Girls Need Bigger Golf Bags
(or why size matters!)
When you start to play golf, one of the first bits of equipment you’ll need is a Golf Bag. Originally these were invented to carry your clubs. Recently (now girls are seriously taking on this man’s game) they are becoming much more useful than that!
On a recent game of golf with another couple I couldn’t help noticing, with amusement, the differences between the Guys’ bags and their contents, and ours. Below, are some observations which you may like to consider if you are thinking of investing in a new Bag!
Guy’s Golf Bag - slim-line over the shoulder model
Girl's Golf Bag - multi-pocketed, lightweight electric version

Girls Golf Bag

However while out having a game with a friend of mine I noticed that she had taken the ‘Art of the Golf Bag’ to a whole new dimension. In the course of the round (at various intervals,) we were treated to face and feet spritzers, and a soothing compress (or face towel wrapped round ice cubes,) to cool us on the warm day. We just loved the variety! No wonder she has so many friends!
