Forum Member Review: BagBoy ZTF Bag

We Tested a Modular Golf Bag

The Bag Boy ZTF (Zip-to-Fit) brings a new concept to the carry bag by adding removable pockets that allow the golfer to adjust its storage capacity.

Bag Boy says that the ZTF was “engineered to simplify the golfing experience. Zip-to-Fit

functionality allows users to easily unzip and remove larger exterior pockets on the golf bag. This feature enables golfers to transform a traditional stand bag into a lightweight Sunday bag with ease and eliminates the need to own multiple golf bags.”

Key features include: 

Two removable pockets to cater the bag to your round Four-way organizer top with full-length individual dividers Swivel clip attachment system for easy shoulder-strap separation Top-Lok® technology, a patented bag-to-cart attachment system

Four members of the MyGolfSpy Forum were given the privilege to test, review and keep the BagBoy ZTF bag.

First Impressions

As soon as the bags landed on their doorsteps, testing started and the first impressions started rolling in.

“The ZTF bag Is definitely a beautiful-looking bag. The zipper-teeth size and the metal badge in the middle of the bag really draw the eye.” – OdinSnipes414

Features and Function

Tester HeathS16 took a deeper dive into the key features of the Bag Boy ZTF bag. 

Zip-to-Fit Pockets: This is the flagship innovation for the Bag Boy ZTF stand bag. At first glance this feature is simply a way to make a golf bag lighter and smaller but after Bag Boy announced the sale of custom pockets I can see it is a way for golfers to continue to customize their bags with some very cool designs. These easy to attach and easy to remove pockets really do impact the bag’s profile and weight. This feature was especially useful when traveling. My four-day golf trip involved walking the Mountain Top Course at Big Cedar 3 times and being able to remove excess weight proved VERY beneficial. Top-Lok: The Top -Lok system worked very well.  As mentioned I use a push cart quite often and found that this bag fits perfectly and securely into my CaddyTek push cart. Sliding Shoulder Straps: The bag straps are clipped on and easily removed. The shoulder strap also slides easily to adjust to your shoulders and make an easy fit.”

First impressions were solid, but nothing else matters is the bag doesn’t perform on the course.

On Course Performance

“The bag is lighter than other bags in the category and the kickstand works well when carrying. It is designed to ride well on push carts and I had limited issues when using a riding cart.” – Carter18

A Few Hiccups

MrBandit noted an unusual function. 

“It fits just fine in the drive cart. Since it was smaller there was no issue with another bag in the cart. Getting clubs in and out was as expected easy enough, again this is more of a preference how you want to divide your clubs in the 4 slots, I have mine with woods in the back, irons in the middle and putter and wedges in the front.“

Tester Carter18 did have part of the bag clips break. However, this was quickly remedied by Bag Boy’s customer service.

The Final Verdict

Overall, the Bag Boy ZTF received scores between 24 and 26 out of 30 from our testers.

All of our testers said the bag would be going into their rotation, either as their main bag or a Sunday bag with the pockets removed.

“The Bag Boy ZTF stand bag is a solid option for those looking for a do-it-all setup. You can carry, ride or push and customize the profile and weight of your bag easily.” – HeathS16

Is the Bag Boy ZTF Worth It?

Priced competitively at $249, it’s safe to say that our testers had more good than bad to say about the Bag Boy ZTF golf bag. Testers praised the versatility of the bag and the ease of use. However, there are a few trade-offs to be aware of, as highlighted by our testers.

Tester OdinSnipes414: “Overall this bag holds up to claims to be a multi-purpose bag with zip-off pockets to make it easy to use. It is lightweight, the straps move easily, the pockets are easily removable and the material is very durable. The lack of a cooler and a smaller water bottle holder is really the only downfall.“

"I would recommend the ZTF version of the Bag Boy bag especially if you already use a Bag Boy push cart.” – Carter18
