If you're like me, you play golf once or twice a week, and your garden variety stand bag fulfills all of your needs. Pack up a couple of granola bars, a Gatorade, and maybe a light raincoat -- and you're good to go. However, if you're not like me and you're a good, dedicated golfer, you might need a little more roominess in your bag.
Staff bags (also knows as tour bags) are designed for the golfer who plays several rounds of golf a day and needs a little bit more gear. If you need to pack a change of clothes, some waterproofs, and a lunch, the staff bag may be a little more up your alley. However, they're typically made for golfers who have caddies, since that can be a lot to lug around.
The Callaway Tour Authentic Diablo Bag is the cream of the crop when it comes to staff bags. With 7 zippered pockets, reinforced leather and nylon construction, and a massive 10.5" top, the Diablo dwarfs many tour bags, let alone any stand, cart, or carry bag. On top of all of that, the enormous "Callaway" emblazoned on the side of the bag, as well as the masculine red and black design, makes the bag all but intimidating to look at.
If you're looking for a top quality staff bag and can justify spending a little extra to look professional, the Callaway Diablo Staff Bag is an excellent choice. Just make sure you bring a caddy along, as these bags can get a little bit heavy when you're forced to lug them around all day.
