Bags
Bags are also another mandatory piece of equipment. Bags are used for carrying the clubs, however many other things like food, driks, balls, tees and glowes can be stored in them.
There are generally three types of bags. The most common type are bags ment for pull carts, sometimes those bags have wheels integrated into them. They're the most common type of bags, but not necessarily always the best option. The second type of bag are carry bags. They're bags with automatically retracting legs and thick carry straps. I personally use those of bags. I like them because it's easy to move around the golf course when you don't have to worry about the pull cart. The downside of carrybags is that you have to be in quite good physical condition to carry the weight of the bag and clubs, that's why they're mostly used by young men. The last type of bags are tour bags. They are massive bags made of leather. You can fit a huge amount of equipment in them, they are also very durable and good for travellers. The downside of them is that they're very heavy, and you often need to use a golf car to carry them. Overall the bags are good if you're allowed to use a golf car in your club, some clubs only allow the cars for handicapped golfers, but in countries like the US most of the people use cars.
