This post is interesting in that taste possibly reflects generational gaps.

I can appreciate the quality and workmanship of a Mackenzie or Mullholland (even though the prices are staggering). However in my opinion they're just too old school. I like the flash of the Japanese imports, especially the puma.

I personally use a tmx staff. For whatever reason I'm partial to white bags. Come spring this will be my next bag.

Another vote for the three-coloured Mizuno staff bag, but in this particular design:

Very bold and striking, but without a load of unnecessary foofaraw that the more recent Mizuno staff bags have had, complete with lots of piping, shiny silver streaks and other needless frippery that spoils the clean lines of the bag. This version was far and away the best in my book. Simple blocks of colour in a neat, sectioned design. The designers get 10 out of 10 for this. I've got a vinyl version of this bag (the pictured one is a nylon construction) that dates back to 1989 and it's my favourite staff bag of the several that I own by far.

In the case of practical bags that you can use every day, I still think a cavalry twill Ping L8 takes some licking. A solid, functional design, with timeless styling and a hardy construction that keeps it looking presentable for years. My blue one's still going strong after 18 years or so of faithful service and still looks pretty much as good as the day I got it. No daft colour schemes that date it, nor a slew of showy logos all over the place to draw arrention to it. A brilliantly designed piece of kit all round, and a sort of B52 or Bell UH-1 of the golf bag world.

Well said and agree whole-heartedly.

Wow!

[ddongman]

Japan has some awesome bags. why not in the us?

[tbomb]

I was looking for a bag on google and came across this thread.

Bump for some beauties! and a few "others" lol

[DiaBetic WooKie]

That miura bag is nice. is that a C63 AMG in the backround?

 

 

Love the stormtrooper bag...

 

 

 

 

Is it true that the bag is bigger than 10.5 in order to fit 14 clubs and a lightsaber? Just what i've heard

 

In all seriousness where can I get one???

Pro Golf Japan has a bunch of fun ones :good:

I just don't see the fascination with those bags. IMO they look like there straight of the 1950s. I understand that they're hand made, high grade leather, etc. but they can't possibly be as ergonomically advanced as the newer modern bags can they?

I agree - they remind me of the Sunday bag too. Only being leather, they are way too heavy.

[mikefjohnson]

I guess I like flash, this is right up my ally!

Why does Japan get such awesome designs and we in the USA get bland crap?
[/quote]

Great question! It seems like they consistently have great looking bags released over there. I'm on staff with Titleist, and I always ask our rep why we don't see better stuff here Stateside.

Not to mention the price is justified from the components and craftsmanship put into the bag. They're not paying a near-child worker in Vietnam five cents an hour to stitch the pockets on.

As for the second part of your post: I wouldn't know if I'd buy it as I have the choice to not shop at Wal-Mart and do so because it ruins communities.

Please, there is no way that bags price can be justified- $800 for a basic leather satchel with a couple of pockets, even if they are the finest leather and hand sown by virgins on a mountain top.

srixon for me

[bub72ck]

I can appreciate the crafsmanship of the Mackenzie but its not for me.

 

 

That is from my WITB thread a couple of years ago. I still use the same bag and I love it. I bought it from fellow Wrxer DTown a few years ago when we were both at BSG. Do I consider it "beautiful"? No Do I think it's cool? Yep

[tbomb]

I'll take pics soon. I have a silver JL carry bag, an orange and burnt orange vantage. a black canadian flag ping bag and an all white ping bag in the mail. Oh and 5 staff bags...lol

[byronk]

A very cool staff bag.

 

 

 

 

I could see myself using one of these bags. Just somthing about it fits me!! lol

[mojo_13]

Something about those Bridgestone bags, I just love the yellow and red one. Keep having to kick myself to not pull the trigger on a stand version.

I just picked up a Mulholland Brothers full leather Sunday bag. Always wanted a Mackenzie Walker but can't justify the cost. According to the seller, he research it with the MB down in SFO, it was produced in the early 80's. What cool is all the hardware on this bag, including the zippers are brass.photo by strobbing tifosi, on Flickr

Just seen this Superman bag is on sale. Looks great and a good price.
