Waterproof Standbag
« on: Jul 04, 2010, 22:56:21 »
I'm looking for a waterproof bag.  I've seen the sun mountain bag at £130 ish.  Anyone got one and what's it like?  Any others out there?  Cheers. :)

How about trying this on an old bag for £8.99? http://www.alloutdoor.co.uk/water-proofing/grangers/granger-s-waterproofing-fabsil-gold-250ml-aerosol.htm

I've not used it on a golf bag, but I have used it on tents / fishing umbrellas and it works very well.

A friend of mine has the sun mountain one.  Because the water isn't absorbed by the cloth, it sits on the surface.  He says the grips stay drier (for a while) and you get wetter!

I have the bright YELLOW one, everyone knows when I'm out. Biggest plus is things like phone wallet etc stay dry. The area that sits against your back wears very quickly, other than that it does what it says on the tin.

Our pro shop have just got the Titleist "Sta dry" (?) in which is supposed to be waterproof, look a decent bag and I think they are doing them for about £100.
