Ping Hoofer Extreme

Summary:
Do NOT buy this bag. The rod that controls the stand broke after a few months, as well as one of the zippers, rendering that pocket useless. It now looks good in my closet, but I can't use it on the course.

Customer Service:
Customer service was unable to replace the bag. To have the bag "repaired", it would cost $33.00 plus S&H. This company charges enough for their equipment that it should stand behind their product, without additional fees. Callaway has been much better in replacing defective equipment. I just bought Ping G10 irons, but I'll never purchase another Ping product, based on this experience.

Summary:
Looks to me like some of these reviews are from ping, and the others are from anti-ping.... Well, here's one from an actual user... The material is durable, the retractable strap is great, the zippers are a bad design that requires 2 hands to operate. The legs work fine. I'm going to continue to use it comfortably for a few years I'd guess, but I think I'd get something else next time.

Reviewed by: Eric Stratton ,  Shoots in the 80s

Model Reviewed:
Ping Hoofer Extreme

Summary:
The Hoofer Extreme is a COMPLETE DISASTER, do not take one even if they offer to give it to you. Ping strap have always been bad, I always replace it with an Izzo strap immediately. In addition, the materials are pitiful, the collar of mine wore out in 35 rounds of walking, the legs don't ever work properly, and the bag has exposed rivets in the area where the driver and 3-wood shafts are stored and these scratch up expensive shafts.

The new Hoofer Vantage is as bad or worse. After using Ping bags for 20+ years my last three (Hoofer 3/Extreme/Vantage) have been horrible and I'll never buy another Ping carry bag.

Customer Service:
They try, but are totally ineffective.

None so far, but that will change asap.

Ping Hoofer Extream

Summary:
I bought this bag for $100 from Dimmock Hills in BInghamton NY. I love ths bag. I have had no problems with it. It is as light as my Nike Ultra Light stand bad and can hold the clubs better in the bag. It has enough room in the pockets so you can hold enough stuff inside of it but not so much that it ways you down.
If you are looking for a new bag try to find one of these and try it.

Customer Service:
None used

Ping Hoofer Extreme

Summary:
I bought this bag for a ridiculous $149, but I heard all the hype and had to have it. What a waste! This bag is terrible. The legs dont come out far enough, so it always falls over. The retractable strap is flimsy and pulls out of the bottom of the bag. The zippers broke the 2nd day I had it. The main pocket is WAY too small to put in shoes or rain gear. It is such a disappointment, considering all the hype. I havea J-Bag for my school team, and I like it much better. I wouldn't definitely not buy this bag again, and am looking for something with bigger pockets and higher quality

Customer Service:
none
