    Wondering if there are any users if the ping hoofer here and if so how do you find it? Positives, negatives, etc.

    Also how well does it sit on an electric trolley?

    The stand bag? Yes, have had one for a couple of years. Use it as a Sunday bag mainly. Never used it on my trolley but the base is flat so it wouldn’t sit perfectly on it I don’t think.

    It’s a good bag but storage is a bit limited so if you’re going to be using a trolley I’d probably recommend a cart bag for that

    Thanks. Going to just have one bag if possible. I use the range a lot so a stand bag is handy. So will try find one that sits well on the trolley too. Don't need too much storage so a couple of pockets is fine for me.

    I have the Lite version that I use as my winter carry bag. Great bag.

    Only negative is lack of waterproofing.

    I've had a couple of Hoofer bags over the last 10 years. I love them for carrying but I have a Golf Glider trolley and they don't sit great on them! I have to use some bungie cords to hold it in place but it does the job!

    I have one and also use an Electric Powakaddy
    The Hoofer is popular for build quality and amount of pockets and general design

    Cons
    It is heavy and noticeably heavier than an old TM bag stand bag I had
    It wont sit right on all trolleys and doesn't sit right on my Powakaddy.
    My biggest peeve is that it wont stand vertical on its own base - so hard to store

    hi there - always used to have a Hoofer - maybe 20 years of them. Superb bag. In my opinion the older ones were slightly lighter, and kept falling off trolley. Recently moved to one of the vessel bags as they are very light and I generally carry but the old time put on a trolley and they are great. Hope that helps.

    I had a hoofer, one of the first ones probably over 20 years ago. it was a really great bag, a bit heavy but im sure the newer versions are lighter. only got rid of it a couple of years ago, sold it on adverts. it was still in great nic, I just don't carry that often anymore. it was terrible though at sitting on a trolley

    I had a white hoofer from the age of around 14-34 - the straps eventually gave up the ghost on me. I went electric for a few years after that but a few years ago went back to carrying again. My first thought was, "buy a hoofer!" Got a second hand one off adverts for 40 quid and I havent looked back! 1 of the zips is a little dodgy, but otherwise in perfect condition. Once you go Hoofer, you never go back! Great bag!

    Hoofer is a great bag - plenty of pockets without being over-bulky.

    It's also a favourite among caddies for the comfort of the strap system when carrying.
