    For me, weight, storage space (like it available for those potential rainy rounds), then top cuff (prefer 4), and finally full length dividers. I've found that most of the lighter weight bags suffer with durability. And also most of the lighter bags don't offer much storage. Never understood that...never thought empty storage would weigh much. My last 3 stand/carry bags have been Titleist.

    I just got my 4up carry/stand bag. In 2 words, I love it. While weight is the most important, I also don't like an external foot, . I've had too many that have problems over many years. I love the full dividers, but most love and was most surprised about it having a single strap option. I'm not a fan of the "Houdini" straight jacket strap system. No offense to those who like them, and I know most youngsters have been raised on them and love them. Well I'm a single strap man being a "little" older. So Thank You Titleist for giving me the surprise of finding that single strap tucked inside. My go to is a Titleist mid-staff bag on and electric pushcart 90% of the time (perfect if you don't have to carry it). But when I forget to charge the battery, or travel somewhere else I have my 4up in the trunk nice and light and great to carry.

    The support connections at top of bag (one vs two) is paramount. I've had two bags fail with only one support connection.

    Second is the ability to support a water bottle.
  5. I would like to see the 8 way again on a stand bag. Still rocking a bag from 2011 since I haven't found one from titleist.

    love the staff stand bag BUT do not use it. With only 4 way dividers, clubs are always stuck in bottom, always yanking on clubs to get them out. Make Staff Stand bag 14 way and you've got a winner. awesome looking bag that needs more dividers.
  7. Pockets for me. I personally can't stand dividers and would much prefer a 2 or 3 way divider.

    I don't like the 4 way divider. I prefer 6 It's easier to divide up my clubs and have a designated slot for my putter

    Full length dividers that work really well is my most important / must have feature. I am 65 yrs old and ALWAYS walk and carry my clubs.

    I want a separate putter compartment, but I am not crazy about the 14 top dividers. I am on my second Titleist stand bag, but I will consider a different brand to protect my "Scotty" when I replace my current bag.
  11. I have exclusively owned stand bags for 22 years. Now I am contending on the mini-tour with one. I have caddied and competed with stand bags by choice. The stand bag offers grab n go versatility to help me save energy on hot summer days and promotes better flow of play.

    The stand is the most important aspect of the bag to me. The stand has progressed alot. I have seen more stand failures than anything else. The larger style rubber based feet create tripping hazards on congested areas like confined teeing areas. If the base is designed poorly then slipping becomes more likely on hills and hard surfaces such as cartpaths, resulting in club damages. Pockets should be geared towards the flow of which a golfer plays 18 holes. Pockets should be purpose driven and should be discreet and uncluttered. Every stand bag should include a true secret stash pocket! A range finder should be immediately accessible from the point of which the golfer releases the top cuff while standing the bag. There should be waterproofing incorporated into every single stand bag! Any water bottle pockets should fully prevent condensation from forming on my grips. The cold beverage pocket should not be located in immediate vicinity of the ball pockets to avoid unsightly temperature variances. The stand bag must be silent and stealthy with minimal clicking and creaking from cheaply bonded components. The strap system must be designed for easy shouldering and include good balance points and an initial leveraging point of contact where top strap meets bag. The exterior of the bag should not cause excessive wear marks on clothes from inconsistent transitioning. Hard surface materials such as rivets or triple stitched seams should not cause excessive rubbing against hip while carrying, mounting, or dismounting the golf bag.

    Go walk along the ocean, in the mountains, on the prairie, in the desert, among the redwoods. Walk with friends, family, and winners...WALK ON!!!

    I missed the
    Voting block but I think a slot for the putter would be most helpful. There just so much you can do with a Stand bag . I find myself always digging the putter in the
    Bottom of the
    Pile.

    It would be great to have a small pocket specifically to hold ball markers/change. I love my current Titleist carry bag but it seems I'm always digging to the bottom of the pockets trying to find a ball marker.

    Weight is by far the most important. I only need 1 pocket. Basically I need a Sunday bag, with double straps and a stand.

    For me it's weight 1st. Divider 2nd and Stand 3rd.

    A seven or eight way divider and ability to fit my push cart.

    Walk 9 holes twice a week in Florida. Weight is number one followed by comfort of the strap.

    Two features, weight and ability to get clubs in and out of bag. I hate it when you have to struggle getting clubs into and out of the bag, regardless of how many dividers there are at the top. (4,6,8,14, etc.) The dividers need to go all the way to the bottom of the bag so clubs don't bind going in and out.

    1. Weight
    2. Full length dividers

    I realize those features work against each other but the Titleist Ultra-lightweight has a good balance.
  20. A combination of divided sections, stand, very padded strap and lightest weight possible would provide an excellent product.
