Anyone own(ed) one of these Silencer bags? In the market for a new and wondering if these are built well? Does the silencer dividing system hold up?

TIA.

This is what the divider looks like...

I have used Ogio cart bags with the Silencer technology for the last three years and the Silencer portion of the bag held up great.  The older version of the Silencer used a spring like ball holder which didn't hold up well, especially if you tried to put too many balls in it.  The newest Silencer like you have shown above went away from the spring and back to a zipper which is much better.

The Silencer feature holds your clubs tight if you use a standard, midsize or larger grip.  I have turned the bag completely upside down and none of the clubs fell out.   The other major difference with the new model is the putter well.  The old Silencer had a slot similar to the the other clubs to hold the putter and was a little too tight if you used Super Stroke or similar putter grips.  The new bags have a well that accommodates thick putter grips but it does not secure the putter so you have to keep your putter cover on to prevent it from moving around and hitting your other clubs.  

I never used iron covers but with the Silencer feature you can take all the covers of your woods and go 4 wheeling and you'll never hear the clubs bang around and you'll never have any club chatter.
