Ram Golf FX-LOCK Silent Trolley bag review https://golf.vmondeika.com/ram-golf-fx-lock-silent-trolley-bag-review/ Thu, 17 Sep 2026 05:50:32 +0000 https://golf.vmondeika.com/ram-golf-fx-lock-silent-trolley-bag-review/

Introduction

Let’s start with a bold statement. I think Ram are one of golf’s more under-rated brands. 

The best driver I’ve ever owned was the Ram FX V. I’ve never had anything before or since that went straighter. When I’m hitting massive hooks now, I lament the day I ever let it go. 

Remember the Ram Zebra putter? Man, that mallet was a cult all its own. And Tom Watson gamed the brand too, along with Nick Price, Ray Floyd and Gary Player. Ram were a serious brand for serious players when I was taking my initial steps in the game. 

They live on and the traditionalist in me is delighted to see them doing so.  

But this isn’t some rose-tinted stroll down memory lane. When I took Ram’s new FX-LOCK Silent Trolley Bag out for a spin, I quickly realised it was an impressive bit of kit – with one very cool innovation you might not have seen before.

4.5 star review

NCG Summary

A spacious trolly bag with more pockets than you’ll probably ever need but which will live and die in your eyes by the 14-club locking divider system. I found it very useful – an easy way to store and find clubs – but wonder how it will look after a year of heavy use.   

PROS

  • Extremely good value 
  • Many spacious pockets  
  • Lock system keeps your clubs securely in place

CONS

  • How durable will the divider system be long term?  

Key Facts

Top Dividers 15 full length (includes the putter well)
Weight (kgs) 3.3
Pockets 10
Strap Single
Material Hard-wearing polyester
Waterproof water resistant
Valuables pocket Two
Velcro glove patch Yes
Water bottle pocket Insulated two-bottle beverage sleeve
Colour options 4

Key benefits and downsides

Key benefits Downsides
Value – at £119.99 it is hard to quibble. Durability – will have to report back on how the the divider system holds up over a full season, or more.
Pockets – from valuables to apparel, ball and bottle pockets, this bag has all you need for a long or quick round.
Lock system – keeps your clubs secure but also silent throughout the round. No more clatterting and banging!

First Impressions

I’m out of the stand bag game. I’m pushing 50 and, though I’ll continue to carry in the winter, the thought of hawking around a full set – particularly in these never-ending heatwaves – is not on my wish-list.  

When the RAM FX-LOCK Silent Trolley bag turned up, there was instant appeal. Particularly at the £119 price tag.

I’ve recently bought a new set of irons and wanted to resist the understandable urge to splash out on covers to protect them. I’m still in the honeymoon stage where I’m gutted about every little dent.  

It’s here the bag’s club dividers – this innovative locking system – really stood out and they do dominate everything about this product.

We’ll get into that in some detail shortly, but I really liked the red, white and blue colour scheme. And having only owned one cart bag before in my golfing life, I couldn’t get over the number of pockets – and their size!  

How I undertook the review

I tested the bag on a push trolley during several club competitions at Sandburn Hall, in York, and then on a golf buggy during a 36-hole day at Close House.  

What I found

Let’s get straight to it. If you’re looking at buying this – and that would be why you’re reading this review – you’re probably interested in two things: the price point and the divider system. 

At £119, this is exceptional value without being budget. I’ve yet to see whether it’s fully waterproof – this is the hottest summer ever, apparently – but if it’s not you are not missing out on much else.  

Pockets

There are an incredible number of pockets, 10 at my count and I may have missed a couple of hidden ones inside. 

They’re not gimmicks, either. The four front pockets – one for balls, one for tees, a cooler pocket, and I don’t even know what the top one is for – are incredibly spacious. You could fit every accessory you owned, plus two drinks and your suncream into the quartet alone. I know this because I’ve pretty much tried it.  

Two small zip pockets on each side are perfect to keep phones and keys apart and the two outside pockets were large enough to put a shoe in each (I was breaking in a new pair). 

I could comfortably insert a pair of waterproofs, take off the midlayer on a warm day, and have space for more in the larger inside pockets. 

You will never find yourself making compromises with kit again and I’ve not even mentioned the umbrella holder, towel buckle, or the glove patch. 

14-way Club Locking Top

Then there is the 14-way Club Locking Top. Ram say this is to solve the “annoying…rattle, tangle, and clatter on every bump of the cart path”. 

