Thinking of investing in a new bag

retiefgoosen!

Noob alert!

Search doesn't show anything particularly recent on bag opinions, so any suggestions are welcome.

I'm using a cheapy Spalding bag which I really don't like.
My main gripe is that my grips 'stick' to each other in the bottom. So when playing, getting clubs in and out can be annoying. Also I use a 3 wheel Powwacaddy which means the bag ends up quite flat (horizontal) which causes the clubs to kinda lie on top of each other, if that makes sense.

So I was thinking of the Powakaddy Bag Delux Cart, mainly because it has a 13 way full length divider system which means the clubs won't be sticking to each other and it should go nicely with the cart.

But then this Wilson Tour Cart Bag is just so pretty!

Anyone use either of those or want to offer any info / opinions on any others. Thanks in advance.

I've seen a few lads here mention Ogio I haven't found a means of buying them here yet. They also had a rotating top at one point, although I haven't found recent reference, so it may have been discontinued

Not exactly the same as the op is asking but do people like the 14way divider bags? I find them a royal pain in the A$$. And I'm relatively organised with my clubs, I used to have a 7 way divider bag, one divider was for the putter, one was for the 3 woods and then 2 irons in each of the others, and the irons always went in the same spot (a bit of OCD i suppose). But for me the 14way divider seems to just get in the way, Its difficult to get at the clubs in the middle and to me its not worth the effort.

Thoughts?

Yeah not a major fault, but put two identical bags side by side, one with the "old fashioned" 6way divider, and one with a 14way divider, I'll take the 6way one every time.

More than coincidence that Ian Poulters logo looks like a knob

Not as much bothered about the number of dividers as I am with the fact that they are full length i.e. go all the way down I guess. Anything to prevent my club grips 'sticking' in the bottom of the bag.

You could always get some divider tubes - they are fairly cheap and stop the grips from getting stuck together.

But they can scratch graphite shafts badly speaking from experience.

Depends, if your head covers are long enough to go down into the tube there is little scratching, but personally I find them a pain so got rid of them.
