    Bought a brand new 14-way bag to replace my 2013 version and I am somewhat disappointed.

    1. The dividers are not full length like the previous versions causing the clubs to get caught on each other several times a round. 2. The straps do not hold. With the nice weather in AZ I've been walking the course a bit more and I have to re-tighten the straps after every 5 holes or so. The new straps have a nylon feel that simply do not hold the weight of the bag. Previous model do not have this problem.

    The bag look great, but I wish Titleist would have tested better. Full length dividers would cost next to nothing and weigh next to nothing. Strap is just material.

    Let me know if your experience differs.

    Im with you man, i have been using titleist 14 way carry bags for the last 7 seasons. Ive had 2 and got 3.5 seasons out of each. I am able to play a lot from april until november and i walk the majority of the time and for the most part the bags upheld the wear an tear. After this past season i was in the market for a new bag and waited for the new Titleist bags to come out in the late fall.

    I really wasn't happy with the product, the colors the features or the designs. I just didn't think titleist was offering the best golf bag i could buy for what I wanted. If I'm going to spend $200, then i want to be happy with the bag. I ended up with the new hoofer. I honestly believe titleist has a lot of the best stuff on the market, but the new bags didn't seem that way.

    I realize no bag will ever be to my exact specifications unless i get to design it, so i have to work with whats available. I am happy about my new bag, but do feel funny with 14 titleist clubs in a different bag. But hey, Im not an ambassador, I am a consumer!

    Would have to agree with comments above. I walk 95% of the time, and given the bright minds at Titleist unsure as to why there is not a Lightweight Stand-Bag with the following spec's:
    - 4 lbs. at most
    - 4 section divider or design that let's the golfer win the "tug- a - war" during club removable and placement
    - Stable and durable legs ( which have improved over previous models )
    - A carry-friendly dual strap system
    - Durable zippers and some type of lining in the pockets to combat rain
    - A nice selection of color combination - one of the reasons I haven't purchased a new bag.

    Granted you make one of the better stand bags on the market, but never known you to settle on being best of mediocre.

    I had the strap issue and did a quick fix that worked and hasn't slipped yet: set you strap where you want it and then run the remaining tail of the strap BACK through the plastic clip and it will hold. I'll send a picture when I get home later if needed.
