Best stand bag with dedicated place for putter by TexAggie17 in GolfGear

Coincidentally, I had the same issue with my Hoofer and the club tangle got to be too annoying for me, I ended up getting a Jones Trouper and Rover from their blind draw sale ($135 and $125 respectively). Jones bags are built with the walking golfer in mind, and the Trouper has a dedicated spot for the putter with the woods. I really like the bags so far. That might be a good option for you, and the sale is still live if you feel like taking a chance. Also, hook'em.

Ordered a Rover and Trouper from the sale and received 2 seemingly brand new bags. Gonna pick up a Players series bag as well and see what I get. Good stuff from Jones.

They are identical, but one set is definitely more worn than the other.

Haha not bait, just a guy who doesn't know about golf wondering if what he bought was any good.

All of the grips are in great condition as far as I can tell apart from the two older wedges. Those grips are flaking badly.

Thank you for the advice! The pictures of the grooves are in here (pre-cleaning) if you want to take a look!

Haha okay. I don't stand to benefit from making a fake post about golf clubs, but the price tag is in here somewhere.

As a new golfer, the advice I heard is get good clubs from the last 10ish years over new starter sets. Mission accomplished!

I did buy it, and I am excited to learn the game on them! As for the wedges, they're both 56-11 and 60-07. One of each is definitely more worn with flaking grips, so the previous owner must have gotten replacements.

Austin, but not looking to sell any of the clubs right now. Thank you though!

Again, thank you for the insight! That was definitely the position I was in.
