I BOUGHT EVERY GOLF CARRY BAG and I'm Giving Them Away

[@zackerymaggert344]

Honestly I've watched a couple videos and this gentleman is funny, creative, smart. Really like how he's honest. Not brand pushy and just a cool dude.

[@DailyDisclose]

The rain cover for the ping bag is in the padded area. There is a symbol on the bag saying rain cover.

[@rybry5080]

The Hood for the ping should be inside the padded hip thing :D

[@georgetallmage]

Ping did a great job finding a place for the rain hoods within the back pad. Saves space, and adds comfort.

It's all about that Ping Hoofer. Bought that bag about 6 months ago and haven't had any regrets.

[@shezzasid7386]

4:40 the ping bag does have a rain cover. It’s actually attached to the bag in a secret pocket behind the cushion for your back

[@davidcarver3959]

It's amazing how professional golfers professionals go ahead and give away things out of their own pocket community and other people absolutely love that.

[@reddemunn]

Great idea for a video.

[@ericlarish]

Thats where It is. When I bought mine, I couldn't find it at first either.

[@tw6086]

I ended up with the Ping bag. Btw, the rain hood is hidden under the padding for your hip. I like the Mizuno too but the way Ping integrates the mechanism to expand the feet is the best. Many other companies sticks out and can sometimes scrape the bag of your calf if you are not careful. Only Ping, Titliest, and Taylormade bags has this.

[@ILik3PH0T0]

Thats what makes the Ping bag even cooler. Its so hidden and it's behind the padding so it provides comfort for your back while its hidden away.

[@monaownza]

​@@ILik3PH0T0hows the ping bag holding up 1 year later?

[@scooterbananas]

I carry that very same Ping Craz-E-Lite bag and it's awesome! Two things... 1. I attach my glove(s) to the top plastic handle. Better that velcro IMO. 2. The rain cover is located in the back cushion of the golf bag.

[@monaownza]

Bag still going strong?

[@scooterbananas]

@monaownza yes. Only issue is there is some club pull. More so if you have larger grips. Not a deal breaker. Bag is sooooooo light!

[@bobvee1694]

There is an additional design feature that folks should consider, and that is whether the base of the bag is fixed (Callaway, Mizuno and Sun Mountain) or moving (Titleist and Ping). Each of the fixed base bags have an external pedal (for lack of a better term) that activates the legs when you put the bag down. Both the Ping and the Titleist have the mechanism inside the bag such that the base actually moves every time you put the bag down, jostling the clubs and causing them to move. Up to each of you whether this annoys you or not, but it did annoy me when I was carrying my previous Ping Hoofer 14 (I stopped carrying now that I am over 60). That said, I do prefer the pedal-free movable base type because I now use a 3 wheel push cart, but desire a stand bag for trips to the range. The absence of the pedal makes it easier to mount on my cart. I am currently using a pedal-free Titleist stand bag with a 14 way top and a BagBoy Nitron push cart. My Titleist bag does not have the Velcro for your glove, which I do appreciate, but I created one with by attaching a velcro cable tie (you may already own some!) to one of the many available loops on any bag. Also a comment on the rain hoods, which Matt said the Ping did not have, but someone already pointed out where it was (there is even an arrow next to the leg pointing to the rain hood pocket!). This gives the Ping the advantage of not cluttering up one of the otherwise usable pockets with the rain hood. So...given the choices here, any player who wants a stand bag but uses a cart (there must be others), I would probably give the nod to Ping since it is pedal-free, and uses the pockets more efficiently.

[@craigwillis7384]

Really like the simplicity of the Ping bag, everything you need and nothing you don't

[@danewhitwell2048]

I have used a Callaway bag for the past 3 years and it has been the most comfortable bag I have ever used. With that said the Mizuno and Ping are both clean!

[@ereg8691]

It was a sign of relief when he said he was keeping the Mizuno, there’s is still a chance I can get the Ping bag 😤😮

The ping bag is my favorite. The rain hood is under the back pad.

[@jacobmccain8082]

My rain hood is in a little pocket just to the right of the puffy part of the hoofer near the top. Its easy to miss if you're not looking for it.

[@goodtobelos]

Ping has been my golf bag of choice for years. That vertical zipper on Mizuno bag is game changer!!!

[@andytodd4742]

Like the Mizuno carry bag as have used a previous model during UK winters when courses don't allow buggies or trolleys. My preference of the choice available would be the Ping bag, like the colours.

