What is the Carbon Collection?
VESSEL's celebrating its 13th anniversary by launching their exclusive Carbon Collection - a premium lineup that's taking luxury golf bags to the next level. They've upgraded their best-selling bags by adding even more carbon fiber throughout. Using Carbitex OmniFlex technology, they've woven carbon fiber into their bags to create an incredibly durable, flexible, and lightweight design that looks stunning.
You'll find some awesome new features that aren't on other VESSEL bags, like a genuine carbon fiber body, a magnetic ball pocket for quick access, and a sleek chrome badge that proves it's authentic. The result? A golf bag that perfectly combines stability, comfort, and smart design for golfers who demand the absolute best.
Top Design
The Player V Pro Carbon 14-way top takes club organization to the next level while keeping things light at just 7.75 pounds. You'll find a dedicated slot for each club, plus offset dividers that make a real difference. Thanks to its clever design, the club heads are staggered, so you can spot and grab exactly what you need. No more hunting around for your 7-iron! The plush velour lining isn't just for looks either - it keeps your club heads safe from scratches and dings as you move around the course. Think of it as a cozy bed for your clubs between shots.
One of the best features is the full-length dividers that run from top to bottom, creating separate channels for each club. You won't have to deal with tangled shafts or clubs getting stuck together anymore. Just grab any club smoothly, every time.
There's also a special putter well that's built to fit modern putters with their bigger grips and unique head shapes. Your putter's always easy to reach when you need it, and it won't bump into other clubs.
Want to get even more organized? The Player V Pro Carbon works with VESSEL's Golf Club Organizer (sold separately). It gives each club its own spot, so you'll know right away if you're missing anything, and your bag stays perfectly organized throughout your round.
Premium Construction

The VESSEL Player V Pro Carbon really stands out from other golf bags with its premium materials. It's the first to feature OmniFlex - a unique carbon fiber textile by Carbitex that takes performance up a notch. What's cool about it? The bag flexes like fabric while giving you all the perks of carbon fiber. It's lightweight but tough too - so you're carrying less weight while still getting a bag that'll last.
The hand-stitched leather handles and zipper pulls aren't just there to look good - they add class and luxury to the bag. The leather feels soft but can handle plenty of use. You'll notice the quality every time you grab the bag or open a pocket. The whole build of the Player V Pro Carbon is incredible. The seams are solid, the zippers work smoothly, and you'll find every pocket right where you need it. VESSEL hasn't cut any corners - they've picked materials that don't just look and feel high-end but actually work better too. When you combine the carbon fiber exterior, genuine leather details, and carbon fiber legs, you end up with a golf bag that works as good as it looks.
Comprehensive Storage
What's a golf bag without storage, wll the VESSEL Player V Pro Carbon has a ton of it. First off, you've got 16 pockets smartly positioned around the bag. These aren't just random compartments - VESSEL has carefully considered what golfers need and where they need it. You'll find pockets for everything from tees and balls to your rangefinder and valuables.
To start, the exclusive magnetic golf ball pocket in the Carbon Collection is pure genius. I love how strong the magnet is, and it's so much easier than messing with zippers to grab a ball. I can't believe VESSEL created such a large magnetic pocket, with internal organization that closes completely flush and holds so securely.
The Player V Pro carbon has both an insulated cooler pocket and two cooler-lined bottle sleeves. I love that you can keep your drinks cold all day, and each pocket has its own drainage so you won't find water pooling at the bottom. The sleeves are really clever too - they've got magnetic snap closures that let them expand or tuck away neatly when you don't need them. That's just brilliant design.
Your rangefinder's got a new home in the Magnetic Rangefinder Pocket. It's got a velour-lined interior with a divider and a strong magnetic closure that keeps your device secure but easy to reach. There's no more fumbling around - you'll find your rangefinder right where you need it every time. Just grab it for a quick yardage check and pop it back in without breaking your rhythm.
The Player V Pro carbon also features a large garment pocket on the side of the bag. This pocket has plenty of space for extra clothes like rain gear, towels, or shoes. On the inside of the garment pocket is the interior lock pocket. As the name implies, this pocket is ideal for storing valuables such as your keys, wallet, phone, and other essential items. This pocket, too, is lined with antimicrobial velour and comes with a combination lock. While on the outside of the garment pocket is the exterior valuables pocket,which too is velour lined and includes a key hook. Above the garment pocket is the quick access magnetic side pocket, which is also velour-lined and a perfect spot to store things like your smartphone or golf GPS.
Next up is the Bottom Side Accessories pocket. This pocket is perfect for storing things like golf tees and ball markers. But one of my favorite new features has to be the cart strap pass-through, with a matching cart strap sleeve. Now, I have only seen this with cart bags, but this is so awesome. If you've ever used a cart, you know how annoying it can be when the straps mess up your bag's pockets. This clever feature lets you secure your bag to the cart without blocking access to your gear. Just brilliant. It's all of these small touches that make a big difference during your round.
Other features include a matching rain hood, velcro glove tab, pen holder, dual-purpose bottle opener or towel ring, and umbrella holder.

Ergonomic Design
A stand bag isn't worth much if it's not comfortable to carry, right? That's where VESSEL's Player V Pro carbon shines with its Equilibrium 2.0 Double Strap system. After lots of research and testing, they've created a solution that fixes the usual problems you'd find with regular carry straps.
The heart of the Equilibrium 2.0 is its 8-point swivel mechanism. This clever design lets the straps adjust automatically as you walk, moving with your body's natural motion. You won't have to keep fiddling with the straps or deal with sore shoulders anymore.
They've also positioned the strap attachments higher up on the bag, near the top. This smart move creates better balance and spreads the weight evenly across your shoulders and back, making those long rounds much easier on your body. Plus, this balanced setup keeps your bag stable while you walk, so your clubs won't keep falling out - especially helpful when you're tackling hills or taking the bag on and off frequently.
You can easily adjust the Equilibrium 2.0 system to fit your body and carrying style perfectly. Whether you like using both shoulders or prefer slinging it over one, these straps will work with you. The straps are shaped to fit your body comfortably, with padding and moisture-wicking materials to keep you cool and dry. And here's a neat feature - quick-release buckles make it super easy to take the bag on and off, even when you're wearing a glove.

Stability and Support
The most impressive feature of VESSEL stand bags is their patented Rotator Stand System. This innovative design provides incredible stability through its flex activation technology, so the legs deploy smoothly every time. We've all dealt with stand bags tipping over - it's super frustrating. But you won't have this problem with the Player V Pro carbon, thanks to the Rotator Stand System's wide, low-profile base. When the legs are out, the base sits flat on the ground, creating a rock-solid foundation. You can forget about your bag falling over or sliding around, even on slopes.
Here's another cool feature - the jam-resistant base. Ever had your club grips get stuck at the bottom of your bag when the legs are extended? The Player V Pro's smart bottom divider design keeps your grips from catching, so you can pull out your clubs smoothly every time.
The ultra-lightweight carbon fiber legs give you all the support you need when setting up your bag, without adding extra weight to lug around the course. Let's face it - when you're walking 18 holes, every ounce matters, and VESSEL has clearly put a lot of thought into making this bag as light as possible while keeping it tough.
