Anyone using the Nike Pro Combo Tour Stand Bag?

in searching for a bag.....i think bags are bags.....you throw your clubs in them and carry them with you.....beauty is in the eyes and hands of the beholder.....what is beautiful to me might be awful to you.....what is functional to me may not be for you.....what weighs like a feather to me maybe heavy for you........find the bag that you fall in love with......see it for it's functionality......pick it up yourself to see how heavy the bag is.....maybe with your clubs in it also......and buy it if it fits right in your eyes....

holla!

I agree with you to an extent, but I can't see, feel, touch this bag before I order it!

I can get it for $90 though...so that might make my decision easier. (cool)

i saw this bag in person a few weeks back after i got my hoofer bag. it looks good in the pics but horrible in person (material looks/feels cheap). i'm glad i purchased my hoofer vantage over this. it also felt considerably heavier as well.

Was it the Pro Combo Tour, or the Pro Combe Xtreme Sport? I've seen the Xtreme Sport, and would agree. The Pro Combo Tour is just now starting to come out in stores though (Golfsmith won't even have them until 12/18).

it was the pro combo tour. and the bag has been out here in so cal since the first week of november.

Interesting, I looked up the weight on the Vantage and they are exactly the same. Does the Nike really feel heavier?

If I didn't really feel that it was heavier, would I have made the statement "it also felt considerably heavier as well" publicly? -.-

I actually like this bag a lot. The pockets, color scheme, stitching, legs, etc., etc. are all VERY good looking in person. I'm not 100% on the 14 individual dividers yet, even though they are very good, just would take some getting used to for me.

The new Pro Combo Tour and Sasquatch Tour bags have bumped a few Ogio's and Sun Mountain's from my list of bags to get.

I don't know...woud you? I guess I'm inclined to go with the notion that 5.5lbs=5.5lbs, and that the fact it was heavier was all in your head.

here are two more realistic photos of what it looks like in real life (as opposed to a marketing picture)

Cool, thanks for the pics. I personally like that look!

5.5 lbs is indeed 5.5 lbs there's no argument on that. however if you carried 5.5 lbs on a rope and if you carried 5.5 lbs held up against your body, i'm willing to bet it would FEEL heavier. i never stated it was indeed for a fact heavier since there is considerable debate as to the actual weight of the hoofer vantage bag. for whatever it's worth, the pro combo tour bag (in navy, white grey) was going to be my bag of choice for the winter and 2007 year and the vantage was going to be resold into the market. but after seeing and feeling the bag, it wasn't worth the price tag to me. in my opinion, it's pretty much a souped up xtreme sport bag with 14 dividers and the air straps. btw, if you somehow get the notion that i'm anti-swoosh (although that would be tough considering my avatar), i'm clearly not. in fact i own close to 100 pairs of nike footwear as well as about half my wardrobe is labeled with my swoosh. so i'm quite the swoosh advocate. but this bag on appearance alone in my opinion was a severe disappointment (as opposed to dlefty who seems to love his).

LOL...no worries bro, I was just messing with you!

I just have a buddy who is going to the Nike employee store this Saturday, so I'm going to have to just pull the trigger and hope for the best. 50% off of everything, man I couldn't work for Nike!

BTW, did you happen to see the grey one vs. the red one? I need to pick between those two.

yes. personally i found the reds on this bag to be almost an orange-red color. definitely not the typical "varsity red" on most nike products. of the two, i preferred the grey.

Thanks for the photos. That is one seriously ugly bag, very different from the promo pics. Saved me $150. Thanks.

You think so? I just bought the gray one last night...this is the nicest looking stand bag I have seen (not to mention pockets galore!). The guy at the shop said they are selling like crazy.

Well, I knew I would be insulting somebodys sensibilities - we all have our own ideas about what looks good and what doesn't. It's the glare that gets me - the actual photos look like there's a plasticish shine to both the colored portions and the bag/straps/etc. I like everything else about it - the pockets, the 14 divider, the weight.
