Hi guys. I am looking to buy a new bag and have narrowed it down to two I really like. Would love to know if anyone is using either bag:

a. Nike Performance Hybrid Carry Bag
or
b. Wilson Staff Nexus Carry Stand Bag

Both quite pricey so I want to make sure I pick the right one. I love the look of both but like the club separators or the Nike and the much sturdier stand system of the Wilson. Input would be most welcome on use of both brands and always happy to take other recommendations too. I rarely use trolleys so my preference is a mid size bag that I can carry and it must have a decent stand system. My strap on stand is really sub-par *bom-tish*

A bit late in replying but I've only just seen this post.

I've got the Nike Performance bag and I can't fault it for storage, quality and price. I've had it for around a year now and there are no signs of any wear. It can be a bit clangy because of the dividers as all of the heads tend to clatter each other when walking but that is more due to the dividers than the bag itself.

So then guys the masters whos got what down?

Ive got a couple quid on kooch each way with a 1 each way on garcia westwood and donald

Who fancies a new champion this year?

E/w bets on Donaldson, Day and Cabrera. I was torn between Day and Bradley.

I always host the masters with a couple of mates and we all bet on 3/4 players each, but no ones allowed the same player to make it interesting!

I've got:

- £10 Dustin
- £10 Keegan
- £10 Donald
- £10 Garcia

Dustin and Keegan for their long hitting, Donald's got a new swing and looks superb with the putter as well and Garcia is playing superb all round.

I think Garcia will do it this year!

Also playing on Friday, Saturday and got the monthly medal on Sunday

Before it all started yesterday I had my money on Jason Day completely forgetting about his thumb injury. Shame as he was playing so well + consistent before he had it. I wouldn't put it passed bubba to take it back from Adam but also think Rory could be in the loop.

I have a £1 EW on - Garcia, Mickelson, Rose, Adam Scott, and Bubba. Put a £5free bet on Rory to win too.

Is it too much to ask that one of the cretins shouting 'Get in the hole' before the player has even struck the ball gets smashed in the face? Just once is all I'm asking

Spieth playing well, as is Bubba. Shaping up to be a cracking back 9.

 

[el_dazza]

Bubba goes from 2 behins to 2 ahead in 2 holes. Crazy. I said Spieth would melt under the pressure but a long way to go yet.

 

[McBain]

Spieth into the water at 12, in Bubba's hands now.

Bit of an anticlimax from a TV viewers point of view but an impressive win for Bubba Watson.

 

[manic111]

"Elementary for Watson". Really, Monty, was that necessary?

 

[Mr Joshua]

A very entertaining final day and a £35 win, looking forward to the open.

I'm getting fitted for a new set of titleist 714 ap2's and a new driver tomorrow, can't wait!

It's about the time of year when I consider dusting off the clubs once more. Pretty much only play during the summer months these days...

Looking at a new bag, what about this. Anyone got it?

 

[DanTheMan]

I've also dusted off my clubs after a failed attempt at winter golf once again. Shot low 90s in my first round of the year which is about my best round ever, it just shows how golf is 90% mental.

I've got no experience of the bag above but can highly recommend the Nike Performance carry bag.

 

[Fuggan]

Oh I came across that one earlier and shortlisted it, will have another look at it.

Summer golfing ftw

 

[Fuggan]

Looks nice, and only 104 quid on Amazon. Can't decide between the grey/volt one and the black/grey!

 

[kefkef]

I've always liked nike bags with the 14 way divider, far better than the taylormade divide bag I have now. Always worth a chat with your local pro, I get discount rates thang make my G25 drive cheaper than most of the online stores now after getting it 12mths ago!

 

[Fuggan]

Yeah, just ordered the grey/volt one from Amazon. £99! Will post pics when it's here.

First game of golf in about 9 months today at Turnberry - Sunshine and very strong winds. All good fun with some mates (£100 for a 4 ball)

Some quiet trousers to go with the sunshine!
