    Looking to upgrade from my Mizuno Aerolite to something a bit more waterproof. Would like something like this but seems the zips aren't all that good.
    Like the look of the Sun Mountain here if anyone had any feedback.

    I don't carry a whole pile of stuff, wet gear being the bulkiest.
    Easy access to clubs and longevity, dry pocket, cool pocket.

    TIA.

    These are great, especially if you have a motocaddy trolley, clicks in no lower strap needed.

    My last bag was a Sun Mountain and it was a great bag. I'm not sure about being waterproof as all bags will eventually leak. The Sun Mountain was very durable and I don't recall it leaking. Mine was a carry bag and I loved it.

    I'd be looking at the Sun Mountain H2NO range. Don't have one but have heard nothing but great things about them. Personally carry a SM three five and it's very well made and a pleasure to use. The titleist stadry is another option. I believe Sun Mountain make stand bags for titleist.

    Waterproof bags are crap looking, I think it's a requirements in order to be waterproof

    I'd only get one if I was really concerned about stuff getting wet.

    I have a Sun Mountain stand bag and a Titleist stadry cart bag. Both are made by SM, both excellent at keeping everything bone dry. I also think both look great, you'd only know they were waterproof ones from close up.

    Only advice I'd give is if getting cart bag, bring your trolley to the shop with you and see how it sits. The Titleist stadry seems to have been designed with mainly buggies in mind. It works fine with my trolley, but someone I know has difficulty keeping it on his, the straps on his are in the wrong place, it's quite a low cut bag at the top.

    I've got that SM bag also and the straps get soaked yeah? In fairness that Titleist one looks decent

    I have the H2NO. I've never really tested it on a bad day yet, but it's reputation is great. For an expensive bag i find the pockets and bits a little functional, i've had no pleasant surprises when you find a feature and it strikes you as really clever.
