I’m looking to replace an older mid size tour bag. I am weighing the cart and mid-tour bags. Using a motorized cart, stand bags end up angled with legs not resting against the back.
There is the hybrid bag. Any experience actually using this item in a push cart.? I’m trying to avoid taking my cart int a local store to see it will sit oriented straight out.

I’ve played a midsize bag from spring to autumn for the last four years, I used a different bag for winter so as not to ruin it. After this winter, using the 14 way divider of my winter bag, I got annoyed with my midsize and club tangle.

So I’ve switched to a stadry 14 cart bag. What a brilliant bag and keeps me clubs easy acces. Would highly recommend this to others.

I have both the midsize staff and the premium stand bag and love them both for the push cart and the rider. Double straps on premium are legit!!!!”

I like both bags, but currently rock the staff bag and just love it, can't beat the room it offers, not to mention the look is awesome!

I am definitely in the mid-size Titleist bag camp. It has all the room I need and Titleist produces the best looking bags around!!
Plus it fits perfectly on my push cart and also if I ride.

I had the staff bag for a couple of years and switched to the mid size for this season. I think the mid size is perfect, it got enough room, weight and is really smooth when traveling. I usually don´t have that much stuff with me when playin, just a few balls, water, rainjacket so i think the mid size is well enough.www.titleist.com/.../vqnxlwt9yh5lx4nhmq8m

Helpful thread to stumble across. I have had a number of Players 4 / 4+ stand bags in the past and all have suffered from the drooping legs after a while. I still have a Players 4 StaDry that I use over winter as its just so light and the waterproofing is ideal. In summer though, I swapped to a Vessel Players IV for carry days and a Titleist Premium Cart StaDry for use on an electric trolley (Motocaddy M1 here in the UK). Due to a mid-life crisis, I changed car and the Premium Cart doesn't fit in the back of it so have been using the Vessel on the trolley and finding it is rubbing around the top cuff so am looking for a bag specific for trolley. The Midsize is the preference. Just need to try and see if it fits in the car first!

Matt, any chance you can tell me the total height of the midsize bag, as well as the height from the base to the flat/recessed portion near the top that would sit against a push cart. Want to double check this will sit well on my push cart given the shape of the bag's back. Thank you,

I've had a Titleist midsize tour bag for 15 years and the zippers held up well. I like to walk too with a push cart, but have found that the bag is not cart friendly because the side zippers are in the way of the cart straps.
Also the small side pockets do not expand so you can't really put much in there. The back pockets are nice but useless when in a cart because of access issues. Other than that, i loved it but over the years it has been too heavy for me to carry to the car. I have recently purchased the Titleist Premium Stand bag and i like it better - the pockets are more generous and much lighter to carry because of the double strap. Believe me, when you parked far away, you will wish that you a double strap carry bag :)

[quote user="Jim Z"]Do not buy one of these bags. It only comes with a one year warranty. One of the zippers will wear out and Titleist just told me they do not do repairs, take it to a shop that does luggage repairs. They told me no they do not fix these.

I’ve had mine 2 years now with no issues, sure the paint on the zips has worn a little but otherwise it’s perfectly fine. I know a few guys at our club with the same midsize bag, again with no issues. One year warranties on bags are pretty standard.

I have had a lot of golf bags. But i definitely like my Titleist midsize better than all the others. It fits in a cart nicely. My favorite is it's a really good carry bag and It looks good, too.I've never had an issue with it. I've had it for 4 Good years.So I will definitely buy another.one When it's time.

I would suggest the bigger bag since you want all the extras.

I have both, mainly because of Team Titleist loyalty the local guys in the area take care of me, I grab when they're between cycles. They're both great bags, the Mid-Size fits the cart a little better. The full staff bag looks great embroidered with club emblems though. If you don't mind people watching you through the lens thinking you're a "player", go for it.

If you're a walker with push cart or rider, go big or go home. The more pockets and overall size will provide way more space than you could possibly fill. Just my 2 cents.

