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?

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.

I'm a big fan of the Ogio bags, either the Grome or the Ozone.

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

I seriously doubt that you have 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.

Is it better to have a bag with 14 full length club dividers?

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.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
