Disc Golf Bags?

The same thing that is happening to flick's bag is happening to mine. I still think revolution bags are the best though.

By the way, Anyone have any deals on the revolution team bag in Hot Pink? I want to get a bag for the girlfriend, and since she has finally decided to take it seriously, i figured I should reward her.

Will they be making a smaller bag in pink? My wife doesn't like carrying a gigantic bag.

Not to sound like a broker record, but the Revolution bag is the best overall bag out there. They are expensive, but I know a lot of people who have paid $60 for a bag and they are falling apart after a few weeks of use.

I would also recomment getting Phenix Quadshocks for the bag. It is a dual shoulder strap that easily replaces the single strap that will come with the bag. Very comfortable, and makes carrying a bigger bag much easier on your back and shoulders.

Revolution for SURE!

The Revolution is a sweet bag and the quality is very high indeed. However mine is approx. a year and a half old and the frame is starting to wear through the bottom of the bag. Right after I purchased mine I noticed they started to reinforce the bottom with some sort of heavy vinyl which might take care of this problem though.

I have a hand towel in the bottom of my bag and it's stopped wearing through. The bottom of the higher end bags are much better.

Revolution bags have to be the best bags on the market.

The Club Bag comes in purple. It's a nice size bag. Not too big, but still has the internal rack. I really like mine.

I've said it before, cheaper isn't cheaper if you have to replace it. I know someone who has used a Rev. bag around 10 years. I've had mine for a couple years and it looks like the day I bought it.

I think the first Hot pink Revolution was back in the early 1980s.

I brough these Revolution bag at Worlds '99 (Rochester) and it still holds my disc, keeping it dry during rain and snow days. It hasnt show any wear threads or others, only color is fading from those brutal sunlights. I had some thoughts looking at other bags as replacement. None can replace my Bag. Myself and other Revolution owners will give you all an advice, Buy Revolution! You'll be happy! It'll serve you and your discs well.


Viva La Revolution!

wow, i dont think disc golfers have ever before agreed so completely on anything!

[Valarie24]

Yeahhhh Hot Pink DG bag!! Revolution is looking for more female friendly disc golf bag colors, so keep lookin out, i'll relay that message about the smaller bags, its definatly a great idea for the beginning to intermediate female disc golfers who only start out w/ a few discs..

That's brilliant. Thanks Lou.

happy birfday

The Innova tour bag fell apart on me less than 3 months after I purchased it.......the zippers quit working, the places to put your straps ripped off, and a few other little things. I hear they have redesigned them though.....wish i had waited 3 months to get a good quality one instead of wasting my 60 bucks.

discman, you might want to get with Innova if your bag came apart as you stated. I think it was on the "Ask Dave D." thread in equipment a couple other people had similiar complaints and Dave D. addressed them individually with replacement or credit towards the redesigned bag. You should probably contact him directly through his thread because he does a great job of standing behind his products.

What are some of the opinions on the PDGA bag? It seems to have all the features that the top of line Revo or Gateway have, but I don't know about the quality or materials used.

I've only seen the smaller bags and the materials are close to what they use on smaller Innova bags which is nowhere near as sturdy as the Gateway bag I have.

Exactly, I am now on my 3rd Tour bag since October. First time the strap connectors ripped off, second time stitching fell apart.

What was great about is, Harold and Dave both stood behind their product and replaced my bag free of charge, one time overnighting my bag so I could have it in time for the Bowling Green Am Championship.

What happened to me was I got the last bags of two different design flaws. Terrible luck, but with owners who stand behind something, I cannot help but continue to support Innova. And talk about the ROOM in the tour bag. Come on, you can cram almost 30 discs in this thing. But I only carry 20 because I want room for towels and other stuff. The Revo club bag is a tad smaller, but still a nice bag.

the bottle holder is coming off of my tour bag i got last summer

I've had my PDGA bag for over two years now and it's still going strong. I did find out that the little loops on the front aren't strong enough to clip the front two backpack straps too. They lasted about 4 months before I had to switch to the main loops.

I've been really happy with it, perfect size, goodly amount of pockets, plenty durable, and reasonably priced.

I've been really liking my Gateway Backpack...I'd use it regardless (Gotta support sponsors!!) but it makes the load feel so much lighter, not to mention it holds everything I need and is durable as hell.

In reply to everyone who is talking about the redesigned tour bag with reenforced strap holdings, I purchased one in March, and in May they started ripping. It was a new model red tour bag, and has started falling apart at the threads all over, that is why my vote is going for revolution at this point.

however i have been in contact with Innova, and we are trying to work something out. I love innova, and love the bag in terms of size, and everything, but I guess I have been an unlucky one also.

Revolution all the way. I am on my second bag. My first was great and held up to three years of golf without any big problem. The only problem I had with it was the frame did wear through the bottom (new ones have a stronger bottom) and I could only fit a 32oz. Gatorade in upside down. There was nothing wrong with the bag and I still use it as a backup/glow bag/cart bag. I bought a new Carolina at worlds for the new bottom and being able to carry two 32 oz. bottles. I got 3+ years out of my first bag and still could use it if I wanted too. If you buy one you will not be replacing it like you have to with other bags.

I've had a gateway Backpack bag for about 2 years now.. Aside from it not fitting on my back that well(just never sits right and i can't use the outer pouch for putters) IT has held up veyr nicely. I used to play everyday and it hasn't shown any tearing at all except for one padding of a strap just recently.
I would recommend the other gateway bags over the backpack bag though just on the fact that it isn't comfortable to wear, but it does last.

Been using a PDGA bag for two years now and I am very satisfied. Starting to sag in the middle recently so I added a thin piece of teflon to the bottom, works well.

Mini Revolution Bag with Quad Shocks !!!!!!!

Awesome. Holds 12-14 plus water bottle and towel.

Doesn't hurt my back or shoulders. Can run with it on if needed to.

Light weight and very comfortable.

Can run with it on if needed to.

LOL!
