Step 1
Collect golf catalogs, trade publications or visit a pro golf shop. Learn about the different styles, features and colors of golf bags. Note any that catch your fancy.
-
Step 2
Determine your fitness level for playing golf. If your strength allows you to carry your golf bag on your back and shoulders, great, you can use a carry golf bag. Make sure you get the golf bag with the double straps to support your back.
-
Step 3
Consider the compartments for your golf clubs when selecting a golf bag. The bags with tubes that prevent the clubs from knocking together will help the handles last longer. Also, the tubes keep the clubs organized if you like that sort of set up.
-
Step 4
Count the pockets on the bags. The more pockets the golf bag has, the happier the golfer—even when he shoots a 105. Pockets are a must because you need pockets for towels, extra golf tees, your divot tool, golf balls, rain cover and even another pockets for an extra box of golf balls.

Step 5
Get in the mood to choose the right color. Color means a lot in golf because you need to distinguish your bag from the others. And, it's just as important to look good on the fairway as having a great putt. Make sure the color suits your personality and style.
