I'm very disappointed in my Ogio Vector bag. It's well designed and functional, but despite the entire bag being in very good shape and only 3 seasons old, the seams are tearing out of 2 pockets. It hasn't seen very heavy use as it's for a 2nd set of clubs.

I'm now looking to replace it. I mostly ride, but would like something lightweight and with legs and good straps for when I do carry it.

I'm not sure I'll get Ogio again after this experience.

I'd appreciate suggestions.

Thanks.

Well that's interesting. My Ogio had issues like that also. Loved the bag, didn't like the workmanship.

Look at Ping. That's what I replaced it with.

I have a Ping Hoofer Vantage with the dual retraction strap.  I love this bag and have had it for 5 years now.  It is still in great shape (the only thing with it is cosmetic due to the fading color from being in the sun so much... which I don't really care about).

Unfortunately they don't make this bag anymore and it will suck having to find a new one as well made when the time comes.  Maybe the other bags in the Ping line will measure up, but I haven't really looked at them since I'm not in the market.  It might be worth starting there!

Good luck!

I'm all about the Sun Mountain four5 . . . until it rains. If you play in rain, this is not your bag. Even with years of experience using an umbrella, that four5 is sopping wet after a few holes. My old (really old) Sun Mountains weren't like that. If the PING bags are more water resistant, I'd certainly go that route.

Sun Mountain.

Plus, you're not advertising what clubs you may or may not have with a Sun Mountain - another reason to like it.

Ping has been up and down, up and down as to its bags. Ogio - had a couple fall apart. Just say no.

I recently bought a Cobra GT Stand Bag. If you want a lighter option try the Sport stand.

I bought mine from ebags on a sale for only $140 something, so I had to have it. I was debating over the GT and the Sport. The stap on both of them is really nice, and they are extremely sturdy

Thanks for the replies all. Gonna go bag shopping this week.

Only one suggestion - Sun Mountain. But be sure you like the look of the one you buy because you are going to own it for a long time. Great quality and lots of models to choose from. Their four five or new hybrid model may be what you're looking for.

In my Sun Mountain 14 Way Stand Bag:

Driver - Ping G30 10.5* : Fairway - Ping G30 18* : Hybrids - Titleist 915H 21* & 915 H 24* : Irons - Mizuno JPX 850 Forged 5 - GW : Wedges, Vokey 54.14, Vokey 58.12 : Putter - Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 or Ping Craz-E-R  : Ball - Bridgestone B330RX, Cart - Cliqgear 3.5

    • Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.
    • It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
    • It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
