fdlptruckie Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Currently i'm in the market for a new stand bag. My old titleist bag has been worn out and is looking to be retired. My only true requirements are is the bag must be 4-way and light. I searched and searched the internet and found the Vessel VLS DXR and the Titleist Players 4 Carbon. Are there any other options that I missed and have any other forum members have any experience with the bags I mentioned.

Hacker60521 Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 @fdlptruckie I don’t know if 4 way is a “must” but I’ve just put my eyes on the Vessel Player Air Stand. It comes in 6-way which weighs around 4.5 pounds. Made of corduroy instead of fake leather Quote Driver: Stealth2 3W: Stealth2 4H: Stealth 2 Irons 4I-9I: T200 Wedges P, 48: T200 Wedges 54, 58: Vokey SM9 Putter: O Works #1 Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdlptruckie Posted June 5 Author Share Posted June 5 @Hacker60521 I looked at the leather bag and i'm not sure how I would feel on a hot summer day walking with that kind of bag. I've always used 4-way bags and have fell in love with them. Keeps my organization simple and I know I got 4 clubs at the bottom, 3 on each side in the middle and 4 up to.

Hacker60521 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 @fdlptruckie I hear you. The one I mentioned is cordura (?) so not leather. So maybe it won’t feel the same. Funny about the four way. I have a five way top so my pattern is the same as yours except at the “top” I have two compartments that I separate as D+3W and 4H+Putter Quote Driver: Stealth2 3W: Stealth2 4H: Stealth 2 Irons 4I-9I: T200 Wedges P, 48: T200 Wedges 54, 58: Vokey SM9 Putter: O Works #1 Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will A Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 That Players Carbon looks interesting, but I'm suspect of anything that light. I learned in the backpacking and hike-in hunting world that lighter packs aren't the most comfortable. Sometimes it's worth a couple extra pounds to have the suspension, structure, and padding to make a long carry with a heavy load comfortable. Now what you put in it is another story. Back to golf and your question, I just picked up a Titleist Linkslegends Members Classic (review coming soon) that I'm thrilled with. It's got a 3-way divider, but the Members bag has the 4-way. Materials exude quality, and the straps (it comes with both single and double) are extremely comfortable. Worth taking a look if you can find one - I think they're pro-shop only, though.

barney19 Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 I went from a nike stand bag wasn't a big fan of it. It twisted around in the cart and I wanted one with 14 slots. So then had an impulse buy on a cart bag because I typically ride... big mistake. Regretted it the first time I took it out. But I did really like the 14 slots especially the designated putter slot to handle the big grip. So when I decided that 12 months on the cart bag enough I was determined not to regret the next purchase. I was not disappointed with the Callaway Fairway 14. 14 slots and it fits really nicely in a cart because the legs don't go all the way to the top of the bag. they start about 8 inches down the bag so that it is easily carted. Great Bag! Rob Person 1 Quote Driver Ping G415, Irons Ping i525, Wedges Volkey 54 & 58, Putter Scotty Cameron Phantom 8.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now in the world of hunting when I'm walking back deep in public land I like to be light. I have found a good pack that has been my go to pack now. Since the post I have been drawn to a 5-way bag and honestly the new leather maxfli leather bag. I might move up to 5-way or more because with the current 4-way bag and midsize grips its tough getting clubs in and out the bag.

Great Bag! Yea 14 is a tad bit much. I have been drawn to the 5-way bag now. The issue with my 4-way bag that I never took into consideration is that with midsize grips it gets hard sometimes taking clubs in and out the bag.

JSki_Golf Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 Right now I am playing with the Vessel player three-stand bag for the last three years and just now it decided to crap out on me. Before that, I had a Muzino golf bag that lasted me all the way through my high school and college years. I've been looking at Jones, MNML, and LinkLegengds to be my next golf ball. Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated since I will be following this thread. Rob Person 1 Quote JSki_Golf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
