Sun Mountain Baron Stand Bag Review
Sun Mountain Baron Stand Bag Review
Sun Mountain has a reputation for producing some of the best golf stand bags in the world. The Baron is a new addition to the brand's line and is a great choice for golfers who want a lightweight bag with some modern features.
Its roomy 9" four-way top with full-length dividers and six pockets, including a beverage pouch, offer plenty of storage space. Plus, heavy-gauge zippers with E-Z pull zipper tabs make pocket access a breeze.
Features
The Sun Mountain Baron Stand Bag is a striking traditional-styled bag with modern features, like a roomy nine-inch top with full-length dividers and six pockets. The bag also features a velour-lined rangefinder pocket with magnetic closure. The legs are durable and easy to operate, and the bag has a quick-release strap system that can be removed quickly and easily.
The bag weighs less than three pounds and is designed for the avid walker who wants to take his or her clubs along on the course. It is made with high-density foam shoulder straps that offer maximum carry comfort.
Another innovative feature on this bag is the carbon fiber legs and base, which are very durable. They are able to support the weight of the bag and also ride on a push cart if necessary.
While the bag is not as lightweight as a few of its competitors, it is very well-designed and constructed. It also features contoured, high-density foam shoulder straps and a roomy 9.0 top. The bag also has six pockets, including a beverage pouch and two velour-lined valuables pockets.
This bag is a great choice for the music-loving walking golfer who wants a way to play his or her favorite tunes while on the course. The Boom bag packs a solid sound output and is on par with most portable Bluetooth speakers. The only complaint that I had about this bag is that it was quite top-heavy, especially when the speakers are up there.
As a result, it was difficult to sling the bag around on a push cart. Fortunately, you can attach the bag to the back of a riding cart with its brackets but this will add to your overall load.

Design
Founded in Missoula, Montana, Sun Mountain Sport has been one of the game’s leading design innovators for more than 30 years. The company’s history is rooted in inspiration and invention that has led to the development of some of the most iconic golf bags, carts and outerwear on the market today.
This year, the company has continued to push innovation forward with the release of their new Boom carry bag. It is the first bag to integrate speaker technology into a golf product and it does it well.
The Boom stand bag packs solid sound output levels from a pair of built-in speakers, which are on par with most portable Bluetooth speakers. It also delivers ample volume throughout your round from tee to green, regardless of the weather conditions you may find yourself in.
In addition to the speakers, the Boom stands on four legs that extend and retract with a simple motion when picked up by the straps or top-side handle. When not in use, the legs can be tucked away to conserve space on the cart.
When not in use, the Baron stand bag is also very lightweight, which makes it an ideal choice for those who walk a lot or want to be able to nip out and play for a quick nine with something that won’t weigh them down. This single-strap carry bag also comes with a cushioned, plush-lined shoulder strap and integrated comfort hip pad as well as a chrome plate that can be personalized with your initials.
The stand bag comes in a variety of colors including green-lark-beach, black-nickel-cadet, beach-taupe-black, navy-red-white and sky-cobalt-navy. The stand bag is made from ballistic-style nylon and comes with an adjustable padded shoulder strap and a top-side handle for carrying on your back.
The baron’s modern features include a roomy 9”, four-way top with full-length dividers, six pockets including a beverage pouch and velour-lined valuables pocket. The bag also comes with a magnetic closure for the rangefinder pocket and heavy-gauge zippers with E-Z pull tabs for other pockets.
Value
The Sun Mountain Baron Stand Bag has a lot to offer the golfer who is looking for something a bit more than just an ordinary golf bag. This bag is crafted from ballistic-style nylon and features some very impressive components. Among its many innovations is the E-Z Lite Dual Strap System, which allows you to strap your clubs to the front or back of your bag with ease. It also sports a surprisingly large roomy nine-inch top with full-length dividers. The bag also boasts a number of modern conveniences including a small velour-lined valuables pocket and a beverage pouch with no cooler lining.
The best part is that the Baron comes in at a very affordable price. Moreover, the bag is built with an eye toward the eco-conscious golfer. It is the first in its class to use recycled plastic from the beverage bottle industry. The company is also a pioneer in green design, incorporating energy-efficient features such as heat-sealing zippers into its line of bags. You can find the Baron in golf shops near you, but it may be worth a trip to your local dealer for an accurate measure of your budget and the most suitable bag for you.
