I got to see the Cobra cart bag I mentioned in one of my previous posts. I'm going to try one. The only reason I looked at the Cobra bags was because I recently fell in love with some Cobra clubs... just a stupid brand loyalty thing I have.

the Cobra Sport Cart Bag has enough sufficient pockets for balls, tees, gloves and a rain suit. The key issue is, it doesn't have individual separators and the top is actually fairly big enough to allow me to more easily get clubs in and out of the bag. Because I use a very sticky grip, the Golf Pride Tour Wrap Midsize, they cling to each other unless there is enough room to rattle the clubs around and get them apart. In the meantime, I'm not getting rid of the Datrek bag.

The Cobra sport cart bag arrived and it's in play now. One thing I noticed that I like is that the little pocket above the ball pocket isn't so little. I tend to put my wallet and keys in there and have had some bags where that pocket was pretty tight.

The bag doesn't have an interior molded section, so it's a lot lighter than my Datrek bag. I could probably carry it for 9 holes without too much problem, but in a Miami summer, just carrying it from the car to the clubhouse is a sweat fest.

So, all in all, this looks like something that, (provided it holds up), I will actually be happy with.

Does it have external holders for balls and tees for easy access rather than dig into a zipper pocket?

No, there are no little holes for tees or web slots for balls. It's more like a miniature staff bag in design, but with the shoulder strap on the opposite side from the ball pocket so the strap isn't in the way of the pocket when the bag is strapped to the cart.

Do you use the shoulder strap to strap it to the cart? The cart I use comes with it's own straps on it so my shoulders strap lives in the top of a cupbroad for most of the time.

No, the electric cart has straps on it. The only time I use the shoulder strap is to carry from the house to the car to the clubhouse and back. I could actually do without the shoulder strap since the handle is on the opposite side and everything is light enough to carry by hand.

I just use the handle on my bag I never carry it that far. Plus it sites nicer on the buggy/ cart too
