Bennington Lite Quiet Organizer Stand Bag

Summary:
On the plus side this bag is reasonably light for all it's features. The seperate iron wells are awesome and the seperate putter tube is really a nice feature also. It has plenty of pocket storage and the carry strap is comfortable. I have ample room for all the clubs I need and 3 dozen balls if you would be so inclined to carry that many. There is even an insulated pocket to carry a water bottle (or whatever beverage you prefer)that's easily accessible as you walk with the bag on your back.

On the down side, the plastic insert in the putter well comes out with your putter every time. The strap is held to the bag with plastic clips which broke the second time I carried this bag. Now one year later I'm looking for a new bag because this one is held together with tie wraps (wire ties, zip ties, etc). The durabilty of this bag is poor. The concept of the bag is great, the design is great but the materials used to construct the bag are cheap, poor quality and no where near rugged enough to endure a full season of golf without falling apart. Especially the strap. Even the stitching has come loose in several areas of the bag. With that being said, let me add that a season of golf for me is 100+ rounds ... walking.

Would I buy another one of these? .... NOPE! The bag costs too much to be of such poor construction.

Lite Quiet Organizer Stand Bag

Summary:
I just purchased the bag off of eBay for only $85! I have to say that this bag has to be my favorite out of all the bags I have ever owned. 1. The bag is near silent and you dont have that annoying "clanking" of the clubs as you are walking 2. The Iron Organizer is incredible, its perfectly set up for eazy detection of which club is which. 3. The Iron organizer get rid of the need for ugly and annoying club head covers; each club is separated and slides into a slot in the organizer so they dont have a chance to swing around and knock against each other. 4. There is an external putter well for easy access to your putter at all times. I couldnt be happier with this bag. I highly recommend it!

2005 Lite Quiet Organizer

Summary:
Excellent bag. Has backpack-style straps and many handholds for easy carrying. There are several compartments for holding things, including a putter scabbard, a water bottle holder, and a cellphone holder. Best of all are the 9 molded plastic iron holders, arranged in a spiraling configuration to prevent them from dinging each other. This bag obviates the need for iron covers (which promote rust in forged clubs). Also makes club selection a split second affair. The 9 holes can be a downside if you're one of those people with 4 wedges, though. You'll have to take out an iron or two to make them all fit. Otherwise, outstanding stand bag that simply makes the most sense. Get it on EBAY! (I got mine for $70 + $30 shipping).

Bennington Lite Quiet Organizer Stand Bag

Summary:
If you value your clubs this is the best stand bag on the market. The individual sleeves take bag chatter and shaft wear to an all time low. A quick glance and you know if you left a club on the last green. No more tangling of the shafts! The only problem I see is that the wood compartments with all the new rescue clubs does get a little crowded.

Durability, I bought mine 2 years ago and it still looks brand new. This bag is is definitely one you should consider.

If you can't find it at your local pro shop I suggest you look on Ebay. The MSRP is high but on Ebay you will find them for less money (even with shipping) and a good color selection.

The style is modern and discreet without all the manufactureres logos screaming at you. I still am trying to remember when Ping sent me my last check for having their logo on my bag.

This bag is top notch and with the exception of the wood compartment it's 5 stars!

Bennington Lite Quiet Organizer Stand Bag

Summary:
In my opinion, this is one of the most intelligently designed carry bags available today.

While most "divider style" bags merely provide 14 separate slots for each club (which does protect club shafts, but does not prevent "bag chatter damage" to the heads), this bag goes a step further and provides 9 individual slots for each iron AS WELL AS a top that completely isolates each club head from the others. The result? The nicks and dings that typically result from the club heads contacting each other while walking or riding in a cart are virtually eliminated. As an added bonus, there is no need to use those fugly and annoying individual iron covers.

There are also 3 larger full length dividers in the middle of the bag to accommodate your Driver, Wood(s), and Hybrid(s), as well as an external putter scabbard to keep your flatstick close at hand.

I've heard all of the arguments by traditionalists who say things like "they're just golf clubs, they're supposed to get dinged up, etc., etc., etc." That's all fine, but the fact of the matter is that when it comes time to trade in your sticks their "pre-owned value" will be judged almost entirely on cosmetics.

With the price of some new forged iron sets approaching $1000, and a robust re-sale environment emerging from the major online retailers and places like eBay, the time for a bag like this has definitely come.

As the reviewer above noted, this is definitely a full-featured bag. For that reason, it is a tad heavier than a Nike Xtreme or a Titleist X56, or any other "ultralight bag." But what it gives up in weight it more than makes up for in features and versatility (works well for the occasional round in a cart).

In summary, I would recommend this bag to anyone interested in not throwing their money out the window by beating the crap out of their forged irons with a crappy, outdated carry/stand bag. Last I checked, these can be had on eBay for around $150.00 shipped - and worth every penny. An outstanding effort by Bennington that deserves a look.

Have not dealt with them directly.
