I feel like anytime someone asks for a bag rec in the $175-250, most people recommend carts, Grip, UPD, etc. with no mention of the Ranger bag. Has if fallen out of style? Are there just too many superior options?

The quality isn't great? What about it is overpriced?

Is that all of DD bags? Or just the ranger?

I've had a Commander bag in my Zuca for 5 or 6 years now. Not a single issue with it, was meaning to order another one since it's, imo, the most perfect bag for a standard Zuca. Haven't yet because there's absolutely nothing wrong with the first one.
My wife rocks a Sniper. Looks like a little Ranger. Uses it in the cart and on the back. The thing is in fantastic condition still, after 4 or 5 years.
Can't speak on the Ranger personally but I've had nothing but positive experiences with DD's bags.

I've got a Ranger and a Combat Ranger...they're...fine. I'm honestly not sure I'd recommend one over another bag at their price point though (or more specifically, I'm not sure I wouldn't recommend a cheaper bag or cart at that specific price point). They're a bit boxy, I don't love the way they feel on the back. I think it would be a great bag to sit on a pedestal cart like a rover. I like mine on a sled when there's a lot of snow on the ground. I haven't had any quality issues, but I don't use them all that much.
If I hadn't gotten mine used as a utility bag for things like the sled (and my original Ranger holds all my practice putters in my shed) then I probably wouldn't own one. I think they occupy an odd space in terms of price/niceness. If I wanted a nice bag I'd probably spring for the extra money to buy a Grip, Upper Park, or Squatch or something...or I'd buy something less expensive.
