I am curious too. I have had my revo bag for at least 4 years now. It's just starting to get really beat. I would check out another bag from them if they are still up and running. If not I'll just buy what all the cool kids have.....

Four years in a very good resume for any bag.
I bought a new Fade "Dude" bag in late July...The first thing to rip was the mesh pocket/ flap. Then the bottom of putter pocket split, wear all around the bottom. Large pocket opposite water has pulled away and split... Its covered now duct tape!In fairness I golf a lot! I can say four times a week..Thin canvas, weak seams..
Four years is above n beyond servicable duty!
So many discs, so little time...

Bill does that mean you aquired a Revo bag and like it ?

Nick , I agree with what you said , incidently I still can't tell if Revo is in exsistence. Oh , I see you have Poultney VT as part of your location. I am regularly in Bomoseen VT. Is the Killington coarse year round ?

I got my revolution bag in 2001 (I think). All I've had to do to it is spray the bottom with some vinyl spray because it was wearing through and I replaced the frame dowels inside when the screws stripped out of the originals and couldn't be tightened anymore. The colour has faded, but nothing has ripped and the zips all work well still. I upgraded to the quad shocks, but it is hard to complain about a bag with that much longevity.
Sometimes I wonder, "Why is that disc getting bigger?". Then it hits me.

Eric, I am taking some time off from DG this week, and headed to Poultney AND Killington for a week of skiing. It looked open when I was there three weeks ago during the blizzard, but I wasn 't prepared to play in 3 feet. I will stop in sometime between Wednesday and Sunday, check it out again.
I'm hoping it might be more playable this time... If I can sneak away from the family for a couple hours...I'll let you know.
I think I want a Revo bag, they stand the test of time... The MOST important criteria...unless you don't mind buyin' a bag every year.
So many discs, so little time...

I know I'm going off topic here for a moment...so first...I do like the Revo bags. I've only seen a couple, looked good, but the testimonials about their longevoty is overwhelming evidence of the quality...IMHO.

ERic...onward to Killington. Their course is open. The course is commingled with a cross country ski park, so its shared.
I called, and the gal says the ski crew are golfers too, and she thought the tees were cleaned!

"Disc Golf Review rates BCODG one of the top three Disc Golf Courses in the State of Vermont"

I wonder what are those top three courses in VT?? And I think using DGCR's data is misleading.

All I know the best ones are Sugarbush (two courses), Blackfalls/Cherry Hills (two courses), North Calais, and Smugglers Notch - Brewster Ridge.

I wouldn't consider BCODG as the best ones but good one to play if you are in the area.

Sorry for the topic drift but I didn't start it!!
Tee Off and Pay ATTENTION!! :shock:
