  1. I'm in the market for a new bag. I currently have a Cart15 bag. I'm looking for something lighter weight that I can walk with. My only is concern is about the durability of my clubs when I travel with a lighter/smaller bag. Is this a concern I should have? Thanks!

    I am assuming you have a soft travel case. A hard case will totally eliminate your concern. As for a soft case, the bag itself is not where most clubs get damaged. They usually break at the head or neck of the club due to handlers dropping them top first or throwing bags on top of them. A "stiff arm" and towel wrapping helps avoid that problem but still can occasionally happen. The problem with the bags getting damaged is primarily the aluminum legs on stand bags. The Players 4 Carbon has graphite legs when do not get bent from baggage abuse. Your other option is to change back to a cart bag when traveling and use your stand bag at home while walking. Hope this helps.

    I have one of Titleist older Lightweight carry bags and it has traveled well for many many years. I have taken good care of it and pack it carefully in the back of my SUV. When I fly it definitely is my go to bag, as I use a hard case travel bag. I also use a Tour Midsize Bag when I travel. No issues, but only in my SUV. Players 4 Stand Bag look very much like what I have. Very lightweight 3.8 lbs. Hopefully someone else who is a walker will chime in. I always recommend a black bag, They seems to wear better in summer conditions and do not show wear as much.
