs pop how very easily and the arm straps are padded and easy to put on. All in all, it comes down to personal preference. Both bags are good quality, comfortable, lightweight bags.

I'm going to let you in on a little secret, but please don't tell anybody!…. Come closer to the screen… Here it goes: Sun Mountain makes most of Titleist's stand bags! It's true.

Thus, if you don't care what name is on your bag, get this Sun Mountain Stand Bag and save some "moolah." The reason I bought the bag is because it is so light. You won't find a bag any lighter.

Another thing I like about the bag is the bag stand deploys very easily. I've had bags in the past that you had to play with it and push down in a certain spot to get the legs to deploy. I also like the position of the beer holder (uhh, I mean water bottle holder). It is very accessible while the bag is on your back.

The only thing I would caution you about this bag is to be careful when jamming clothes into the large side pocket. I've overfilled it a few times, then forced the zipper shut -- only to have the zipper split open while I was walking.

For a cool bag that will hold everything and includes an insulated cooler pouch, check out the Sun Mountain 2009 SCB Speed Cart Bag. Of course, you aren't going to want to carry this one -- it's to throw on a push cart or electric cart.

Every serious golfer has a shag bag in the trunk of their car. When you have a shagger full of balls, you don't need anything more than one golf club and an open field.

Some of the best practice sessions I've ever had involved my pitching wedge and my shag bag. I used to live two blocks from the beach in Cocoa Beach, FL. I would take my bag of balls and dump them in the sand and practice my bunker shots. I got pretty deadly with my sand game after that.

Let me give you a quick description of the Original Bag Shag Golf Ball Shagger. This is your typical shag bag. It holds 75 golf balls. To retrieve your balls, simply walk over and place the end of the tube over the ball and press down. No bending required. (I really wish they had something like this for my dirty socks in my bedroom.)

This is an invaluable tool in your golf arsenal because it opens up when and where you can practice your game. So grab your shag bag and soon you will brag about your ability to lag right up to the flag.

I can't help but think of dunking cookies in milk instead of golf. But regardless of the company name, this is a pretty nice little golf bag. I say "little" not because of the size -- it's pretty standard -- but because it is so light! It weighs in at a paltry 3.8 pounds. Granted, with all the extra balls I have to carry, it balances out -- but for the average golfer, this light bag could make a nice difference! With a name like "Ogio Vaporlite Stand Bag," you would hope it's light!

It is.

The Crossboy Lite mesh shoulder strap system also makes it really easy to grab and pack. The dividers are in a standard three-way separator system, but there are lots of nice pockets and a pretty accessible water bottle holster (even while you're carrying it). There is a detachable side pocket that I haven't really found a good use for yet -- but hey, it's there. There are some others that I have seen that boast a lighter bag, but this one really delivers.

Good job, Ogio. Now pass the milk.
