Vessel Lux Cart Bag - Unofficial Review

[Bohnson]

Review of the Vessel Lux Golf Cart Bag. I am testing the Ghost Gt-14 right now. My gamer is this bag. 

First Impressions: The Vessel Lux Golf Cart Bag stands out right from the moment you see it because it is high end. The sleek and modern design gives off a premium vibe. The materials feel high-quality, and the attention to detail, from the zippers to the stitching, highlight a premium product. It’s clear this bag was made for those who appreciate stylishness, functionality, and high-end golf.

Aesthetics: I think it features clean lines, and minimalistic branding. The synthetic leather material adds a luxurious touch. It's the type of accessory that elevates your look without trying too hard to flash.

Durability: The synthetic leather is not only beautiful but also highly durable. It holds up against the elements, showing minimal wear even after several rounds in varying conditions. The zippers are smooth and sturdy, and the reinforced handles make it easy to transport without any worry about fraying or tearing. Did get some scratches after falling on the cart path. You can clean and condition the leather to keep it looking new.

On-Course Performance: The bag offers a great blend of functionality and convenience with its well-placed pockets and organized compartments. The top 14-way divider is excellent, keeping clubs separated and easy to access. It stays secure on the cart, thanks to its sturdy base and well-designed straps. The insulated cooler pocket is a fantastic addition, keeping drinks cool throughout the round. I love the magnetic pouch.

Favorite Parts About the Bag: My favorite part of the Vessel Lux is the functionality. The magnetic rangefinder pocket is incredibly convenient, saving time during the round. The pocket also folds up for easy access to a cart strap. The large apparel pockets are roomy, perfect for jackets or extra layers, and the overall layout of the bag’s storage is on point. It is big enough to fit a ball grabber and everything you need in the side pouches. Numerous pockets for everything. I love the large putter well for my SS Grip. The integrated cooler and drink pockets are nice, making sure you’re hydrated without needing a separate cooler or drink holder. Seems to hold up well in the rain.

Least Favorite Parts About the Bag: If there’s one minor drawback, it would be the weight. While not excessively heavy, the materials do make it a bit heavier than some other cart bags on the market. It's not an issue if you primarily use a cart, but if you’re planning to push cart it frequently, the extra weight might be noticeable. You pretty much cannot use the bag as a carry bag because the strap is on the bottom so the clubs are upside down. Getting it in and out of the vehicle can be a challenge with the strap on the bottom of the golf bag. Putting the clubs in your vehicle upside down is not ideal so it takes some brute force. The price point may be a bit high for some golfers, but given the quality, it’s still a long-term investment.

Final Thoughts: The Vessel Lux Golf Cart Bag is an excellent choice for golfers who want a bag that has all of the bells and whistles and looks good doing it. If you are a cart or push cart golfer this bag doesn't disappoint. Easy to clean and built to last. While it may be on the pricier side and heavier, the durability, design, and functionality more than make up for it. This is a golf cart bag that will elevate your game and your style on the course.

If I could improve anything…. 
 

The ghost has a little mesh pouch inside of the magnetic range finder pocket. Perfect for extra battery and I use it to store my headphones. I like that ghost has a ball marker you can attach for easy access.
