The Best Sunday Golf Bags

What is a Sunday Golf Bag?

Sunday golf bags have their origins in some old traditions that involved caddies not working on Sundays — hence the name. While there are obviously now plenty of caddies to be found on a Sunday afternoon, the golf bag itself lives in for many functional and convenient reasons.

The obvious advantage is the smaller size bag, and the lighter weight it offers. No, you aren’t going to be able to store enough clubs for a full 18 holes on a standard course, but you can carry 6-7 clubs that will get you through an executive course, or maybe even just a driving range.

If you’re off for a quick jaunt at the course, or just need to hit a few balls around, the Sunday golf bag gives you just enough storage for your essential clubs, and your essential accessories, such as gloves, balls, and tees.

Sunday golf bags are very popular, and you certainly have plenty to choose from. We’ve narrowed down the best Sunday golf bags, and have included one travel Sunday golf bag.
