Alright, let’s dive into this, shall we? Picture this: I’m knee-deep in a sea of golf bags — which honestly, I never thought I’d be, but hey, life is full of surprises, right? So, here’s the lowdown from my somewhat chaotic test of five Vessel golf bags. Spoiler alert: the Player V DXR bag pretty much stole the show. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
2025 Vessel Golf Bags: The Rundown
Alright, so first things first, imagine testing these things beyond their limits — like strapping one on to run across a dewy golf course at sunrise, hoping not to trip. There’s something oddly satisfying about that early morning grass. Anyway, below’s how they all fared, or rather, how much they made me sweat:
Bag Name | Type | MGS Score | Rank | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
Player V DXR | Stand | 9.6 | 2nd | Runner-Up, Best Stand Bags |
Player V Pro | Stand | 9.3 | 15th | Best Premium Stand Bag |
LUX Air | Stand | 9.3 | 12th | |
LUX Cart | Cart | 8.9 | 12th | |
Sunday III DXR | Sunday | 9.6 | 1st | Best Overall Sunday Bag |
Vessel Player V DXR: The Head-Turner
I really don’t know why, but this one stood out for me, seriously. The material? Some snazzy-sounding "Diamond X-PAC Ripstop." Sounds like something Batman would use, right? It’s durable but sleek, a real eye-catcher, and my graphite shafts have never felt more loved. If sugar daddies are your thing, or just splurging on nice things, this is for you. Unless you’re counting your pennies, then, err, maybe next time?
Player V Pro: The Luxe Life
And there I was, lugging this around, pretending I was on the PGA Tour. This bag is all about feeling fancy with its “luxe” finish. But warning: it’s not light. A good workout, though! If you’re about that premium life, this might just be your soulmate. I mean, who needs practicality when you have style, right? Unless light-as-a-feather is your mantra, in which case, look elsewhere.
Sunday III DXR: Lazy Sundays and All
Ah, the soothing sound of clubs clinking. Wait, is that noise soothing? Never mind. The Sunday III might be slightly on the chunky side for a Sunday bag with its five-ish pounds, but the comfort? Oh man, self-adjusting straps are a game-changer. It’s almost like the bag knew my back was getting old. If storage meets minimalism floats your boat, this’ll float it like a pro.
LUX Air: Just Breathe
So, this one’s the newbie waiting for spring to strut its stuff. It’s light, under five pounds, and reminds you of that one really organized friend who still manages to carry all the essentials. Fancy without being over-the-top, if you like class with minimal weight, don’t sleep on this.
LUX Cart: Middle of the Road
And here’s where I admit, I wasn’t overly wowed. Sure, it’s functional, but if you’re not carrying it, does weight even matter? It’s okay — storage is decent, but those dividers… well, let’s just say I’ve seen better. If you’re riding in comfort, and not too fussed about weight, this could work.
Final Bits and Bobs
Honestly, I could go on, but I’ve got clubs to polish and fairways to wander. Dive into each category if you’re as curious (or nosy?) as I am. Below are some links in spirit, because who remembers URLs anyway?
