Golfers, what bag have you used that you really like?

Looking at the Sun Mountain C-130 on eBay. Can't tell from pics or descriptions that I've read online how big the insulated cooler pocket is.

Want another cart bag. Also looking at the lightweight titleist cart bag, bag boy revolver, Nike performance cart bag, and the Bridgestone cart bag (small cooler).

thanks in advance for your opinions/suggestions.

Haven't shopped for a new golf bag in years so I just want to make sure I understand your comments.

Do golf bags nowadays come with an insulated pocket to act as a cooler? If so, that's probably a better idea in theory than in practice. Sounds like a mess.

Anyway, I've always had a Ping lightweight carry bags even though I never carry my bag anymore. Easier to haul around and takes up considerably less space than a cart bag when its i your trunk or you're going on vacation, etc...

plus, even carry bags have more than enough room for all your golfing junk.

I used a Titleist stand bag. It's pretty good. The only thing I don't like about it is the legs kick out too far. I think the Ping Hoofer is best stand bag.

Yeah, a lot of bags now have an insulated cooler pocket. Some are vented to allow water to escape. Haven't had one myself, but others really like them. Plus I always am drinking when playing and it's a nice way to sneak on beers.

I use the Ping Hoofer carry stand bag and have for the past 10+ years. Only bag I probably will ever need. Highly recommended.

Ogio makes the best bags. Many people like the bag to match the set, or at least the irons. I have 2 hoofers and they have found the closet since last Christmas.
