Ping Hoofer Tour......on sale now!

[Roy34]

I just got in too.  Can't wait to get it in!!!!!

[johngalt312]

Was at checkout and it wouldn't let me proceed as either sold out or having other website issues.  A couple of buyers already have on eBay for $1.5K BIN.  It's a cool/novel carry bag, but hah, good luck at that price.  That said, I have never understood the SC headcovers/bags demand either, so perhaps I'm not their target buyer.

while I was able to get one, let's just say it was a test of my patience. On the site at exactly 1pm...unable to to load pages or navigate when I could get on until 3:15pm. Finally able to get it in cart and try to checkout, but had to go through process multiple times. Finally able to complete and have order confirm. Figured some will try to sell for a hefty profit...can't believe people will pay that much but you never know. I'm keeping mine...use it for cart and push cart...keep my craz-e lite for walking. Love the looks of this bag...

You guys have more patience than I do. I gave up after half an hour on the Ping site. Fortunately, I was able to get one from Worldwide Golf Shops. Don't know how they had any, but happy to get it. Can't wait for it to arrive!

If anyone grabbed one and wants to sell I would be interested.

Still interested?

[Hougz79]

They are sexy AF.  For the target market, they are hard to beat.  'Grats to those that got one!

No thanks, I ended up grabbing a Linksmaster earlier this Summer.

How large is the zippered water bottle pocket? I have a 32 ounce flask which sits nicely in my '19 Hoofer's exterior water bottle pocket. Is the zippered pocket fairly easy to access?

Pgatss had 6 of them in stock last week in Atlanta.  Great looking bag but heavy.  Would be a great cart bag but not carry.

Which location?  Might have to swing by and take a look.

That's a 28 FL OZ gatorade bottle.

Kind of weird how everyone went crazy on these this time around. Earlier this year when they realised them for the Phoenix open, they were available for the best part of a week before selling out. Seem to remember that they were about $260-280 ish. Decided I didn’t need to pay $300 for a carry bag. 
Shame that Ping haven’t been able to keep up with demand this time around even after the delayed release.

I'm sure most people didn't know how limited these would be when Ping first released them, so there wasn't much of a hurry to buy them.  Then they sold out, and people who missed out were told they wouldn't be available again for several months.  So there's pent-up demand as people have been waiting most of the year for this release.  And the few reviews that are out there about these bags have been positive.

 

As these are a limited release product, Ping had no intention of keeping up with demand.  Ping is just jumping on board with what every brand is doing now with limited release products.

someone is trying to get $625 on the BST...the GNP going up!

[erikro]

Golfers warehouse in Peabody, MA has one in stock.

[Roy34]

Just received mine today.  It really looks great, and lots or room for everything.  Will use in carts and not carry.  Very pleased.

Popped into the Kennesaw store and they had one.  Superb materials and construction but you really pay for it in the weight.  Only thing I was somewhat disappointed in was the straps.  They were basically the same size and thickness/padding as the standard hoofer straps (though are better looking as they use the same leather like material on the back).  I had expected something better than the standard ones but again, if you aren't actually carrying then I suppose it doesn't matter.

There are quite a few available at certain national retailer, 18 to be exact. If you missed out on one to own and not flip send me a PM and I'll get you the information. 

[awtryau89]

Those folks buying them and asking outrageous prices are going to regret it. PGA SS in Duluth had 4. The guy checked the system and there are close to 100 nationwide in their system. Its easy to logon to their website and order for much less than the flippers. Live and learn.

I must say this bag is one of the prettiest I’ve ever seen.  From build quality to materials it is just gorgeous. As far as high end bags go, I’ve used the vessel stand bag and stitch SL1.  This hoofer tour is better than both IMHO. It’s functional and classy.  It’s in another class vs the Stitch.  The vessel holds its own against the hoofer tour but I lean towards the hoofer tour. If you can get it at retail, get it.  If you can afford the resell price and don’t care, get it.  Either way it’s an incredible bag.

It has the Hoofer base, so safe assumption is that they're not full length, but more like 3/4 length

[coops]

There’s a couple of these here right now at my usual driving range.... in Bangkok mind you 

 

😉

 

just under 12,000 baht, so around $380, if you’re in the area

The top two dividers are not full length but the other three are.  Hard to find that info anywhere other than shining a flash light into the bag lol

By "full length" I mean the dividers run all the way to the bottom of the bag.  PING stand bags have dividers that run about 75% down due the the Hoofer base.  I'd bet that's the case with the Tour as well.

From what I’m seeing, it appears to run all the way down. But again I’m just putting a flash light down and eyeballing it.

Drop a ball in one of the bottom sections, then tilt the bag around, it will probably roll all around the bottom.  Or there should be a zipper access to the inside of the bag in the bottom of the apparel pocket.
