If they are on my card they would make me be the designated scorer.

Yeah and in this version its not how many shots it took to complete, but how many beers you got done between tee and green. And on the scorecard you get a multiplier bonus of 18 for finishing or whichever hole you pass out on.

Oh, and as scorekeeper... you are responsible for remembering everyone's name and making sure that when we get really drunk and stupid that we know our own names. Also you will be the secretary for all incoming phone calls from girlfriends/wives after we all are wasted and have to be creative as to why we haven't made it home yet. Think you DG game is ready for such an intense level of skill requirement?

You know I got the way to turn it into a great drinking game. Mini-drinking-disc-golf. You find a "tee" area and have to chug a beer... now stand on the can and have someone flick the side (very cool way to crush it)... now you find the nearest trash can and play mini golf with your beer can til its in the garbage. Repeat with as many beers as you have. No drinking during a hole, you have to hole out and find a new tee spot.

Time to find a good trash can filled park and have a tournament. Practice round mandatory. Shouldn't be a big deal since the whole goal is to throw garbage away. Could even call if community service. "We walked around and threw away 6 cases of beer cans today at the park." Just fail to mention you caused the mess too.

He's not talking about disc's, he's talking about cargo room, which the revo bags can't hold a candle to a G-way tour bag when i comes to that.

Revolution should just come out with the Pimp Sack in honor of their #1 "sales rep".

I happen to know an Innova Team Champion member that prefers the Gateway backpack to anything else.

**** you guys really like to rag on me dont you. You must feel real good about yourselves after you make fun of me. Im glad I could be of service to you. I have never carried a Gateway bag thus i dont know the CARGO room of the bag. He did say he was looking for more DISC room so he could carry discs for friends and what not.

Im sure they are great bags i just LOVE the Revolution bags and wont ever carry anything else.

How much more cargo room does the gateway bag have over the revolution?

The Gateway Tour bag is like a trunk of a car. It holds so much stuff. I think the Revolution bag is a little better looking design and they are both very durable.

You can't go wrong with a Revolution or a Gateway bag.

Well Steve, I know you're just dying for me to respond to this. No telling what would have given me that idea. As a matter of fact I was going to respond last night after I read all the other new posts. Then I decided I was hungry and left my computer on while I went to get something to eat. When I got back, this was the PM I had recieved.
Quote:
You going to respond to my post or are you just going to ignore it because i made you look like a jackass

Since you just couldn't wait for a response, I figured it would do you good to stew for a day or so.

I carry a Gateway Tour bag. It's my second one as a matter of fact. I won my first one when Stokley came to town running the Discraft Doubles the summer of '97. I replaced it as my main bag back in '03 (I think) with another Gateway tour bag. There was nothing seriously wrong with it but it was a little faded and a couple of the seams were beginning to fray. I still use it as my glow bag. It holds all my glow discs and a soft sided six pack cooler inside (I play glow at a private course so I can play discs and drink beer without upsetting any park guys or cops).

I don't use Quads. I had a pair of the older ones but they ripped after about a year of use. I have seen some of the newer ones and it looks like they have reinforced them to solve that problem but I'm not in a hurry to buy another pair after my first ones blew out. I have a pair of used GolfPak straps that I traded for and they work just fine. I will agree that they aren't as comfortable as Quads but why spend the money to buy a product that I don't trust after my earlier experience.

The reason for my earlier post wasn't to bust on Revolution, they make good bags as well, but it was in response to your childish badgering of Lowe when he was asking about a Discraft bag. Ask about a Discraft bag and here comes Pimp...

Save yourself the time and effort and frustration of buying a bag that you wont like or thats not going to hold up and buy a Revolution bag. This will be the one and only bag you will ever have to buy unless of course you want 2 bags or you cut this one with a chainsaw. If you spend the 150 right from the start and get the Carolina Team bag with quadshocks you wont EVER have to worry about a bag again. I have carried 3 or 4 different bag before my Revolution and I will tell you that i will NEVER carry another bag as long as i play disc golf.

Buy Revolution and you will not regret it. Plus on the new Rev bags you can hook the quads up how they were meant to be hooked up

What about the Revolution Mini???

This isn't the first time that you've done things like this. It just happened that this time I was in the wrong mood. I think I may also have offended Lowe because of his revival of a very old thread. Lowe, if I did, I do apologize.

I'll go ahead and answer your other thread here too. If I had $200 to spend on a disc bag, I wouldn't have to judging from the length of time my original Gateway bag has lasted. But just supposing that my bag was stolen, or lost in a fire, or abducted by aliens, or whatever what if you can come up with, I'd get...







(dramatic pause)








another Gateway Tour bag. And I'm not sponsored by them or anyone else for that matter. Yeah I realize that Revo is the most popular bag out there. That doesn't matter to me. I'd say for my money that the Gateway bag is the best value. I don't have to have the coolest bag on the course and be like everyone else. It's disc golf not a fashion show. All I need is a durable bag that will hold my discs, towel, Gatorade, and cigarettes. But you guys buy what you want. I'm not a rep so I'm not going to suggest anything to anyone but will share my own experiences when asked to.

This is a bit off subject but Rodney I know what you are saying about the Quad shocks. The first ones seemed to rip a little quick for my taste but I bought some of the new ones and they are much better. Looks like they will be able to make it through at the very least a year of heavy use before ripping.

I agree the newer Quads look more durable. I know my old Quads were quite comfortable while they lasted. But hey, my straps are doing fine, they will probably be replaced by some Quads when these die but the price was right for the ones I have right now. All I gave was 2 discs I wasn't throwing and were just taking up space in a box. I figured I didn't have anything to lose.

I love my Gateway Backpack bag. It is one of the older versions. I need to fix one thing though. One of the PVC pipes has come out of the frame. But that is easily fixed....i just need to get some PVC pipe bond/glue.

Ok..I lied. There is one more thing I don't like and that is the front putter pouch. The zippers unzip too easily if there are 2 putters in there and there has been a time or two that my putters have fallen out the bag when I go to pick it up off of the ground.

The problem with that thinking is your 70 dollar bag will most likely fall apart in a year then your going to have to spend another 70 to either get the same bag or you make choose to buy a Revolution and then youll spend 115. Either way you just spent more then it would cost you to buy a Revolution in the first place.

I have a new theory. I think Revolution is the best and so do alot of other people but from this thread im going to say the 2nd best bag is the Gateway Tour or the Gateway Backpack but i still reccomend you get the Revolution
