Players 4 Plus StaDry<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cEverybody talks about the weather, but nobody does anything about it.\u201d \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Charles Dudley Warner<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Pardon me, Mr. Warner, but you haven\u2019t heard of the Titleist company. It\u2019s doing something about the weather for golfers who play in the rain.<\/p>\n

For years, I\u2019ve been looking for a waterproof (not water resistant!) carry bag so when I\u2019m caught in inclement weather my clubs will stay dry. A diehard golfer who\u2019ll walk and play in a light rain, I recently discovered the advantages of Titleist\u2019s new Players 4 Plus StaDry lightweight stand bag. It\u2019s a winner due to its high quality construction and a smart array of features.<\/p>\n

First off, it\u2019s indeed light, weighing in at 4.2 lbs\u2014ideal for carrying, with a push cart, or in my case with a power caddie. It\u2019s also well-balanced and will stand up on its own on a flat surface. Secondly, it sports just the right amount of pockets, including a full-length apparel pocket to stow a rain jacket and pants. Most importantly, it\u2019s waterproof inside and out with seam-sealed zippers. Your clubs and accessories won\u2019t get wet in the bag even during one of those horizontal rain squalls.<\/p>\n

It always struck me odd that U.S. bag manufacturers didn\u2019t offer a waterproof bag unlike the ones I found in Scotland and Ireland. In my recent conversation with Sean Slater,\u00a0 <\/span>Titleist\u2019s Director of Marketing, I learned the company has been selling a waterproof bag in Europe.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve offered a waterproof bag overseas for years but then realized there was a demand for such a product in the U.S,\u201d said Slater. \u201cThe Players 4 Plus StaDry is new for us in 2021.\u201d<\/p>\n

Using focus groups and consumer testing, Slater said a number of \u201cbest practices\u201d were added to the new model. Nifty touches like velcro grabbers for a golf glove and a padded hub to lend comfort to one\u2019s back when being carried are among these features.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAnother feature added for 2021 is a quick-access accessories pocket with magnetic closure below the apparel pocket. Players told us they wanted a pocket for their range finder or scorecard,\u201d explained Slater who\u2019s been with Titleist for over three years.<\/p>\n

Based on Tour-inspired feedback, even the waterproof club cover was redesigned. \u201cIt\u2019s completely waterproof and easily attached to the top of the bag with velcro and with a quick access flap,\u201d said Slater.<\/p>\n

When the Covid clouds dissipate and overseas golf travel resumes again, this will my bag of choice. Of course, it also works well on this side of The Pond, too.<\/p>\n
