I got a Flak coming in about a week. I'll let you all know how it is once I get my hands on it.

if you want to hear some crazy foreign language guy talk about how it's the exact same as a Grip Bag! ha ha- the more the merrier though, i like their color selection- what's the price? looks high quality, with a few extra pockets if you put it side by side with the grip- a bit bigger- also has inner disc compartment dividers which is nice.

Stick with Mystery Ranch if at all possible. The owner and bag designer are very cool people....

I found the HYZER BOMB bag decent looking for a back pack.

It didn't work so great for highlands the first time through. The Cart comes with the tires prefilled with air. I used it at Highlands and didn't like it for a few spots. I then let some air pressure out of the tires at Newton and that helped with the bouncing. I might try it at Highlands again. There are some courses that it won't work well on but the majority of them it will be fine. There was no way it would have worked at Hyzer Creek. If you look at most of the courses around here that we play it will be fine at most all of them.

I modded this with an internal pvc frame

holds 16-18 in the bottom,3 putters on the front pouch, 2 32oz nalgenes on the sides, room for a small cooler on the top or another 10 discs. very comfortable.
