Magellan disc golf bag

What do you think??

I haven't gotten home yet to check them out. I really got them more for gifts and/or loaner bags for friends who come along to play.

BillTVShow's review is pretty spot on.

They hold a stool/umbrella upright on many bags. Im sure you can hang stuff from them etc.

You are referring to the "Multifunctional side straps with compression buckles" right?

Right. Thanks.

Gotchya. Seriously looking at getting one to use as a winter bag.

But with with an A-Series, a C14 and a modified Cabela's bag in the house...maybe not. LOL.

The more you make in one color, the cheaper the bag price is overall. The next run may feature new colors, but this order was so big... they should be stocked for awhile.

You got some inside info on this huh...

On a side note all I have to say is "WINNING!":clap:

So, I have the target diy bag, the 35 dollar one. I built a rack in it to move them higher. Bag is good, but not perfect. I picked up the magellan one yesterday, and I like it a lot. I had to do a few modifications, but its not hard. The biggest thing I did not like is that the bag is a little floppy. I fixed that by making plastic framing that extends up the sides of the bag and reenforced the bottom of the bag with some. My other gripe is tucking the flap into the pocket, but, I am just going to get some velcro strips and put a piece in the back to attach the flap to. With the framing, the bag sits MUCH better. If anyone wants to see what I am talking about, I can post a pic. Overall, I like the bag, and its a great value!

Orange and black= I buy.
@Above see you also got a jartop, how does it compare? Jartop is my main, this should be lighter, right?

 

[solomon.trenton]

Ill be interested to see how it holds up over time. Ive never had good luck with cheap bags/luggage

 

[justinf67]

Yeah, have the jar top elite bag. I liked it, but this one seems better once you mod it a little. This one is lighter and has more disc capacity

Would just some think cardboard do the trick for the sides?

Sure, for one 9 hole round on a really short course.

Mine is on hold at Academy. I am picking it up at 8 in the morning and going straight to play.

I saw, held, and stuffed this bag at academy yesterday before I saw this thread. This bag is actually pretty awesome. To me, it's only downside is the smaller water bottle holders. But for $30, I will buy smaller water bottles or just put one in the side pockets (there is PLENTY of room for one).

When you factor in the putter pocket up front, this bag has a righteous amount of storage and hold A LOT of discs. I started to feel silly in the store stuffing it with discs because I was clearing out whole racks of discs to do it.

For 1/8 the cost of a Grip bag, I'm sold. The materials seems solid enough. Plus $30 every year or two is worth it for me. I was looking at a Range too, but not any more. Finally there is some sense in the DG backpack game. $260 FOR A BAG TO HOLD DISCS?? God bless capitalism and Academy.

PVC frame MOD:

Still holds 20 in main compartment... I'm pretty sure I spent about $10 but I'll tally the reciept and post the amount when I post more pics... Supper time!
