Congrats guys. I’ve heard nothing but great things about these bags. Hopefully your tests confirm all the good!

Congrats Testers.  Looking forward to hearing what you think.

Congratulations testers...I look forward to hearing about how these bags perform in the long haul.

great looking bag!  Congrats testers!!

Good news for all of you. I was hoping to be chosen because my Cleveland stand bag has deteriorated. I seldom walk & should use a cart bag & it seems 125+ annual rounds in a cart doesn’t fare well for a stand bag made for carrying!

Looking fwd to reading your experiences & assessments.

Congrats testers!! I'm super interested to hear how these wear over time, especially for the premium price tag. If they hold up, and we get a MGS Forum version, I may splurge.

These bags look dope.  Cant wait to see some non marketing pictures, and hear your reviews on these.  I bought a Jone bag thinking it would make me walk more. All it has done is made me complain about clubs getting tangled. 
 

Grats!

An MGS version would be sweet!

Right out of the gate,  a few questions I've had lurking, and to answer once you've recieved these bags.

Will the weight be a factor once loaded?

Will you maximize the storage potential? Or stay minimalist?

Do any of you use all jumbo grips, and will it be an issue if you do?

Will it stand up on its own for range sessions?

How well does it fit/work on a push cart? (Straps, access to pockets, etc)

Looking forward to the photos too!

Great questions, and stuff I'd love to know as well!

It looked great sitting next to my current Sun Mountain C130 Supercharged bag on the cart on Wednesday.... when I could not say anything about what I knew I was going to get in another week or so

This post was screen-shot for reference.  I, and I am sure the other testers, will answer these questions fully.

Congrats everyone!  Some good looking bags

Hello to all.  First, I would like to thank MGS for choosing a rookie to test this product.  I will do my best to share all my experiences with the Ghost-GT14 (I chose the Maverick bag) as compared to my current Ping Pioneer bag.  I took a quick break from making my wife an end-grain cutting board to post this.  A full intro will be posted later today and then I am jumping right in.  Feel free to question everything I post, challenge me to do something you experienced with your bags that I have not, and poke fun at my club-head covers…I can take it!!!!!  
 

I am excited for this opportunity and will do my best.  Until later, hit ‘em straight and one-putt all day long!

[Medfloat]

Good evening all,

 

Thought I would drop by and say hello......Hello.  I was recently selected to test the Ghost GT-14 bag and am grateful for the opportunity.   With that said, I would like to tell y'all a tad about me.  I am a father of one fantastic daughter that is studying at Cincinnati, and husband of 22 years.  My wife started taking golf lessons this year so we could do couples golfing with a bunch of friends (she also wants to be better at golf than my daughter but that may take a few more lessons---don't let her know I said that!)  I am a Marine Corps Veteran that served from 1989-1999 with duty stations in North and South Carolina, the Mediterranean sea, Iraq, and Japan.  Currently I am a law enforcement officer of over 23 years in a suburb of Cleveland and retiring in a bit over a year, or sooner.  I like walks on the beach, cold drinks and ice cream by the spoonful...just kidding, but not about the ice cream.  Some of my hobbies are golf, bourbon tastings, reloading, reading books (yea those thingys they store on shelves with words in them), and woodworking.  Speaking of woodworking, I am in the midst of finishing an end-grain cutting board for the Mrs., there is a picture on one of the posts I put up today.

Let's see here---my 25 year, self-taught golf game has improved a bunch over the last two years and I went from a 15 to an 8 as of today.  Lowest handicap was a 7.3 about two months ago.  Yesterday I set a personal best 27 putts in a round.  Suffice it to say this has been a good golf year.   I hope to provide good, usable information during the review and look forward to our interactions.  Until next time, hit 'em straight and one-putt all day long!

I’ve been on the Forum so long now I forget there are plenty of new Spies who don’t know me.  I’m well into my 7th decade on this celestial sphere but not yet ready to retire.  I was a runner in high school and #2 on the cross country team, played saxophone since 4th grade and still play in the family’s rock and roll band, and first love was sailing that I can talk about with the depth I now can with golf and military topics.  My military career started in college, was all Army National Guard and Army Reserves starting at the bottom enlisted rank Combat Engineer, accepted the challenge of Officer Candidate School, lead troops as Combat Engineer and Civil Affairs Officer, advised leaders in personnel, training and tactics, and logistics, trained leaders and advisors in military problem solving, spent a year combat deployed at command level put a few things in my shadow box together, then wrote new curriculum all mid-grade Army Officers now complete.

MyGolfSpouse has been with me for 35 years and teaches science and history at her high school alma mater.  Together we have a daughter in her Masters Statistical Analysis studies and son who just graduated RIT Mechanical Engineering Technology.  2 Cardigan Welsh Corgi siblings keep us busy as well as her big family that has a 104+ year old matriarch leading the way with her indomitable spirit.  My family is mostly in the UK as my parents emigrated to the US before I was born and living through WW2 my upbringing was in an English household in America taking nothing for granted, wasting nothing, and understanding 3 versions of the language (UK, US, and Canadian, eh?)  Many dear Veteran friends include Canadians in southern Ontario having been to many Toronto Garrison Balls during the last half of my military career.

Golf began in an odd way, I lived next to the 3rd fairway of Fountains Green GC on Fort Dix for 5 years and my room on the end of Colonel’s Row was my first, hopefully not last, apartment by a golf course.  We would walk the grounds around the building at the end of the day nursing a single malt picking up golf balls to rescue them from being chopped up by the tractor mowers, hence the creation of the IGBRC in my signature (also on Facebook) - 1 bag of balls collected for each year I was there and the only club I had was my first putter bought at the PX.  When the school was shut down for mission complete, I went to Fort Leavenworth to author curriculum at the Army College and there the Pro at Trails West GC posted a flier to learn to golf for $20.  I visited the Thrift Shop and found my first golf bag and set of clubs (now my son’s) and learned I knew most things about golf, but not on course etiquette - then learned how to golf in least expensive mode.  I hit every tree on Trails West with every club except the putter and I was hooked.

That’s good enough for now, I am a Lieutenant Colonel (retired but they never take it away) and I could go on for ages, but I won’t.  I am looking forward to testing again, especially this cart bag for reasons you can read about when we get around to doing introductions where the official posting will be.  If you follow The Good Morning Thread you'll know that's where I do most of my forum posts.

As always, I do hope that golf is a part of your day!
