We tested five Vessel golf bags across stand, cart and Sunday bag categories. After testing for walkability, weight, storage, divider functionality and more, the Player V DXR stood out as the best overall Vessel bag of 2025.

Vessel Player V DXR (Best Overall)

Finished second overall in our test of 45 stand bags. The DXR’s Diamond X-PAC Ripstop material, full-length dividers, and sleek design make it a standout in performance and style.

Skip This If you’re on a tight budget or insist on genuine leather/”tour-grade” synthetic.

Vessel Player V Pro (Best Premium Stand)

The Vessel Player V Pro earned the title of best premium stand bag of 2025. If you are not on a budget and want the best of the best in a stand bag, this one is a good choice. It has a “luxe” pebbled finish and “tour-grade” synthetic leather. Although it’s heavy, the patented strap system distributes weight comfortably.

Buy This If you love a little extra luxury and want multiple divider/colorway options in a premium stand bag.

Skip This If you’re looking for the lightest carry bag possible (it weighs over nine pounds).

Vessel Sunday III DXR (Best Sunday Bag of 2025)

Our favorite Sunday bag, though it can handle a full set (14 clubs) if needed. At just over five pounds, it’s heavier than typical Sunday bags, but testers loved the comfortable self-adjusting straps and premium materials.

Buy This If you want the perfect blend of a Sunday-style bag and practical storage for up to 10 clubs (or more).

Skip This If you need an ultralight Sunday bag strictly for half sets, this one’s built more like a compact stand bag than a minimalist Sunday sack.

Vessel LUX Air

The Vessel LUX Air is due out later this spring. It finished inside the top 15 in stand bag testing and weighs under five pounds. It still has ample storage and is easy to carry. It’s a good choice if you want a slightly smaller stand bag with a refined look.

Buy This If you want a high-quality, lighter stand bag without sacrificing the classy Vessel aesthetic.

Skip This If you’re looking for maximum pocket space or a heavier, more “tour-inspired” bag.

Vessel LUX Cart

The Vessel Lux Cart bag finished in the middle of the pack in our cart bag testing. It has good storage and features, but it’s heavy. We also had testers who didn’t rate the dividers as high as you will find with Vessel stand bags.

Buy This If you primarily ride and want a cart bag that pairs functionality with Vessel luxury.

Skip This If you want the top golf cart bag of 2025, which will offer a better balance of storage, divider technology, and weight.
