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! 

That, Sir, is a very nice shadow box.  Thank you and your wife for your service.  One thing some people overlook is how much a spouse deals with when their wife/husband serves.  They deserve to be recognized as well.

I really want to get the people I work with some company branded golf bags that are cart bags (because they have carry bags) and wanted to find something a little different. Curious how this one plays out.

It's been a pleasure working with you. The oreo is a fantastic option.

Ghost Golf Cart Bag

Ghost Golf has released a cart bag that promises to combine style with functionality, offering features like magnetic pockets and extensive storage space. Premium priced, this bag aims to deliver convenience and durability on the course. The real question is whether it justifies the investment.

Key features:

Durability: The bag is built from materials that are said to withstand regular wear and tear. Does it really stand the test of time or do signs of wear show up too quickly?

Magnetic Pockets: Designed for easy access, these pockets should make it simple to grab essentials during your round. Testers will evaluate if this feature is as convenient as it sounds in practice.

Storage Space: With multiple compartments, the bag claims to help organize your gear efficiently. But are these compartments genuinely useful or do they add unnecessary bulk?

Colorways: Available in seven colorway options including the new Valor colorway.

Please join me in congratulating our selected testers!

cheers, enjoy the testing

It looks a great bag, I really want to hear about the absolute smooth practical use during a round that does not distract from playing.

i bought and immediately returned a top OGIO bag recently because it was such a bad fit to attach to my Stewart trolly.

Good to know.

Got an update a minute ago…Maverick launched from the deck of the USS Golfalot and heading to the Med.  Touch down should be within 22 hours.

Maverick has landed at the Med and is resting before the debrief.  Once the debrief is complete new tasks will be assigned.  Stand by for further.  Until then, hit ‘em straight and one putt all day!

I saw your post of this yesterday!  Such a good-looking bag!  I'm really surprised at how much I like the blue.

I second that! Spousal unit always asks why I choose red and black, I'm thinking she has a point and will try blue again next time. Hell, our daughter stole the one blue bag I bought from Pins and Aces in February. Little turd!!!

I've had it on my Oreo bag all season, no wear whatsoever

That's awesome. I like the valor livery but it was the white that concerned me, especially with it living on a cart since we don't walk.

Does that big front bottom pocket front come off? I might want to have a flag embroidered on it or something like that.

[Havocguns]

Congrats to all of the testers. I am looking forward to seeing how the bag holds up.

[Mike10487]

We have arrived!
