What are people's opinions on the best stand bag for overall use?

I had a Ping Hoofer for 13 years that I liked a lot. Now I have a Titleist X86 that I like even better. It is much lighter than the old hoofer. What do you want out of your bag? Be super light? Have 14 full length club dividers?


+1 on the Titleist X86

My x86 has a beverage slot. It works great. I got the yellow/blue/charcoal bag. My wife is making me headcovers to match the bag. She has the driver done and it looks sweet.

Headcovers that match your bag?! Now I've heard it all.

Sorry shades, you are correct... I have not heard it all. What I was implying is the ridiculousness of having headcovers that match your bag.

That is up to you. The bag will certainly be heavier. I don't feel it is necessary. My bag has 6 full length dividers. I rarely have any problems with getting clubs out and back in.

How is it ridiculous? To each his own I guess...

Completely up to the individual and their personal preference. Some people like that it keeps all of the clubs separated and therefor less likely to bang into each other while others claim that it's easier to take them out and put them away. Totally up to what you like.

At the beginning of the summer I went to Dicks for a new stand bag. I found every bag that looked good and lined them up. I checked out the pockets, zippers, dividers, stand legs, and anything else I could find and slowly removed bags that didn't do what I wanted them to do. I finally settled on 4 different bags. So i grabbed a set of irons off the wall and a few woods, a dozen balls and a bunch of accessories and loaded the bags up. In the end the most comfortable was the Ogio Grom with the Nike Sasquatch a very close second.

    • You DO realize that all of your prior posts in this thread are still there for folks to read?  Put the shovel down. As to best player not to have won the career grand slam, ever hear of a fellow named Sam Snead?  Or Arnold Palmer?  Or Phil Mickelson?  Or Lee Trevino?  All-time greats who were never able to complete this.  Because it's hard, and not doing it doesn't really say anything about greatness.  Or "demons".  Or being "jacked".
    • I know I’m really resurrecting this thread but what do you guys think of Jason Day’s style of dead hand wedge from say 30-90 yards. You can start with a fairly vertical shaft so it still uses the bounce I think. Is speed the limiting factor here because of the lack of wrists, or would the feel of dead hands actually cause lag on the downswing and actually end up using more leading edge than bounce anyway.  I just wonder would it be easier for distance control in terms of backswing length.  Any opinions on it?
    • Day 278: did a stack session. 
    • Day 206 - 2025-04-24 Got some good partial wedge work in today. Same stuff as the full swing, but I can see why I was trying to do something a bit different.
