  1. Past hour
  2. I’m a walking golfer so the choice is simple. Stand bag. Specifically the Titleist 4 Carbon stand bag 2.8 lbs.
  3. Just got a vessel on FB marketplace for the individual slots. I push my clubs most of the time so I think the cart bag will be nice with the clic gear! Have always been a stand bag guy though.
  4. Cart bag for me. My current bag is a Taylormade Cart Lite. While I walk the course 90% of the time, I use a push cart (Sun Mountain Speed Cart V1R) I don’t carry my bag. As to why- I simply don’t like carrying it, I get horrible pain in my shoulders from every carry bag I’ve ever tried- to be fair, I’m 6’6” and broad-shouldered…not exactly the body shape this carry bags are designed for.
  5. Stand bags primarily for the versatility. Plus, most stand bags can still hold way more than what is necessary to bring to the course.
  6. Congratulations on the promotion, and the assignment!
  7. Congratulations on your decision! It may start out a little uneasy as it takes time to get accustomed to the initial lack of routine and comradery. As @Erin B commented I still miss it from time to time, but other things will fill the void.
  8. Definitely cart. I cart bag< they are huge and can carry a lot of things. (A 22cal. for when in the woods and want to do some hunting while looking for a ball. A fishing rod when by the lake for looking for the ball again.) just had both and now retire and golfing everyday. The cart bag lets me carry more out on the course for the day
  9. I switched to a stand bag over 20 years ago and now have a Sun Mtn with a 14 way top. They work well when I walk, use a push cart or ride. Can’t best the weight distribution of their shoulder strap system and the 14 way top with full length dividers works well to protect the shafts.
  10. I've had my Ping Pioneer for 5 years or so, and I love it. Thinking of jumping up to the DLX this year. My Pioneer is getting too full!!
  11. I use a cart bag for the main reason I have an MGI Zip Navigator. The heaviness of the bag stabilizes the cart. I tried lighter bags but this works.
  12. Donno if i should say congratulations on you retirement or not. It was bittersweet for me. I miss it every day. Good luck and keep us in the loop.
  13. I never carry or use a push cart. I'm always riding. Some places I play don't even allow walking. So, I obviously have a cart bag, and it's full of stuff. Like, too full Weighs a ton. One side has an umbrella, extra socks, and full rain gear even if it's not going to rain. The other side pocket carries half a dozen new gloves, bag of protein bars, box of new balls, and a small mesh bag with 25 or so range balls. The magnetic pouch on the front carries 12-15 balls. Zipper pouch is full of 3.25" Professional Tee Systems tees. Left small side pocket contains a pouch full of divot tools and ball markers. Right small side pocket is my valuables pouch. Bottom of the bag is a cooler with an ice pack and 2 bottles of Powerade. Last bottom pouch is a catch all for junk. Foot spray, range tees, club wrenches, phone holder that attaches to an alignment stick, etc. It's a PING Pioneer and has been an excellent bag!! I do like having a stand for the parking lot and range, so I installed an after market stand assembly I got off eBay. Works great!!
  14. lol….. my latest purchase is a new putter to me. I am sure we all have that friend who has multiple putters. He showed up using it and I just like the look. Asked to try it out and 2 days later made him offer. For now I love it, but give me 3 months and let’s see. The putter an Odessy mini seven
  15. Good morning MGS troops! Hope this Friday morning finds you well and happy! I’m not coffeeized yet. Still pondering whether to get out of bed. Lucy the Rhodesian Weenback is on the mend. The spousal unit is happy about that, and she’s happy I got to get out and practice yesterday. I only played the back 9 at Airport Golf Club in Cheyenne. We got out late from the surgical team so only had a little time left. I’m trying Golfshot and figuring out the app. It sometimes screws up the club but here are the results from yesterday. The top picture is why I’m using Golfshot. I’m working on swing timing and mechanics. It works with my Apple Watch and measures my swing. Some of the other data right now is inaccurate because I’ve been messing around ant the app has also messed up my shots. But as it learns me and I it it will get better. That’s all I have to report this morning! Hopefully we will all get some golf time today. Happy birdie hunting and have a beautiful day! Wyo out!
  16. I have both to be honest. In the UK we use buggies less than other side of the pond, but more use on electric trolley etc… If only playing few holes, or heavy conditions in winter then tend to carry, tournaments will use trolley as carry more stuff…
  17. I use an MGI electric trolley. Stand Bags don't fit well, as the legs get in the way, so I use a cart bag with the trolley. When I travel, I switch to a stand bag because they are smaller and lighter. If I am going someplace where I will use a caddie, I always bring a light stand bag, as the caddies will not carry a big cart bag or pro style bag, and they will transfer your sticks to a lightweight bag.
  18. Morning All, Yesterday I got news that basically confirmed that I am putting in my request to retire next week. I emailed my detailer and asked about getting orders to a certain area, cause if so I’d re-enlist for those orders since retention and recruiting efforts is not the greatest. But with his response, which was not bad at all, it just set the wheels in motion to request to retire. So I will be talking with my Command Career Counselor next week in order to do that. I also thought I was going to have a 4 day weekend, and while I kind of will, I have to go into work today to let someone in for about an hour. No biggie. Rain has stopped, so maybe going to the range after that. hope everyone has a great day.
  19. When I would walk as well as ride, I had an Ogio Hybrid bag, I loved it. Then I bought a cart, had a Sun Mountain c130, that was great, now I have a Ping DLX and that is ever better. However, I would never walk with the DLX unless it was on a cart. There is a reason the Pro's don't lug their own bags.
  20. Good Morning Spies! Another Friday has crept up on us and none to soon by most accounts! Had a decent day on the course yesterday with one exception being the driver. After a promising start on 1st, next two holes were embarrassing so it was put in time out for the remainder of the round... Not sure how long it will remain there but definitely a range session in store. Happy Easter to those who observe and hope everyone has a long weekend in store that includes some golf. Fairways and greens!
  21. I walk over 90% of the time so I use a Sunday stand bag or a regular stand bag.
  22. Currently a Pins & Aces stand, it’s just easier to move than the big old cart bag. I won a Bag Boy cart bag and push cart that I’ll try and switch out to but in the interim walking to the range and into my lessons the stand bag makes the most sense.
  23. Went with a Taylor made hybrid bag with 14 club slots,plenty of storage,easy to fit in car with trolley and leave room for luggage when going away. Found it works well as stand/carrying or on a trolley,would be nice to have a big cart bag but would be a luxury rather than practical for UK weather.
  24. Even though I use a cart now, I have both. A Titleist 14 way cart along with a Titleist 14 way hybrid, which I use for my golf trips.
