I think we're all a little OCD if we are here… lol. As I stated, it is the extent of our OCD … and from your response, you "get it." I was once Mr. Anal Retentive about everything; but I've overcome it… Glad you are far from OCD about dinging … I don't like the clanging either - it's why I use a towel.

I lack the organization gene - so slots don't work for me … besides that fact I carry a couple of drivers and training aids.

I don't think it's OCD to not want the grips to lock into each other as we put the clubs away, or have the clubs make a clacking sound as we walk the course.

Plus, it ruins the finish on some of the irons... :-X

What about just putting 14 tubes in a regular bag? Or does that get too heavy?

If you don't walk the weight wouldn't be a real concern, right?

No it wouldn't but seeing as how I always walk...

I tried it and had no issue carrying them. But if you have graphite shafts, over time, t ube top rubs against shaft and damages paint and even shaft. Once I realized what was happening, I've made some adjustments so that tube top do not rub against shaft.

I have the 14-way SM Hybrid bag for when I ride or push and the 4-way SM Three 5 bag for when I walk. When walking will watch out for the hit a 6 when I thought it was a 9 catastrophe!

i have a 6 compartment bad and i'd love to get the 14. i think it just keeps you more organized and looks so much better. i've made the 6 iron or 9 iron mistake before but acutally hit the ball and didn't realize until my shot didn't go as far as i had hoped. whoops.

I'm not a fan if the 14 divider bags. It may be from the many summers I spent caddying as a kid, that organizing a bag with 3, 4, or 6 slots is like second nature.

I play with a 14 way Titleist bag and love it. I always know where every club is and with my OCD  its important I have everything in number order. My GF is also just taking up golf and I have expressed the importance of an empty slot meaning you left your club somewhere on the course...Same with headcovers, always cover woods back up so I know where everything is...

I would never go back to anything else. The 14 way divider is awesome.. For me it's all about the organization and te fact that the grips don't wear and rub at all. I suggest the Ping DLX cart bag... Great quality and looks very sharp.

I'm one of the odd ones apparently.  I bought a 14 divider TM bag, used it 1 time and gave it to my son.  I just did not like it.  I prefer the 6 slot bag.

Bag: Titleist
Driver: TM RBZ 9.5
Fairway metals: TM RBZ 3 wood
Hybrids: TM RBZ 3, 4 and 5
Irons: TM Burner 1.0 6 thru LW stiff steel shafts
Putter: Ping B60
Ball: TM Tour Preferred X or ProV1x

My friend has the same views, I don't really get it but to each their own I guess. I just found that I was getting my grips redone twice a year from all the grinding they would do.

I actually tore a sizable piece out of a soft putter grip mid round when I carried a stand bag with 4 dividers due to grips sticking together. Every time I pulled a club I had to yank on it.

I just picked up a Titilest 14 slot carry bag. I am looking forward to trying it out. I do not like less than 14 for sure.

Does it have a separate putter well? My ping bag has one and I'm loving it.
