The Shield cart bag is a brand-new bag with a modern twist. The Shield utilizes its exclusive hard ABS finish to highlight its new classic, sleek design from top to bottom. Aside from being a captivating bag, it’s also practical. The hard ABS shell serves as a protective armor for precious valuables inside the bag.
“The Shield bag will catch your eye because of its ABS shell,” said Pat Gallagher, Product Manager at Bag Boy. “Once you learn that the bag is not only alluring, but also sensible, it makes the decision to replace your old bag with it that much easier.”

With ten total pockets to keep your personal items safe and in-tact, there is no want for more space. In addition to the dedicated, oversized putter well, the bag also includes soft-grip, rubberized lift assist handles integrated into the top.

All accessories considered, the bag weighs in at just 5.5 lbs.

10. Gator Golf Putting Game

Gator Golf

For 2-4 players | Ages 3 and up

A hole-in-one is a lot more fun with Gator Golf! Grab your flamingo golf club, and aim to feed this hungry little Gator. Sink your putt by hitting your ball through the Gator’s mouth into his tail to score, but watch out – he’ll flick your ball with his tail for more putting action. Fun, active gameplay gets kids up and moving while developing large motor skills and hand-eye coordination. Cute birds on the Gator’s back serve as built-in score keepers.
