How the comparison works

Your choices are compared with each model’s product details. A missing or conflicting value stays unknown and cannot satisfy a choice you select. The starting order helps you browse; it does not rate real-world performance.

Source dates appear with each link below. A source date does not confirm today's price or stock.

Walking with clubs changes the empty-weight calculation

Sun Mountain’s Eclipse in Black-Garnet weighs 3.4 lb empty and has dual straps. Its C-Series hybrid in Black-Olive-Inferno weighs 7.2 lb and has a single strap. For a walking round, compare the carrying arrangement as well as empty weight; your clubs and accessories still add to that load.

The Eclipse in Falcon Blue-Navy weighs 4.8 lb and has 11 pockets. The Black-Garnet Eclipse has 7 pockets. If you need more separate storage, decide whether that layout earns its extra carrying weight. Sun Mountain’s storage and weight figures underpin these notes; loaded-bag comfort during a round has not been assessed.

Dividers describe the opening before they describe the interior

The Matchplay Swift Sunday has 3 dividers and 6 pockets, whereas the C-Series hybrid has 15 dividers and 7 pockets. That makes organization a separate choice from carrying weight. A divider count at the opening does not tell you whether each divider extends through the bag.

Before choosing a similarly organized alternative, inspect the maker’s interior layout and pocket descriptions. The storage count cannot tell you whether a particular pocket fits your equipment or whether your clubs will remain separated along their full length.

Before you buy

Is the weight with clubs in the bag?

No, it's the empty bag as Sun Mountain states it, so clubs, balls, water and rain gear all come on top. Empty weights run from 3.4 lb for the Eclipse E-1.5 with a 4-way top and dual straps to 7.2 lb for the C-130 VLO Hybrid with 15 dividers and a single strap. The Swift Sunday is the lighter of the two single-strap bags, at 4.8 lb with 3 dividers and 6 pockets. Only if a separate slot for each club matters to you: on the same Sun Mountain model, the 14-way top adds 1 lb on the Eclipse E-3.5 and 1.4 lb on the Matchplay and Matchplay Ballistic. The E-3.5 14-way and E-4.5 VLO are the lightest such bags, at 5.8 lb.

Does a 14-way top mean 14 full-length dividers?

Not necessarily. The count is the slots in the top, and Sun Mountain's figures don't say how far each divider runs down the bag. Pockets don't track weight either: the Matchplay Ballistic bags have 8 pockets against 9 on the regular Matchplay at the same weights.

Does this cover other golf bag brands or cart bags?

Only Sun Mountain is here, ten stand and carry models with one color each. The C-130 VLO is the maker's hybrid stand bag, and none of the ten is a dedicated cart bag.
