Callaway 2023 Fairway C HD Stand Bag Review
Callaway has one of the largest stand bag ranges out of the big brands, so it can often be difficult to know which of its models is best for you. After testing the new 2023 Fairway C HD, I can categorically say that if you want a lightweight and fully waterproof stand bag from the brand, look no further than this.
At 2kg (4.4lbs) this is one of the most lightweight bags you can get that still holds all 14 golf clubs and more. There’s no more satisfying feeling than carrying a lightweight golf bag over 18 holes and 2kg is a great starting point before you start filling it up. Indeed, only the Wilson Exo Lite stand bag can compete with this sort of weight. Coupled with the lightweight nature of this bag are the all-new straps and hip pad system that uses EVA molding for added comfort around the shoulders and back. The EVA within the straps and on the hip pad adds a level of softness that you don’t get with many other of the best straps like the Ping Hoofer or Titleist Players 5 Stadry and makes for one of the best carrying experiences I’ve had in a golf bag. The legs create a really solid base too when the bag is stood up, but this bag won’t translate onto a pushcart as well as bags like the TaylorMade FlexTech, a bag that has a base designed to be carried and used on carts.

However, the five pockets that are on the Fairway C HD are substantial and, in my opinion, will offer more than enough room for what a golfer needs to carry. The best of the five is the valuables pockets which is fleece-lined to protect your phone from scratching as well as being pretty deep, allowing you to comfortably store a phone, wallet, keys, and more in there. The large side pocket is perfect for holding larger items like apparel and the bag also comes with a rain hood which you can store in this pocket.
There’s a small side pocket behind the Callaway logo which is ideal for gloves while the ball pocket on the front is large and deep enough to carry as many golf balls as you’ll ever need (hopefully). There is a cooler pocket too, however, this is where my main gripe with the Fairway C HD appeared. It’s incredibly poorly designed in my opinion as the opening is too small and too…
