Golf Bags - Choosing a Women's Bag

If you're looking for a women-specific golf bag follow this guide to choosing the right one for you
Women's Golf Bags: How to Choose One
Your golf bag is one of the most important pieces of equipment that you will buy for your game. You could have the most expensive and professional set of golf clubs, but if you don't have a good bag you won't be able to use them! The key thing to remember when choosing a golf bag is that it is there to help you protect your clubs as well as help you carry them around. So ensure the material is a high-quality, waterproof fabric, and that the bag is well padded. Women's golf bag designers are being much more creative with their products, so you can now choose your golf bag in pretty much any colour you like, from bright pink to olive green, or more traditional black or white. Some even come with matching rain hoods so you will look stylish as you stay dry. Many women's golf bags now come with their own stand, so you can set it up and have easy access to your clubs anywhere.
Women's Golf Bags: What to Pack in Yours
Whilst packing your golf bag, it is worth remembering that you will have to carry or pull it around a course for a few hours, so keep it to a minimum. These are just some ideas of what to pack in your golf bag:
•Golf Balls
Beginners will be looking to carry about 10-12 golf balls in their bag, whilst more experienced swingers should pack five or six.
•Golf Glove
You will need a good quality golf glove to help you grip your club and protect your hands (especially if you've recently treated yourself to a manicure!)
•Tools and Tees
Always carry a divot repair tool with you, and several different tees for your golf balls. These are so lightweight that you can afford to pack more than you need in your golf bag.
•Health & Safety Kit
During summer make sure you put a high protection sunscreen in your golf bag, and an umbrella and waterproof gear all-year round in case of rain. Band-aids are also handy in case of injury, and a bottle of water or isotonic drink is essential to keep you hydrated.
