What is the best lightweight stand bag in your opinion?

Another nice feature of the bag, the big pockets are removable. So if you are like me, I only carry the basic essentials --- ball, tees, drink, you could detach these pockets to lighten the load a bit.

Also, the 4 point strap is well padded, making the bag comfortable.

While trying to put together the ultimate Mizuno fanboy setup, I looked long and hard at the Twister because the concept was intriguing. I found that for my clubs there's not enough room. Even with the pockets empty the clubs were more difficult to remove / replace than they should have been. I went with a second four5 ('11 version) mainly because of the way it's balanced. The way the Twister's balanced (or rather not balanced), it seems made for shorter clubs (like for juniors maybe?). When full, the clubheads make it want to topple to the left and fall out. Maybe the one I demoed was a dud though?!?

I bought a new four-5 and having the full dividers for each club is really nice.  But it does have a lot of pockets and can get heavy if you keep stuffing it.  The new four 5 is "cart friendly" also

Water ? Who needs water ?

Mizuno finally remembered ----- Twister has a water bottle holder. now...not insulated though....but big enough to put 2 small bottles in there.

Anyone remember the Ping Pencil? The one with the legs? That was a great bag.

I have the Ergonomix 10-way bag from Walmart. It was $40, it's really light and the legs spread wide. It has a water bottle pocket, a smallish front pocket, medium side pocket, large side pocket and a little valuables pocket on the side.

I just got the QODA Quan and really like it. I’ve only seen them at Dick’s and on Amazon.
I walk most rounds, so I looked at many stand bag options. The QODA Quan is extremely light and the double strap has a center pivot system I’ve never seen before and it works great. Smart pocket designs and very springy legs made this my choice.

I just bought the Adidas AG Tour Pro stand bag. It weighs 6lbs, but looks like a tour bag, but has a stand. It is purrrty. ;-)
