Breaking Eighty | Best Golf Courses and Golf Product Reviews Sean Ogle · reviewer · Dec 2025

But let me tell you, this thing attracts dirt like crazy. That textured surface is like a dirt magnet. So if you play a lot in dusty, windy conditions, you’re definitely going to notice it on this golf bag, and it might not be the right choice. The Dri Lite Prime has 10 pockets and a 14-way top with full velour lining. It’s actually a very nice, luxurious-feeling top.
