Pros: Sturdy and durable. Plenty of room. Well balanced.
Cons: All colors except green tend to fade quickly.
The Bottom Line: For the price you pay, you definitely do get quality. I'd much prefer to a little more and have it last.

| lil_kanga77's Full Review: Titleist Logo Stand Bag |
I was looking into getting this bag for for a few months but wasn't sure I wanted to spend what they were asking for it, on just a golf bag.
I wanted something that had plenty of storage room, was well balanced for carrying and was sturdy and durable.
I found this bag to be all those things and more.
The first thing I noticed about the bag was the abundance of room.
The pockets are very roomy. The large pocket on the side easily fits your rain-wear and a spare pair of shoes. It's a little bit of a squeeze but it can be done. The smaller pocket down near the base is, again, quite large and easily holds as many balls as you see fit, or need, during the course of play. There is a smaller, lined pocket which is ideal for jewelery or other items you don't want to get damaged while you're out playing. There is a plastic-lined pocket ideal for items you want to keep cool and/or dry. The netted pocket is handy for keeping those things that you need more frequently, ie. score-card and pen and can be stretched to accommodate a sports bottle, if required.
The bag has the dual strap which makes carrying easy and balances the bag evenly over both shoulders. I'm not the tallest nor strongest person but I found I could fair well carrying this bag. Adjustments can be made, too, depending on how you like to carry and balance the bag.
The inside of the bag is lined which adds protection to your shafts. The inside is also partitioned however after much use, I found this ripped and I ending up cutting it out. After doing so, the clubs became a little jam-packed down at the grips. This, I found, is only evident in certain positions if put it on a pull cart.
The stand is strong and in the 12+ months I've had it, not once has it looked like failing. The only thing I wish they could invent on these type of bags is a system by which the stand won't pop out, a locking mechanism of sorts. I have found when traveling and packing it into a travel case, the stand still pops up and I often wonder if the legs will survive the flight. They have, but still, it's something I wish the manufacturers would consider.
I have the dark green bag and again, in the 12+ months that I've had, it doesn't look old or even faded. I'm a regular golfer and practice often too, so it's subjected to the sun quite often. I have found, other colors do fade more quickly. So, maybe, that's an option you should consider when buying.
