Datrek 2022 Carry Lite Stand Bag Review

Datrek 2022 Carry Lite Stand Bag Review

Datrek first started manufacturing golf bags in 1979 and is still going strong today, which is a testament to the quality of the cart bags and stand bags the company has released through the years. One of the newest releases from Datrek is the Carry Lite stand bag, which was made available to the public for 2022 in late December of last year.

I recently had the chance to test the Carry Lite and came away highly impressed, as it checked all the boxes for me in terms of what I’m looking for in a stand bag, which is typically my preference in a golf bag as I both walk and ride when I play. The Carry Lite might not be the most stylish stand bag on the market today but it more than makes up for any perceived lack of style with ample substance.

My first impression of the Carry Lite upon unboxing it was that the bag was clean but simplistic in terms of its aesthetics. I was sent the navy, red, and white colorway and there are five other color options available as well. Most noticeable, however, was how light the bag was, weighing in at just 3.9 pounds. That said, it wasn’t flimsy at all, rather it was impressively sturdy in its design, from the ergonomic handle at the top of the bag to its well-crafted legs. The zippers for each of the five pockets also moved seamlessly along their tracks, and the four-way top and padded full-length dividers left me with no concerns that my clubs would not be protected during play.
