What To Look For
A leading manufacturer of quality golf products for decades, Ping has three types of golf bags to fit golfers' needs. It offers the lightweight carry bag as well as the stand bag, which is another form of a carry bag. The stand bag is bigger than the carry bag, with a bigger top divider for clubs and more pockets. It has legs that allow the bag to stand when you put it on the ground. Ping also makes cart bags for those who usually ride. They are bigger and offer more pockets than the carry bags. You can also purchase a staff bag similar to the bags the tour players use.
Common Pitfalls
Ping has a reputation for being very strict when it comes to pricing of its products. Retailers could lose their Ping account if they are caught selling Ping products under predetermined prices. Therefore, prices should be very similar anywhere you see Ping products.
Where To Buy
Ping has authorized dealers that sell Ping products. Many golf stores such as Golfsmith, Edwin Watts and Golf Galaxy stock Ping bags. In addition, their websites on the Internet also offer the ability to purchase Ping bags online. Visit your local golf shop to view its selection of Ping bags. Ping is an industry leader when it comes to custom golf bags. Check with the local golf shop to view custom logo and color options.
Cost
The Ping carry bags range in price, starting at around $60 for its three-way top carry bag, as of 2010. The carry bags with a stand cost around $140 for the least expensive bag to $220 for the most expensive bag. The cart bags start at $165 and go up to $210, while the staff bags start at $290, with the most expensive at $420.
