A lot of people often gets confused in between travel bags and sports bags. Let us take a glimpse of some commonly used sports bags:

Inside, there are smaller, zippered pouches for valuables; outside, there is almost always a stretchable net pouch to hold things like ball, etc.

The net pouch is also convenient for wet clothes. Backpack bags have a main inside section for almost everything, a front zippered compartment for valuables, side pockets generally mesh to hold water bottles or shoes. And some have a net pouch or elastic bands on the front to hold a ball. Before, buying a backpack, make sure the straps are well padded as a lot of people suffer from scapula pain and worse situation can cause cervical pain if straps of the backpack are not well padded.

2. Cart, Carry, Tour & Hybrid: No! These are not the names of seeds or some plant variety. These are the categorization of sports bags for golfers.