[@bartvalle3473]

Ping rain cover is in the back pad. Also cool to see you. Hope the fam is all good.

[@hondasctx]

Definitely good choice with the very sharp Mizuno bag. My favorite for simplicity and no frills ease of use is the Ping. Classic, light, easy on and off, great bag. Nice work. Always great entertaining reviews!

[@deanjuster2588]

Have to say my favourite is the Callaway. I like the classic traditional styling

[@danielcohen3159]

I love my Sun Mountain 2.5. I had the 3.5, too and they're great, light bags. I actually sewed a velcro patch right on top of the bottom pouch on both of them - so it's right where my left hand is. And I only put the needle into my finger like, four times!

I agree with your to pick. Love the Mizuno bag. But for sleek and understated, I gotta say.... Titleist

[@tcvdavid]

So I bought myself the Mizuno bag on your recommendation and I love it! It is such a great bag. Thank you for doing this video.

[@cbisjr]

everyone knew you'd pick the Mizuno bag as soon as you said "i liked it" at 6:47. Everything else about that bag was cherry and nuts to make it better. The biggest feature you will like is the huge top opening and the horizontal club alignment. If you walk a lot, you'll notice the difference (irons aligned and not too much of pulling out of bag). GL and enjoy!

[@jesusdiaz5969]

I knew you was gonna go with the Mizuno from the moment I saw the bag! Great choice Mr. Shortgame!

Hoofer wins every time. Only brand bag that feels like you are paying for cool features on a quality bag, and not just paying for the name. Access zipper, rain hood in the hip pad is GENIUS and way more pockets than standard brand name bags with a clean look

[@dha757]

Just purchased the Mizuno BR D2 bag. Love it. It isn’t for everyone with its short legs. Extremely lightweight and can hold everything I need. Back in November it was on AMZN for $90

My Ping bag has a cover on the side that comes into contact with your back. Check for a zipped pocket. Maybe the decided against the cover for weight. Ping is the bag they’re trying to be.

I'm picking nits but those are "stand" bags. Jones makes actual "Carry" bags. By the time you load up all those fancy pockets the initial weight doesn't mean too much.

Have to say there's a lot missed in this video, I feel there are many things that are more important than whether the stands are carbon fiber. Like how the water bottle pocket is, is it insulated or just a pocket? Also how's the build quality, while I'm sure they are all nice, im sure some are built with better quality than others

[@TheBigjas21]

Love the review. I actually just bought the MaxFli Honors 14 carry bag. A little heavier, but has an insulated pocket as well as a water bottle bag, and the big feature I liked, was the kick plate on the bottom of the bag is NOT the style that sticks out. This is a huge issue with when you travel. The kick plates that stick out destroy travel bags after only a few trips.

[@tomkimes]

I just bought a Titleist Hybrid 14 bag, mostly because I use a push cart at my home course and the straps on that bag are detachable. But I'd love the Ping Hoofer for when I travel and carry the sticks 🛩 🏌️‍♂️

[@lennysanchez7922]

Awesome video, it’s funny, I did the same evaluation about 4 months ago. I ended up with the 2018 model of the ping hoofer. It’s heavy but I can still walk 18 with it. One thing I found annoying with hyper lite bags is the fabric tends to rip at the top after about a year. Also, I hate when they use a string for holding accessories because it will inevitably twist up as you walk making it a problem with range finders. Things I looked for were glove Velcro, tee holders, and easy access for cell phones (callaway does this best with that open pocket). The newer bag has the cell phone pocket above the accessory pocket which is way better if you have the bag over filled.

[@frankcanzanella6753]

Can you review how you work with the shoulder straps. How they attach to the bags. I wore my Athalonz shoes today at the range for the first time. Though they are a little tighter than my Footjoys they were comfortable. Even though my big toes point a little towards the pinky toe exposing the knuckle of the big toes the soft leather of the Athalonz shoes didn’t create pressure upon the slightly exposed knuckles. But as with my FootJoys the top of my left big toe became red due to friction with the top of the toe box when I swing the clubs. Maybe I need to learn to not pull my left big toe back as I hit into the ball. One bandaid and some white tape also solves this problem. I learned today to keep my left wrist quiet during the backswing , and during the waggle before the backswing. Creating absolute stability in my left wrist prevented any premature cocking of the wrists during the takeaway of the backswing. It led to a very comfortable downswing with my right hand exerting control throughout the swing.
