I like all three of those carts.  I voted for the Reflex since it folds up small...the Speed V1 is a close second.

I voted for the C130 bag.  I really like the design (cart bag, but with straps/stand).  The vast majority of my rounds are either using a push cart or a riding cart, but it's nice to have for the range or the rare occasion that I walk.  I like 14-way dividers, so there was only one other bag that I'd buy (Four 5).

I voted the Reflex due to how it folds up like that.Also, I like the size of the compartment near the handle. I like that they showed a cell phone fitting in the compartment. 

I voted the Three 5 Bag. It's probably the one I would buy. I like the design of it. I like the strap system as well.

These type of straps always felt more comfortable for me when I am carrying the bag. It tends to equal the weight out more, and doesn't let the straps slip. I had a bag once I had to readjust every few weeks because the straps kept slipping on it.

You forgot a bag and the bag I have so therefore I can't vote. I Have the H2NO and love it with the MC3 Push-Cart and I love it... 

So Erik put the H2NO bag in the choices and I'll vote.

New sponsor? I voted for the C130 bag because it is the only one I have I do like it a lot. The cart I like is the Micro. I use the Reflex. It folds up small but center of gravity points are not as good as the Microcart's. If the brake was on the rear of the Reflex, it would be so much better. It would keep the bag weight on the brake better and stop it from rolling around when stored in a vehicle.

Plus some more thought could go into the storage layout. A huge flaw in the storage is a gap under the hinge area where my phone slips out of at times.

I like the XCR bag, but since I ride 100% of the time, I don't have any preference for any kind of push/pull cart.

I voted for the Three5, its the bag I had previous to my current one.  I was always happy with it, it held enough to take travelling, it was light enough and comfortable enough to carry, and it was sturdy enough to survive pretty well.  I just don't use a trolley, so I didn't vote for any of them.

I'm eyeing the Speed Cart V1 Sport. I usually carry my bag, but lately I've noticed that I've been getting fatigued late in rounds and my scoring is suffering. My shoulder/upper back is getting tight and leading to some lazy/poor swings. Time to switch over to a push cart. This one looks solid.

I don't typically use a push/pull cart.  I voted for the "Micro" because it had the least length when folded.  Ultimately I would want to see how difficult/easy it was to unfold & fold each.

The 2Five was my bag selection.  I walk and carry.  I had heard good things about this bag as far as durability and the capability of efficiently handling a set of clubs.  I am not prepared to pay $200 (yet) for a golf bag.  My Callaway is okay for now but if I decide to splurge or reward myself, the 2Five is on the short list.

The kids took them to NCAA Nationals this past week. They all commented on how good they felt after 18, 36, 54… 72 holes.

A push cart is not just for "old farts." I use one almost every time I walk a golf course.

Four5 Bag / Speed Cart V1 Sport.

I like to carry my bag when the course and weather allow it, and I also like having dividers for all of the clubs in the bag. The lighter weight of the Four5 gives it the edge over the C130 Stand.

I don't have any particular reason for favoring the Speed Cart, beyond that I like the look of it the best, and it comes with the @iacas seal of approval.

In my UnderArmour Links stand bag...

Driver: '07 Burner 9.5° (stiff graphite shaft)
Woods: SasQuatch 17° 4-Wood (stiff graphite shaft)
Hybrid: 4DX Ironwood 20° (stiff graphite shaft)Irons/Wedges: Apex Edge 3-PW, GW, SW (stiff shaft); Carnoustie 60° LWPutter: Rossa AGSI+ Corzina...

I think this is the way to go. No more letting me ego ruin a good game of golf. 

Looks like they are a sponsor of the site, is there a good link I should use so you can affiliate credit for the purchase? The one in the original post?

They aren't technically though I hope they will be through the rest of the year and/or in 2017.

Click any of the ads at the top when they appear.

P.S. The ClubGlider is awesome.

I voted for the Speed Cart and the C130 Bag.  However I have a Speed cart and a Sync bag.  The bottom of the Sync bag is molded to fit the heart shaped piece of the cart. It is a really nice bag with full length dividers plenty of pockets and is designed for the cart. The C130 however is slightly larger and would be the way I would go now if I had a spare $200 sitting around and wanted a new bag.

I really like my MC3 micro cart but I'm thinking the 4-wheel design is not for me. As I said in another thread in this section, if my bag rotates a little the pockets will drag on the wheels; very annoying. In the 3-wheel design I don't think it's possibly to have this problem.

Although I'm thinking of purchasing the C130 bag (not sure on stand vs cart yet... thinking maybe stand bag now). That may alleviate the problem entirely.
