Ogio. Super high quality.

Ogio's are total JUNK. Nothing high quality about them. Legs droop and too heavy to carry. They have a lot of features, but not well made.

Totally agree. My Ogio lasted less than three months before the frame sagged and the major stitched seams all fell apart. Shop wasn't surprised when I took it back and swapped it out for a Nike which is hardly touched after three years of constant use.

Their backpacks suck eggs too. As does their customer service. Ogio = POS

Ogio will not get my business again even if their cs is really top notch.
[/quote]

Ogio customer service sucks. I bought two bags from Ogio in the past, both broke, and their CS were less than helpful.

Just got my new hoofer, its unbelievable.
First stand bag and hopefully my last for a while.
Carries everything I require and looks amazing.

Who makes cobra bags? I like them

What would be the recommendation for a carry bag where you don't carry at all. I love my carry bags but I don't carry at all. I put them on a cart but prefer the carry for practice.

[highergr0und]

I've had great luck with Ogio bags. My current grom is 6 or 7 years old and only issue is the cart strap broke about two years ago. Rest of the bag is perfect

9 out of 10 people who have Ping stand bags played Jr/competitive golf.

I had a Ping Hoofer that lasted 15 years. I loved it. Last spring I replaced it with a Titleist lightweight stand bag. I never really liked the Titleist bag. First, I couldn't get the straps to balance properly. Second, on really hot days the straps bled onto my shirts. Third, you can't just scoop up the bag and get it on. You have to make sure the straps aren't twisted. Fourth, the water bottle pocket is poorly designed. It's hard to get in the pocket it covers with a bottle in it. Worse, it has no holes to let moister air out. To be fair, they're a few features I did like. The opening for the club sections are nice and wide, clubs slide out easily. The handle at the top of the bag is handy. The stand works well.

I sold the Titleist bag, and replaced it with a new Ping Hoofer. In addition to well designed straps and water bottle pocket, the Hoofer has other features I really like. One, a dedicated pocket for my laser. Two, a specific sunglasses pocket. Three, I feel like the overall construction is much better. My vote/ recommendation in a Ping Hoofer, 100%.

[putts4bogey]

I love my Hoofer.

[caniac6]

Had SM 3.5 for years, and loved them. I recently got a 2015 3.5, and the handle dug in my back so much, I can't comfortably carry it. Picked up a very gently used Hoofer at Play it Again Sports, and I believe I will be using Ping bags going forward. It seems a bit heavier, but a much better built bag.

[TWGgolfer]

Guys I live in Ireland....... (rain central) so I obviously need a waterproof bag. Only going to go with Callaways or Titleists.... Not a big fan of titleist dont mind them but whatever bag lasts longer is what i want thanks

Sun Mountain makes Titleists' bags.

I have tried them all and for the past 3 years have used a Titleist ultra light stand bag and LOVE it. 3 straight rows for the clubs actually does a nice job minimizing chatter. Insulated beverage pocket, Velcro built into the bag for glove, VERY light with great legs.

My all-time favorite bag to date.

Does Titleist make it's own bags or sub contract a design out ala Nike ? thought Sun Mountain made them, sorry I'm late to this thread

I like the Hoofer. I like the retractable strap, which makes it very easy to throw over one shoulder. Also, I rarely take a cart, but when I do the legs don't stick out so it fits nice and snug on the cart.

I loved the hoofers but i've had many zippers break with them. Tried two of them with same result. I've had almost every zipper on the bag break more than once for each bag. Gave up after that as I need a durable bag. Went to titleist and haven't had any issues with them.

[Holy Moses]

My Hoofer has been very durable, but the clubs don't always fit in nicely. Sometimes you have to manhandle them in.

[lefty77RS]

Recently bought this:

 

 

 

Would highly recommend it.

 

Comfortable to carry, light, good sized pockets and good sized top if you carry 14 clubs.

[deejaid]

I just replaced my Sun Mountain Stand Bag that I bought with my first bonus of my new job in 1999. It is still in perfect shape. All the zippers work, no tears, just a sturdy well built bag. Only reason I replaced it was that newer bags are much lighter. My old Sun Mountain weighed 6.5lbs. My new Sun Mountain Series One weighs 4 lbs. I also like the pocket layout of the Series One better.

[Danny Young]

I have had a number of bags over the years and nothing has beat my nike stand bag. I also use a ping E2 stand bag for going to the range and the odd 9 holes the worst bag i have had would be my cleveland 588 stand bag , tons of pockets but the straps are very poor.

I've had a Ping Hoofer since early 2000's and always loved it. I bought an Ogio for some reason and never got along with it. Wasn't a fan of the "woode" system and the bag felt heavy and cheap at the same time. Went back to the old hoofer until this year when it finally started to go. Just ordered the 16 hoofer, and really looking forward to it. Played around with it at GG and it seems like Ping just thinks like a golfer when they design the bag. Everything from a removable ball pocket to be able to embroider, to a little key latch in the zipper so your keys don't jingle. I was happy to give Ping my business again and will do so moving forward.

Are you sure about that? I went to a GG and played around with a SM and a Titleist and they seemed identical?

'13 was the last year that SM made the Titleist bags.
