I've been eyeing this bag at sportcheck. It's a lightweight taylormade bag with 6 pockets and bout 4 pockets. It's a bag stand for sale at $79.99 (i'm only looking at sportcheck cuz i know some ppl there)

I'm using an Ogio Ozone bag. Love it. Really light, looks decent, and it has the 3 ball carrier thing for when I need to grab another ball quickly when mine plunks in the water :P

Just make sure you get a carry bag if you're walking, cart bag if you're hooking it to a cart. And if you're walking, weight can matter at the end of a sunny 18. But it's not that important.
mmmm Sun Mountain 3.5 Superlight but I can vouch for the Hoofers I bought one second hand so it must be like 8 years old and it's still in OK shape |

Ah I'm just wondering bout the side pockets anyways. Other than balls and your gloves, what else do you use them for? Maybe a pen and paper to keep score?

if i'm walking my bag would have the minimal amount of stuff inside it but i've been using my clicgear instead these days. Too lazy lol

ogio makes the best bag. they have the wood system for your clubs. feel sturdier too. more pockets too. pockets for your drinks, slots for your tees, zipperless pockets for your balls. go to golftown and have a look.
but in the end, the bag won't improve your game. its the last thing i look at buying when i'm golf shopping.

Has anyone here driven up to play at Predator Ridge? I'm going back to Vancouver this summer and two of my golf buddies were thinking of driving up to do it.

I haven't been back to Vancouver in nearly a year, has the slowing economy driven down green fees?

Last year we played tobiano and the bear on our golf trip. Tobiano was awesome, we might try it again this year. Last year it was really windy when we played it.
We were thinking of going to the Kelowna/Kamloops area again this year. Anyone have any recommendations on a nice course that we should try. We go up on Friday and come back on Sunday. We play golf on Saturday and Sunday.

We play golf on Saturday and Sunday. | In the Kamloops area, Talking Rock, Sun Rivers, The Dunes, and Tobiano make a great golf trip. A lot of people that go to Kamloops play those 4 courses because they are all fairly unique and they're all pretty different from eachother.
In Kelowna, Black Mountain (brand new) has been getting good reviews, Kelowna Springs, Tower Ranch, and Gallagher's Canyon are all popular as well. And of Course the Bear and the Quail.

Wow that sounds like quite an exciting trip! And Kamloops is somewhat closer than Predator Ridge right (its closer to Vernon I'm thinking?)
