I have never used them, only found the link while shopping for a new tool belt. They seem to be the same basic design, only half the price. I'm always looking to save some $$.

They look pretty close to me.. maybe not designed for DG bags but they might work.....

I'm going to head to HD and check them out...

No one beats the quality of Quad shocks!
Pay the money.
They compliment any pro bag.
The DiscPlayerSports bag was designed for the use of them.
Comfort, quality.... http://www.discplayersports.com/golf_bags.htm The shocks are here and priced right!
The one in the picture looks cheap... weak clips, not much padding...
Look at your high end backpacks. See how much padding there is.
The money you would save won't make up for the discomfort.

Good deal man! Glad to help with the deals.
I think the advertisement guy only saw the first straps I linked. They are not as nice as the phoenix straps.
The Casa Depot straps do look great, did your local store have them in stock?

Thanks! I just bought the Home Depot bag on sale and with free shipping. I received a tournament bag as a b-day gift, but couldn't pull the trigger on a $40 strap. Now I don't have to.

If those straps work for you great.
From my experience (hanging 40-60 feet in the air working) I don't like the cheap metal clips.
Can't cheap out on my job.
Don't know what Phenix Shocks mark up is (his cost), but as you can see Disc Player sells them at a reasonable price.
Disc Player was in the process of making our own, but you have to buy in the thousands...
Feel the QUAD SHOCK is a 'good' quality product.
Have tried other combinations, good luck.
Sincerely.
