For $10, it's worth just buying to try out.

Has anyone seen/owned the $10 standard Magellan bag? I like that it has a zippered side storage pocket. Wondering if it would be better than my fade lite bag. http://www.academy.com/shop/pdp/magellan-outdoors-standard-disc-golf-bag?repChildCatid=1443267
Honestly, I used two plastic coat hangers in the sides for months. They fit perfectly for height and the hanging arm holds the front open well. Head to the dollar store and you'll be in good shape for less money or hassle.
This bag truly is a great deal. It catches a lot of grief, but mine held up well, has TONS of room, great water holders and is pretty comfortable.
Have fun!
I got one of these bags for Christmas, but haven't gotten a chance to use it yet. Does the bag really need a frame or is it just personal preference? I've looked through the thread, and other than the measurements on page 13 I haven't seen any updated measurements. If I were to build a frame I would PVC, and measurements/instructions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again

First of all, I do not own this bag, I do fully plan on buying one in the near future though. I also haven't read every post on this thread so this may have already been said, but I just wanted to add that from my (fairly extensive) experience, Academy stands behind their products very well. I haven't bought very much from them in terms of disc golf equipment but I have bought my fair share of fishing rods and reels from them and I can say that every time I've had an issue with their product they have replaced it with no hassle. I know this is a completely different department for them but I just wanted to throw in my two cents from my experiences with them as a retailer.
This is a good way to put your toe in the water of the backpack bag without breaking the bank. You may eventually graduate to something nicer, but will not regret buying this bag.
