That's a good point. I had a small, empty bottle in it last night.
That helps but you also just get better at placing the bag properly if that makes sense. Initially I had the same issue but it rarely falls over at this point.

I dont own a v3 but re: vertical storage the bag will break in a little but not going to help with that 3rd pocket if its "improved". The OG version i just stick a extra dish towel in there... Sucks to hear its still a problem. I dont find much need though like you mentioned its just there and should work better.
Are you talking about rebel or shift? I was replying to rebel reviewer. Id like to check out a shift but have no real need at this time.
Bag number.... 10?!
I bought a Towch and clipped it on my fiancé's Shift with carabiners. Instant storage.
As for the phone, I think it would work to use the mini pocket and sew or glue some velcro on either side to fasten a strap that would come over the top of the phone.
What would you need? I find the shift to be more than enough for long rounds.
I can get 16-17 discs depending on how many mids I carry. The bottom storage is perfect as well. I suppose extra drinks could be an issue tho.
I've had a Rebel (v.2) for several months now, and have really enjoyed it. Quality bag, comfortable to wear. But the simple truth is, it's more bag than I need. I think carrying around 22+ discs is proving harmful to my game. I know I don't HAVE to carry that many in the Rebel, but in disc golf as in other areas, my gear expands to fill the available space. And if I carry them, I feel compelled to use them.
I feel like the "sweet spot" for me would be about 15-16 discs or so: maybe 8 or so molds, with backups for most, maybe an extra putter or two for putting practice. I've heard great things about the Shift and think that might be my perfect bag. For those of you that have carried both the Shift and the Rebel: what is your experience carrying them? Can you compare them weight- and comfort-wise when they are fully loaded? How much less storage is there in the Shift? I don't think the single drink holder would be much of an issue, since I don't usually go out for multiple round days.
Also, if anyone with a Shift is looking to "bag up" to a Rebel, message me...maybe we can work something out.
Admittedly, it's not an elegant solution. Since she usually carries on just one shoulder, the pic attached shows one option that makes it a bit easier to access. Otherwise, to keep it out of the way, the clips just go on the same d-ring and the Towch sort of folds in half. But, for items like keys, wallets, snacks, or stuff that is infrequently accessed it allows for rearrangement and frees up the bottom storage a bit. It could also serve as a second bottle holder.
