    Hey all,

    Looking for a new bag for this year and I'm really interested in the Player S4 and S5 series - it looks like there are some great new upgrades that make going with this year's model well worth it.

    Honestly, I prefer the colours of the S4. However, aside from that, I'm having trouble seeing the advantages of the S4 over the S5: - It's slightly less expensive (though not enough to sway me one way or another) - It's only 0.2 lbs lighter (so basically as much as a deck of cards)

    Realistically, what would the advantages be of going S4 over S5, or should I just suck it up and get a less appealing colour in the S5?

    Thank you!

    For me, I went S4 to keep the diameter as small as possible. They increased it over previous Player 4 models but I find it more comfortable on my back, being that I’m not a large guy. I also do not need the extra pockets or the additional divider. I like the Carbon even more but the leg mechanism did not get the upgrade in 2026 so I went S4. You can’t go wrong with either one so pick what works for you and enjoy those walks.

    I think the question is really why people choose the S5 over the S4. The S5 has 2 more pockets and is slightly bigger and might be better for players having issues with club tangle, especially if they use larger than standard grips. If those features aren’t important to you, I’d go with the S4. I personally like the smaller size.
