I am purchasing AP1s soon and they need a new home, I was between two stand bags. My choices were either Titleist Lightweight Stand Bag or the Ping Hoofer Vantage. I know both will be great bags but would like some feedback. I'm aware of the great reputation of the Hoofer and would like to delve but would appreciate some opinions before I decide.

In My Ping Hoofer 3 Team Bag:
Driver - R9 460 with Aldila ReAx 60 g
3 Wood - :titleist 909f2 with Aldila Voodoo Stiff
Hybrid - 585H 19 degree with Graphite Design YS 85
Irons - AP1 4-PW with TTDGHL S300 Wedges - Vokey SM Tour Chrome 54.11 & 58.08 Putter - Circa 62 No. 3 Ball - ProV1...

I'm interested in feedback on these also, but also curious what people think about the Ogio Vaporlite.

I currently have a Hoofer (circa 1996) and its finally time to give in to a new bag. Its my old high school bag with team name and logo all over it, and its time to move on I figure ;). It's actually in really good shape for a bag thats seen 500+ rounds.

Whats in my Four5....

Generally speaking, Ogio makes quality bags. I've not played with the Vaporlite specifically, but I had an Edge for awhile and it was a nice bag. I ended up swapping it for a Nike Sasquatch this past Fall for the individual club compartments.

Ogio makes good bags, I had a Ozone standing in the check out and decided I liked the Mizuno bag better so I orded that.

I had an ogio earlier in the year but the legs were crap-tastic so I took it back. But I believe it was just the particular model I bought.

I have also been looking around at a new stand bag. I currently have the Nike Sasquatch as well because of the individual pockets and I have been looking to see if there was a bag any better and lighter out there.

For my opinion on the Sasquatch bag, I really like it. At times it feels a bit heavy but that is probably due to me filling it full of crap. It has plenty of pockets and so far the legs have held up well.

This. My Sasquatch stand bag is my favorite piece of equipment. it fits on carts ok, and is perfect for everything else I want it for: 14 way divider, light, great shoulder straps, legs pop out well, looks fantastic. Its about 170 new but you can find old models (different colors) for 1/2 that. I rant and rave about my bag to every golfer I know.

Quick related question, I found a Taylormade MAG F1 stand bag on sale for $99, but it weights 10 lbs, Seems a bit heavy for a stand bag... is it worth it or will the weight get to me?

Does anyone use the Founder Club 13 eay stand bag?

If you walk that is alot of weight. A few pounds makes a huge difference. I have an old titleist walking bag. The bigger version, it is nice, but I wish I bought the LW version.

I would get the lightest possible bag if you are walking. You can find a really nice lightwieght walking bag for that or less.

I love my vapor lite.

The only downside is, its starting to show some wear and its only a year old-but I am at the course at least 5 days a week and I really don't go out of my way to baby anything. Its got plenty of pockets for walking, and I will never again buy a bag that doesn't have a water bottle holder I can easily reach while walking.

In my Vaporlite Bag
Driver: Hireko PowerPlay Q2 10.5*

Irons: 804 OS 4-PWWedges: 52* Vintage Forged 54* Vokey Spin-Milled 58* Vokey Raw Putter: Crossbax 2.0Ball: Gamer or D2 Feel

    • When does a 'non-conforming' club become just another piece of metal or plastic?
    • Day 353: mirror work again today. Working on the same stuff - wrist twist and shaft lean. 
    • This is my second year playing golf, I started last season but have always struggled with a slice. I've tried multiple things to try and fix the slice: Closing the face. Rotating my right hand out or clockwise in the grip. Keeping the club head low in my back swing. Focusing on a straight swing path. Trying the straighter arms like Bryson D. (as seen in the videos above) Trying to not let me hips get too far ahead of my down swing. Trying to keep my shoulders down until after I've made contact with the ball. Etc. I recently changed to the straighter arms which has helped me adjust away from such a drastic slice. So it has helped a bit. Before that, I was trying to keep the club head low in the back swing and this was the most helpful in correcting the slice, however it drastically removed power and distance in the strikes and would even sometimes result in a hook. About a couple months ago I had a single lesson with my driver and learned some helpful things, but have since struggled to perform what I learned well. One of the things in the lesson was to keep my shoulder down more in the the down swing until after making contact with the ball. This would help the slice a bit, sometimes drawing the ball. To even it out, I was instructed to rotate my hips a bit earlier in the down swing. What I have noticed however with the earlier hip rotation is that it's really hurting my lower back a lot. Since backing off on that it's helped not injure my low back as much. I believe my main issue might possibly be the swing path, being a Pull Slice.   See above, was mid typing when you posted. I have never watched Moe Norman's swing to be honest. I have never measure my hip rotation, but I'd like to hear your thoughts on that after you read about my hip rotation / back pain issue.
    • Two questions… Are you trying to swing like Moe Norman? What's your hip turn like? Have you ever measured it?
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 2 years My current handicap index or average score is: 18 Index My typical ball flight is: Slice/Fade with a driver and FW. Generally straight with irons, varies some days left or right. The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Driver slice. Videos:
