The unthinkable happened this week. I was at a tournament and my bag was stolen. I got over the shock and the heart break and now it is time to buy a new bag. My question is what new bag is the best? I really am leaning to the Dual Pack from Revo. But I want to know if anyone has the new phenix bag or maybe some other new one that I can't think about right now. Any help would be nice.

Nothing wrong with the Rev Carolina, I recently got a new one after my last was also stolen.
A lot of people in New England seem to be using the new large Innova bag, and are liking it. Small side pockets though, can't fit a shirt in it.
gateway!!! great bags and very durable i hear. should be getting mine shortly.
I got a Large Innova Bag from discnation.com and like it very much, sure some things I don't
like, but it is a good durable bag and the inside of it on the top (pouch w/zipper) can fit small stuff, heck can even fit my Ipod+Speakers in it and rock to music :)
Though of course sorry to hear your bag was stolen.
I had an Innova tour bag, too heavy! But now I have a discarrier by Innova and its great, lots of room in the middle for discs, large end pockets for just about anything (ive had a sweatshirt stuffed in one end and zipped up!), two bottle holders, putter and mini pocket and a small zipped pocket on the end for keys and other important stuff. There is also a bunch of little hidden zipper pockets inside I can only imagine what the designer had these in mind for! The bag is ultra-light and so far seems very durable. The tour bag was just about as heavy empty as this one with 8 or 10 discs in it!

You might try looking at http://www.gorilla-boy.com/ I've looked at them and have seen the small one upclose and really think they are worth the cost. Durable seems to be the keyword for these.
I'll throw in another vote for Gorrilla-boy bags. I bought the squirrel monkey (deluxe small bag) about 4 months ago and I'm very happy with my purchase.

I choose this bag for several reasons. First off I love the internal frame. My bag doesn't fall over as much and my discs stay organized. The putter pocket will fit 2 putters and the mini pocket is just plain cool. The back pocket is great for storing towels or other small things and the front pocket is huge and has a mesh inner pocket for your small things. On the outside there are 2 pencil pockets, a rain flap, umbrella straps, and quad shock hook-ups. I wasn't stoked about the drink holders because there's no drawstring and it really annoys me if my H2O falls out when I bend over to pick up my disc, but the sides are built up enough that the bottle doesn't fall out. Also the materials used to make this bag are very high quality, in particular I was impressed with the zippers and the heavy duty metal clips on the strap. I can carry 10 discs, 64oz of liquids, a bunch of random crap (or 2 more discs with some crap) AND an umbrella/chair in this sweet mini-bag.

If I was touring or felt the need to carry even more crap I would upgrade to the kong since it has many more pockets and holds more discs.

I would also like to give props to gorrilla-boy for their awesome customer service. My old bag crapped out a few weeks ahead of the first tournament I had lined up this year and these guys were able to hook me up on short notice. Since each bag is hand-made from scratch I was truly impressed and very grateful.

ps- I'm not affiliated with these guys in any way....I'm just a happy customer.
I was going though 2 innova deluxe bags a year (i'm really rough on bags ) I brought a rev team bag and have had it for almost 7 months now and it has no wear they are pricey but worth every penny
If looking for a suitcase, carrying discs you will never use during a round- drinks, extra non-sense buy what is known out there.

If you are looking for a durable, reasonably priced, quality well designed bag go to a
Disc Player Sports Bag.
It has plenty of space for your cell phone, scorecards, pencils, car keys, umbrella and pockets.
Comfortably holds 15 discs. Why carry more?
Try the Quad shock with it, comfort and user friendly.
yeah but for 50 dollars you get the dpsb for you can get a rev club bag thats not made out of cheap nylon like the dpsb
I am loving my Rev bag.
And I also loved my Gateway bag....
Those bags are the best out there(eventhou I also loved my pdga bag).

Just pick a big one in a nice color.......preferable not blue or black,since everybody always have the tendencie to grab the wrong bag from the ground.........:)
Get a Gateway Backpack bag, their Backpack bag is great. I prefer it over Revolutions Backpack Bag because their are no "real" drink holders, just 2 side pouches that can be used but they are not designed for Nalgene 32 oz bottles.
I've played disc golf for twenty years, been through multiple bags like Wall City, Lightning, PDGA, Innova etc., I have two Revolution bags now, a Carolina that is on it's third year and just showing signs of wear on the bottom where the internal frame meets the bag, my Texas bag is almost two years old and hardly any wear, both have quad shocks for comfort and use.
I have never had a Gorilla Boy bag so I can't say anything about it but I will never buy another bag other than a Revolution bag, extremely durable for the extra cost, hands down the best bag I've ever throw on my shoulders, you owe it to yourself to buy one in my opinion.