It is described as a “silent club-lock top that features 14 individual dividers with rubber sleeves that grip each shaft”.

They look a little ungainly at first, but they are very effective. Not only do they hold your clubs firmly in place, but they also remain in situ even if you’re bumping from path to heavy rough.

At first, I thought it was going to be a real hassle trying to figure out which divider I’d taken a club from as I tried to replace it after hitting a shot. 

But it’s very easy to locate the space and it’s even easier to find a club if you spend a second or two ordering them properly.  

My only concern here, and it’s probably unfounded, is how durable the rubber sleeves will continue to be with prolonged use. As you remove and replace a club, they spring back into place. That keeps the tension and it will be interesting to sure whether that plasticity remains the longer I use the bag. 

Putter Holder

Other highlights of this bag include the external putter holder, which is large enough to fit the driver as well, and, at 3.3 kilograms, this bag is an easy pick up even holding a full set.  

I’m using a Motocaddy push trolley and the Ram FX-LOCK Silent Trolley Bag fits very well and stay in place – no more mid-round adjusting because my carry bag has started to lean to the side. 

NCG Final Say

This is a seriously impressive golf bag at a value price. It’s light, seems to have space for everything, and comes in four colour options. How invested you get will depend on how you perceive the Club-Locking Top, but it’s an innovation that should be applauded and it works extremely well out on the course.

This travel bag has me adding golf to every trip I take https://golf.vmondeika.com/this-travel-bag-has-me-adding-golf-to-every-trip-i-take/ Thu, 28 May 2026 15:49:28 +0000 https://golf.vmondeika.com/this-travel-bag-has-me-adding-golf-to-every-trip-i-take/

Welcome to I Tried It, a GOLF.com series about golf items — apparel, gear, accessories, etc. — that we’ve recently taken out for a spin. We’re here to give our honest, no-frills takes on the latest and greatest golf or golf-adjacent items. So, scroll down to read about what we love about golf’s newest (or new to us) products.

As a frequent traveler, the allure of Golf on the Road always exists. I wonder what the San Francisco munis are like? What courses can I sneak on in Austin? I have that open invite in Philly — should I take it? 

And in my 20s, I chased it. I lugged clubs through every airport, on every trip — you name it. But before long, my very basic travel bag took a beating. I’d cringe as airline employees dragged and dropped it on the barrage carousel, the thin canvas surrounding my irons fraying in numerous spots. I had received the travel bag for free from an industry pal, and it lived up to one of life’s truisms: you get what you pay for. In this instance, I owned a cheap travel bag, and it made traveling with clubs worse. 

I had to hold its handle a certain way for the bag to roll straight. I had to be on linoleum floors, not sidewalks, for its wheels to keep from catching and dragging. Golf on the Road was less attractive with my travel setup. It was time for a change. 

I waited until the very last minute — visiting a PGA TOUR Superstore en route to the airport — but I landed in the right spot: the Club Glove Club Traveler.

Club Glove Club Traveler

Club Glove Club Traveler

The Club Traveler is a standard-sized, lightweight golf travel case, that will stand up to the rigors of airline travel. Formerly known as the “College” Traveler, this premium, padded and collapsible golf travel bag is equipped with a padded clubhead area, scratch-resistant interior lining, and shock-absorbing wheelbase to keep your clubs safe during transit. Arrive at your next destination with confidence.

This is an extremely anecdotal observation, but in my experience, the proper golfers I see at oversized baggage claim are always carrying their weapons in this bag. The slimming, padded nature of the Club Traveler makes it seem like your sticks are zipped up tightly in their own little sleeping bag. The base of it is rigid, providing protection, but also a sturdiness to keep form as you bob and weave between other travelers in ground transportation. It feels like an extension of my arm as I race from baggage claim to whatever ride-share driver is waiting for me. 

The Club Traveler comes with a “Stiff Arm” extender to make sure your longest clubs aren’t feeling any undue pressure, and its wheels glide smoothly, regardless of the surface. In the most simple terms, I no longer feel any angst about how schleppy it’ll feel to Golf on the Road. I’m back to adding golf to most of my travels, even if there’s no golf at the center of the trip. It may cost a decent penny up front — $350-400 or so, tax included — but it’s a purchase that feels more and more efficient each time you use it.
