Played in a tourney yesterday and won the white/silver Mizuno Rider Cart Bag (below) for closest to the pin.  I immediately thought that I didn't need another bag and started to price it for selling...but as it sits in my family room staring at me the look is starting to grow on me a bit.  I really like the external putter well and although I tend to prefer darker colors the white/silver is sharp.  Does anyone have experience with this bag?  If so, how do you like it - is it worth keeping and using with my speedcart V2?  I figure I would only get $100 for it...appreciate any feedback on this bag.

i like that bag a lot. companies keep churning out bags with the same lackluster colors: black, red, green, blue. the brighter colors look great because they look different.

I decided to keep it and used it this afternoon...worked well.  Pockets were very accessible, good sized and the cooler pocket is massive.  The external putter well is also awesome.

I like the looks of that bag! I believe I would hang onto it too.

On another note, I must play in some pretty cheap tournaments. I've  never seen a prize that nice for closest to the pin!

I have won a few long drives and closest to the pins and this is by far the best prize I've picked up so far!

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
