Hi all.

I'm looking for a stand up style bag that is light weight, has compartments that include a drink compartment that is like a mini cooler, a compartment for my range finder, and a compartment that will hold a roll of club face tape, and balls and tees. Most importantly, I want to make sure I get one that has legs that continue to work over time. If you have recommendations I appreciate it.

I've owned Ping bags my entire golfing career (20ish years?). Usually everything else wears out before the leg mechanism fails, so I'll keep them for 5-6 years. I just replaced my last Ping bag with a Sun Mountain (Four 5, red/black) bag and I've heard nothing but great things about their quality. And from what some people tell me, Sun Mountain was the first bag to offer legs, so I suppose that's good for something eh? The Four 5 has a little bit of a cooler pouch and a bunch of pockets, including a pocket for your watch and other scratch-able stuff lined with felt.

I have had a few stand bags over the years, Callaway, Ping and Titliest.

i changed at the end of last year to a Sasquatch, has to be the best stand bag I have ever owned, not only is it great quality but has a compartment for everything you would ever need on the golf course.

The schoolteacher was taking her first golfing lesson. "Is the word spelt p-u-t or p-u-t-t?" she asked the instructor. "P-u-t-t is correct," he replied. "Put means to place a thing where you want it. Putt means merely a vain attempt to do the same thing."

i had a problem with ogio once. legs were popping out form the top of the bag sometimes. had the bag since I started playing golf. had it for almost 2 years and couldnt take the legs anymore. went over to roger dunn to get a new bag. worker asked me why i was getting a new bag and I explained it to him. he told me to bring in the bag and i could get a new one from ogio for free. shocked, I went to my car and brought it in. 3 days later, ogio gives me a new ogio grom bag. which I love!! can't complain. ogio has warrenty for a year I believe, but I had the bag for almost 2 and they still replaced it no charge. I know you want a bag which the legs always work. and that is pretty much any bag. just thought I tell my story since it relates. I will always go ogio cause it is a great golf bag. and they treated me great by giving me a new golf bag. no questions asked. yay

golf is a lot like life. the more you enjoy it, the better off you are. a3_biggrin.gif

No problems with my Titleist bag's legs. I've wanted a Ping bag but I'm weary since the couple guys I know that use their stand bags both have bent legs.

I used an Ogio for a couple of years and its legs broke up many times. Luckily I have a friend in local golf store so he got me a pair of legs a few times. (note to self: don't ever buy an Ogio) Now I have this Titleist X86 lightweight bag, which is superb. The legs feel good and it's a quality bag in every possible way.

+1 for Titleist

Everyone that is giving a postive review for a Titleist bag is just supporting Sun Mountain because they make all of the Titleist bags...if you look closely they are very similar.

Anyway to the OP, I have owned quite a few stand bags over the years (all of the ones mentioned so far on this thread) and the best performing bag that I have owned is the SM Four 5...if you buy a 2011 model it will even work well when on a golf cart...good luck with whatever you decide.

My Ping Hoofer is probably 10 - 12 years old. Bag is still flawless. Legs work perfectly. I keep wanting to replace it with a Titleist or Sun Mountain. I just can't get myself to spend money that is not necessary since the current bag works just fine.

I have a Sun Mountain MPB and love it.  It has all the compartments I need along with a cooler compartment.  The legs work flawlessly and you have the option of zipping them up of you choose to use a cart.

    • Day 48. Got out at lunch to the range to hit some driver shots. Haven’t had much practice there. Focused on setup suggested by @iacas and found some very playable results. I did try to hit a couple of bunker shots after that with much less success 🙃
    • Got a rare birdie on #18 Par 5.  Drive was good and left me in range of the green.  I was @ 210 from the center and needed @ 180 to clear a hazard area.  Green had bunkers lest, right and on back. had been struggling and most shots were short so I took the 225 club figuring back of green hit well. i did hit it well, @ 229 per SS and dead on—kind at the pin.  Ended up @ 1 foot off the back in short rough and lucky for me it was a back pin placement.  Chipped about 15 feet leaving a 3 feet putt for par which I sunk.  
    • Yea, so to clarify for me. I do not feel the clubface much in the swing. I feel the weight of the club. I can feel if I hit the club off the heel or toe. When I try to feel if the clubface is open or closed in the swing, I feel it more with my hands, and less of the clubhead. I would classify majority of my swings as not feeling like the clubface does much of all. It feels like I hold the clubface open. In the finish, it doesn't feel like my left hand faces the ground. It feels more like it faces the sky. I will try to be more aware of this, but it was just the sensation I got when I was making what felt like good swings. For the most part, I was hitting slight draws or slight pushes.  On this golf trip, I had to hit a low 8 iron around a tree to the green. I made an alignment adjustment, and actively try to roll my hands a bit more to get it to sling around the corner. I do have a habit of not adjusting how the clubface comes through impact, and I can still hit the ball straight-ish even moving the ball way back in my stance and trying to swing out more.  Yea, my feels are more hands and arms, less actually feeling the clubface.
