Don’t be bummed that the MacKenzie MacDuck golf bag is not “in stock,” according to its website. Look harder. It’s only listed that way because all of MacKenzie’s leather golf bags are made from scratch. Now that hefty price tag makes sense, right? These beauties made by the Oregon-based company are insanely stylish. They look different than most everything else out there, but in a good way. There’s an eight-inch opening and two pockets for your clubs, and at just four pounds they are an easy lug around the course. Not to mention a good-looking one.
