I recently picked up a vintage Ping Hoofer Lite carry bag. I am not sure how old it is but estimate it is probably from around 2012 or so? I cannot figure out how to adjust the straps! I am going to try to attach a picture of the bag and will also describe it below. I cannot figure out how to adjust the straps in a way that makes the bag comfortable to carry. The bag also seems to want to be more upright/ vertical than how you would normally carry a bag like this. I have tried to search this site and others on the web but almost all info is on the newer ping Hoofer bags which have quite a different design. The bag is pretty minimal in terms of pockets and has no handle on the top. It has 2 backpack straps that are not connected to each other. They are connected to the top of the bag and in the middle of the bag above the primary ball/ gear pocket. Any feedback appreciated, thanks for your help!

Thanks for the excellent feedback. I wanted to give you a few more pertinent facts. Ron walked from the tee towards the hole which was the location of the drop zone - probably about 55-70 yards from the tee. He played his provisional from the drop zone which i now understand was incorrect.

I was on the course with 2 other buddies. We’ve played together for many years and typically like to have some wagers on the course. We were playing a par 3 over water. There was a sign at the tee box which read "Local Rule: Golfers hitting into the water must proceed to the drop area." Ron hit his shot. It appeared to be headed towards the bank on the far side of the water (near the hole) - - there was no visible splash, nor the sound of hitting water, but instead an audible thud or thump, as of a ball hitting turf. No one claimed to see the exact location of the ball, where it had thudded, or where it came to rest. After all players hit from the tee box, we moved onward to play the hole. Ron, upon arriving at the drop area, said, "Hold up a minute, I need to hit a provisional." This shot was hit, nicely, landing on the green near the hole. Ron then made a cursory look for their ball and determined he would play the provisional. Another player, prior to Ron playing his provisional ball, then located Ron’s original ball, in the rough-fringe area bordering the water (where the mowers couldn't really mow.) There were no red stakes outlining the water hazard or edge. The lie was not good. The first drive had not plugged (which would have been inconsistent with the heard thud anyway), but had nestled down into to some long but dried almost hay-like type of growth. The most probable occurrence was that the ball had landed on good turf a short bit past the water, and rolled back a bit, either due to back-spin or the incline of the turf rising from the water toward the putting green on higher ground. The ball's lie made it extremely difficult to play, and Ron probably would have to move it a club length and take a stroke to play it. At this point the third player said, "Whoa, wait a minute. You've got to play your first ball." So, the question is, which ball is Ron supposed to play ? The group could not agree. Ron played his provisional and lied 3 on the green but tempers flared.
