I love my OGIO edge, The various OGIO organizers are worth studying. I like the WOODE and the UNITER looks good too. TGW has a sale on OGIOS. I ordered a Titleist Premium Stand bag and was so disappointed in it I took it back to TGW and they showed me the OGIO Edge, I am glad they did.

If you've already narrowed it down to those 2, my instincts are to go with the Sun Mountain. I've never read a thread where someone is complaining about the durability of their Sun Mountain bag.

I also like the little feet on the SM. They help it stand up on it's own before you've secured it to the cart.

I think Sun Mountian makes some of the the bags for Titleist (stand bags I know) so you may be looking at the same OEM either way.

The Sun Mountian stuff has the grip on the top which I want on my next bag but I want stand bag. On a cart bag you aren't taking it on and off your shoulder enough to need the top grip but it's still good to have in my opinion.

Just looking at pictures and reading a bit about them on the web I say the Sun Mountian out of those two.

Good luck.
In the bag:
905R 9.5° - UST ProForce V2 65R
909F2 15.5° Titleist Diamana 75
909H 19° Titleist Diamana 80

I'm a bit biased (Sun Mountain owner since ~ 1991), but the angle of the top of the bag makes more sense to me - based on visuallizing the retrieval of clubs while the bag is strapped onto a power cart.

Wilson make beautiful bags...

I noticed all the bags above including the OP's two are 14 way full dividers, why? I intentionally avoided the full dividers, why do you like them?

Callaway has the best customer service department of any of the OEMs.That is why I use only Cally stuff.I have had problems with several bag companies over the years and Callaway has ALLWAYS stood behind what they sell.OGIO and Taylormade are not very high on customer service Titliest and Wilson have been fine over the years.I have been using Cally everything for the last 5 years because of this.Been playing for 30 years and have moved through 5 or 6 brands of clubs and bags but have settled on Callaway.

I'm not even sure if Sun Mountain has a customer service department (never needed it), but I'm pretty sure they don't make clubs. Most of my clubs are used, but even for the ones I've purchased new, I got them at a golf shop, so I couldn't comment on those OEM customer service departments either.

I have never owned a Sun Mountain cart bag.The Stand bags they make are very good except they seem to not hold all the junk I carry in my bag.They seem hell bent on making the lightest bag out there which I quess is a good thing but like I said I carry most of my basement in my bag.

I have really enjoyed my c-130 these past two months. The layout is super. I was highly impressed with the unreal storage yet very light weight.

It is holding up nicely.

The top handles are super!!! I keep my sticks in the house and the top handles make navigating through the house a breeze. My wife used to get aggitated whenever I'd bump around with my other bags.

Myriad of color optons as well as many NCAA bags available with the C-130.

I have had 2 Ogio stand bags in the past (Edge and Grom), and the legs were not working properly within a few months of buying the bag. My plan is to avoid Ogio bags from now on.
