The present invention generally relates to golf bags having a lightweight and durable top frame can be made of a lightweight metal and can have different structures. The lightweight top frame assembly can have handle and leg sub-assemblies. Three-dimensional printing methods can be used to form structures in the top frame having various shapes and geometric patterns, for example, a lattice having a top frame (cuff) with club dividers. The walls of the top cuff can be made of a lightweight metal and can have a sidewall, open loop, closed loop, or other structure. The top cuff includes club dividers for storing and organizing clubs in different compartments. The club dividers can be made of a cord material.
