Newbie after new bag / buggy advice

[Bucko]

First time / Long time....

Just after some advice on a decent bag and buggy, been playing for around 6 months and am hooked.

My current bag does not have full length dividers and does my head in, so full length dividers are a must.

My push cart at the moment is a cheapie simliar to http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/New-Stowa...-/130774465767

The main problem I have is that the angle the bag sits on the cart, I have to bend down to see under the other clubs to pick out an iron. So the driver / woods etc basically lean over and cover the irons.

I'm tallish (6'2"), so that plays a part also. My set consists of Driver, 3 & 4 wood, 3 & 4 Hybrid, 5-SW Irons & Putter. So the bag is fairly full

I've pretty much decided on http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/FOUNDERS-...-/200912156070 Founders Buggy. It looks like the bag will sit much more upright than the current POS buggy I have.

The bag I have no idea about. Full length dividers, plus that it sits more upright so I can see and access the irons at the bottom easier, but I'm thinking thats more the buggy's fault.

Has anyone else had this problem, or can recommend a cheap-ish bag that suits and would sit nicely on the Founders buggy ?

Looking to spend around $100 - $150 max on the bag.

Thanks in advance

Bucko, I have one of the founders buggies. I find the longish wheel base makes them more difficult to turn than the flip n go or the click gear, and the pocket at the top is a bit small. It is still a solid buggy. Where abouts are you? If you are in bris I might sell it to you, has a seat as well .

I'd definitely take you up on that, but in Melbourne mate. What bag do you use with it, and does it sit quite upright ??

I am using a TM stand bag. Doesn't sit too well on it as stand bags can be difficult like that, but works fine. The buggy does have the bag fairly high and it is easy to get clubs etc out.

Thanks for the info mate. Pretty much locked in on the buggy, just for the bag now...

Have a look on EBay, there is an almost new Sun Mountain 'Sync' bag in Melbourne - good bags the Sun Mountain range, I'm 6' and a bit and use a SM 'MCB' with a Clicgear buggy, no problems.

Don't get a Smoothy - mines SHIT and I hate it , only putting up with it until i can afford a Navigator.
I am 6'4 , it's bouncy , heavy and like most buggies doesnt even roll straight
