New Taylormade Bags

[spinnywedge]

Anyone have any info on new Taylormade bags this year? I was in PGA Superstore and it looked like all 3 main carry bags got updated. They also had a "supreme" cart and carry bag that look to compete with the linksmaster bags. They were leather-like and overall better quality. The carry bag only had a 3 way divider, and I thought it looked on the small side.

Those might be the crossover ones they did with Vessel. Basically just a lite lux with the TM logo on it. We have a few in my club's pro shop. They do look similar the the LinksLegend bags.

This is a great idea if it works.  I can’t stand saggy legs.

I’ve heard that was a limited time partnership between TM and Vessel and once the existing stock of those bags is sold, there won’t be anymore.  Great bag.

 

Also, it looks like TM has gone back to non-self-adjusting straps, which is good news.  Give me the padded cross-strap any day over the self-adjusting straps, that I can never get to self adjust … only tangle.

Lots to like with these updates and some of the new offerings.  Colorways look good, and they didn't mess too much with FlexTech or FlexTech Lite which were already pretty solid bags.

The Flextech Carry bags look nice, but not a fan of the lack of any type of grab handle at the top of the bag.

Also, kind of odd that they don't list out the weight of the bag anywhere on the page unless I'm missing it somewhere?

Yep, that's them. They weren't on the website earlier in the day when I looked. The new straps seem like they'll be better than the old ones, and the spot to clip on a bag tag or rangefinder isn't in the way of the side pockets as much.

Different than the vessel bags they had. These didn't strike me as being quite that good quality, but slightly better than the normal bags.

Has anyone picked up a new flextech lite yet?  Curious of any initial reviews.

Anyone have the brown supreme cart bag, looks nice but the reviews are mixed.

Pulled the trigger on the new 23 Flextech with USA colorway. I’ve been using a 22 Hoofer and haven’t changed due to most manufacturers not having cart strap pass thru or magnetic pocket on their stand bags. I mostly ride, but will carry on occasion and can definitely be a range rat. TM followed in PING's footsteps this year and added both above features. I’ve liked this colorway since I saw Tommy Fleetwood rocking it in a practice round a couple weeks ago (no US flag, ha).

 

First glance is it’s structurally very similar to the Hoofer, but lighter. Straps aren’t quite as padded as PING. Hoofer’s bag material seems slightly* thicker. Pockets are better on the Flextech IMO. The magnetic pocket is a deep insulated pocket. More pockets around the base with ample space for whatever. Club tangle is MUCH better in the FT vs the Hoofer.  
 

While on the phone w TM customer service, I asked them about the “leg lock tech” and magnetic pouch since they don’t advertise either on their site (they do show leg lock technology on the FT lite page). They told me the 23 FT had both of those features, however that was false for the leg lock. I’m an 80/20 rider and have no droop yet, but we've only had it for a week and on the course twice.

Hadn't intended to buy a bag this weekend but the stars aligned. 

New 2022 FlexTech Lite. Got a very good price so even with the logo it added to my arsenal. 

Happily surprised that it has both dual and single straps.