I have tow mid-size bags and have not had any zipper issues. Most zipper issues occur due to over packing golf bags. In support of Titleist's one warranty, I had another issue with one of my bags within the one years period, had proof of purchase and they replaced it. Their customer service is second to none. I currently have four Titleist bags. Two midsize, one Cart 14 and one lightweight.

[quote user="Mike W"]I’m a new Titleist AP1 owner and loving them. I want a new bag to go with them. I really like the Mid Staff Bag from what I can see in pictures and read. I had been looking at the Deluxe Cart Bag until I stumbled onto this. I love the small handle that helps in moving the bag around which seems to be disappearing from other bags in favor of a couple of “collar” handles which seem awkward.
Aside from your name... is getting the flag put on your bag just another one of the options? Is the TT logo also just another option or are there any specific requirements to having that too? Thanks!

If you want the TT logo on your bag, it needs to be ordered at the time of purchase, just like your name. I have it on my belly panel. They do not do embroidery on bags after they have been purchased. As far as other items, you can check with the Titleist account where you order your bag and they can check with Titleist to see what you can get. They do exceptional work. You might be able to get the circle TT logo done aftermarket, BUT they might be leery of infringement on patents and if they do they will charge an up charge to set up the logo will go upwards of $50 plus the cost of actually doing the logo.

I’ve had both and prefer mid-size. Can fit everything I want/need and not as bulky to carry around.

Thanks for all of the helpful feedback! I decided on the mid size staff bag (Titleist is embroidering my name on it) pretty pumped to get it.

I am a Titleist mid-size staff bag guy! I had the first gen one, the second gen one, and just got the 3rd gen (2017) one. So I have owned them all. It's the best bag out there anywhere! The staff bag is just too much bag for me and doesn't fit well on a cart where the midsize fits perfect. There isn't anything you put in the full size staff you can't put in a mid staff bag. Feel free to message me and I can give you my number for any questions. I promise if you get the mid staff your gonna be glad you did! Cheers!

I had mid size and delux cart bags bag but very quickly replaced them with a 2016 9.5 mid size staff bag due to the first ones getting wear holes from rubbing on the cart. I was concerned about the staff bag at first because is doesn't have as many pockets; however, it actually has more storage space. I carry a LOT of things in my, and still have room to spare. Go with the staff bag and you want be sorry!

I love my mid size staff bag it has plenty of pockets with a lot of room to put all that great Titleist gear in side of it. If I had a complaint it would be that there is not a cooler pocket to put a bottle of water

I'm with JR too, I've got the mid-staff and use it on an remote control push cart. Love it. I've had it about 4 years now. I'm very happy with the quality and I don't know if I could fill up all the compartments. The 6 way divider is great for organizing the clubs, the the way it sits on the cart it presents a perfect pocket for my laser range finder to sit up with quick access, ball pocket, valuables pocket, side pockets for my rain gear, extra sweater, smaller pocket for tees and ball markers, it's got everything. I bought it off the floor before I was smart enough to order it and get my name and Team Titleist logo on it, but otherwise it's great. Can't speak to the full staff bag but this mid-staff has all the space I need.

I cannot stress enough how happy I am with the midsize staff bag. Most of the golfers i interact with always tell me about the amount of pockets their bags have, but I am all about quality over quantity. The room in the midsize staff bag is legit, and I love the 6 club compartment system. Having the back pocket (Where my name is stitched) is super important for me because it's where I keep my rain gear. LOVE the valuables pocket (fleece lined like a boss, lol) and the bag is the perfect size for push and riding carts. The only thing I have against this bag is that I baby it and my buddies make fun of me for it :) But when you spend a whole summer working minimum wage at a local muni for your new titleist gear, you'll baby them too, lol :) www.titleist.com/.../dokdykmqbgdljhwlclgs www.titleist.com/.../l3gomlxibrlq3nimg4r4
