TaylorMade San Marino Cart Bag
Details: Durable lightweight 420 denier nylon construction
Fourteen-way fused nylon top with full-length shaft dividers
New Internal Crush proof construction
Seven pockets include insulated cooler and velour-lined valuables pocket
Internal mesh storage pocket and key clip
Backside vertical lift handle
Integrated umbrella sleeve
Brushed aluminum hardware
Rainhood
Summary:
The TaylorMade San Marino Cart Bag is a elegant looking golf bag. The location and size of the of the pockets within the bag can hold substantial amounts of things, from balls and tees to drinks and clothes attire. The versatility and durability of the shaft dividers ensures that 'bag chatter' of the clubs during transport by a golf cart are kept to a minimum, thus reducing the likelihood of damage to your clubs
Pros: All the TaylorMade golf bags are made to last and the TaylorMade San Marino Cart Bag is no exception. The pockets, shaft dividers and metal clips (for golf towels and carry strap) and rain hood are all durable and extremely glamerous.
Cons: Some of the pockets could have been a little bigger, but overall there is nothing wrong with this bag
Customer Service and Cost:
I purchase this bag from a golf shop in the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia for AUS$185. I guess from what iv'e seen that this price is fairly competitive.

Golf Shoes
Footjoy Classic Dry
Golf Shoes Reviewed:
Footjoy Classic Dry Golf Shoes
Details:
Hand-made in the U.S.A., FootJoy Classics Dry Premiere golf shoes feature premium calfskin, which provides superior beauty, comfort and softness along with outstanding durability and resistance to stretching.
Summary:
The purchase of this shoe really is dicated on whether the majority of your golf is played walking or riding the course. At first the shoe was very stiff after walking a few rounds. They never really felt as if they became broken in. Also, per Footjoy's instructions, I meticulously applied waterproofing, shoe oils, post play cleaning instructions, etc.... The non "dry" models hold water like a sponge and begin to feel like concrete boots after a wet round. You feet and legs will hurt in damp conditions. In dry conditions they are fine and comfortable but still heavy compared to less expensive, lighter brands. Keep this in mind. Also after spending so much I feel almost obliged not to scatch them or or get them dirty. Upkeep is time consuming. Find somebody at your club to keep them in shape.
Pros:
I initially liked the aesthetics, classic look and overall quality of shoe. If there were one item of golf equipment I wouldn't want to skimp on I thought it would be shoes.
Cons:
Shoes were heavier and required higher maintenance than I anticipated.
Customer Service and Cost:
Purchased these shoes through a discount golf store for $150.
