I know you are being a comic but plain black cart bags like that are getting harder to find and expensive when you do.

Would you be willing to trade your bag for mine? I have a slightly used Trojan Condoms Staff Bag – it comes replete with the reservoir-tip rain hood.

I think I would pass on that bag: We have a few golfers at my home club that like to spark up a joint just after the turn. If they see me walking around carrying a giant snickers bar, I may be in for a low speed chase.

I am sure you have done so- but if you google this, you'll see this bag has sold in the past on ebay for around $300. It should be numbered as they were only 500 made, and this bag should be numbered on the brass plaque on the front.

I can state as a FACT that this bag has virtually no value.  The Snickers name on it actually DEVALUES it. The blue base colour devalues it even further to virtually zero dollars.

You can take that information from a person who has spent 25 years dealing in antiques and collectables.

Shorty, I have read some of your threads/posts and you obviously know nothing about golf and you have a hidden hatred towards the USA.  So go piss off mate.  Why would anyone fear being laughed at over a golf bag?  Golf is all about laughing and having fun.  If you can't do that, then maybe you should go back to collecting beanie babies and 18th century silver spoons.  Gee, I guess those exploding golf balls are worthless because everyone will fear being laughed at....LOL!!

Would you care to elaborate?  It's easy to make a blanket accusation - how about some evidence to support your assertion?

Seems that you are a bit narky because your serious demands for information regarding the worth of a Snickers golf bag were not treated seriously.

I would consider myself very knowledgeable about the game of golf  -  and have a very high regard for the USA. Like most thinking Americans I have contempt for some of the policies of some of your past leaders, but I certainly wouldn't condemn a great nation on that basis. Most of the Americans I have met on my numerous trips to the USA have been wonderful people, too.  And the ones I encounter here in Australia are mostly terrific people too.  To categorise me as a "hater" of the USA is unfair and implies a bit of over sensitivity on your part. You should see some of the morons we have had in government over the last couple of decades.  Doesn't make me hate my own country.  That wouldn't be fair.  And it's unfair for you to categorise me.

I don't think I'm alone on this forum for having contempt for fundamentalist Christians, believers in Power Band "technology" and gun culture.

If you read my posts you'll find that I occasionally become a bit grumpy when people start threads where they demand information about things that they could easily find for themselves without even a "please" or a "thankyou".  I occasionally have a dig at people who think that the rules of golf are there to be ignored at one's own convenience, as well as those who slavishly think that certain manufacturers' equipment imply class and  prestige  - even "heritage".

I have been rapped over the knuckles on a few occasions by admin for being a little on the "negative" side regarding certain posts, and I have accepted that readily.

It is clear to me that Australian and American golfing culture is quite different - and that is a thing to celebrate, not to attack or ignore. I would venture even to say that a few of my posts have been criticised due to misunderstanding - but that's OK, we have thick skins downunder, and I have learnt to moderate my venom occasionally (That was a joke).

I have never said that golf shouldn't be "fun" and In case you didn't notice it, my posts in this particular thread were an ironic response to your pious and dismissive remarks towards other posters.  To elaborate on that, you seemed to seriously think that someone would know the value of a Snickers golf bag and that that person would have to own one.  One or two have been offered for sale and not sold.  Because someone offered one for $300 dollars does not mean they are worth that.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

The point is none of those things belong in this section of the forum, so everyone involved in this should kindly step back and either stop participating in this thread or should get this thread back to the original topic. Given the original topic, I'm guessing the more likely choice is to simply abandon this thread.

To everyone - because, frankly, I saw the first picture in this thread when it was posted and haven't done anything but skim the thread when it comes up with new posts, so I don't know "who started it" or anything - cool it.

Guess it depends on where you're from ...

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mars (also Mars bar ) is a chocolate bar manufactured by Mars, Inc . It was first manufactured in Slough , Berkshire in the United Kingdom in 1932 as a sweeter version of the American Milky Way bar which Mars, Inc. produced in the USA (not to be confused with the European version of Milky Way, which is a different confection and similar to the US 3 Musketeers ).

In the United States, a different confection bears the Mars bar name. Featuring nougat, caramel, and almonds coated in milk chocolate, the American Mars bar was relaunched in 2010 after being discontinued in 2002.

It sure does. In Canada, we've had Mars bars pretty much my whole life. There was never a point in time when they were unavailable (old sstock perhaps?) and only relatively recently was there a version with almonds - the one in the beige wrapper.

The "original version", in the black wrapper, was one of the few chocolate bars people with nut allergies could safely eat.

I cant say that Id buy it but I would definitely rock it. If I were going to buy a staff bag and this one was sitting right next to a (misc. golf brand) bag and this one was even 10 dollars cheaper then I would get this. It would probably get a pretty good laugh. Not at me but with me depending on if the person was a D-bag or not.

      Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out.

      Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though.

      Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By pganapathy ·

      I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
