Ok i've got a stand bag but it doesn't fit well into the trolley i have at the moment.  can anyone recommend me a trolley that would fit a stand bag well so it stopps moving around, i've gone through 4 sets of straps because i get frustrated trying to get it tight enough so the bag doesn't move.

Cheers

Gaz.

Stand bags were not designed to fit on trollies, Gaz.

but i'm too lazy to carry the damn thing

The you should've got a cart bag you fool!  Seriously though, stand bags are the wrong shape for a trolley.  Cart bags are round and stand bags are oval, plus the legs get in the way too.  You'll have to mount it on it's side. 

It is harder work with a trolley than it is carrying. I carried until I was 62.

The bag came with the clubs.

I've not actually tried carrying it, (used to carry my older bag) i'll put the straps back on tonight and have a little walk around, see how comfy it feels.

 I think it'd be a lot comfier than my older bag to carry as its got two straps instead of one that just tears into your shoulder lol.

 i am getting a little sick of the bag toppling over and nearly snapping my damn wrist tho lol.....suppose it wouldn't happen as much if i hit the damn fairway every now and again tho lol.

What is a fairway, Gaz, have problems myself with them.

dunno mate, haven't seen one in a looooooong time lol.

oooh a warning to anyone in the wigan area, i'll be playing haigh hall at the weekend. probably won't see me, i'll be in the woods lookin for my feckin ball lol.

I've used several stand bags, I carry normaly now, but at one point they've all been on my little foldaway trolley without many problems.  My last Ram bag did need the help of a couple of heavy duty cable ties to stop it spinning but that took a couple of seconds to do.  I found that fitting some heavy duty D clips onto the carry strap (where it fits to the bag) makes getting it off in a jiffy easy too. 

well i'll give carrying a go, if that doesn't work out then i'll just buy a new bag that's made to fit a trolley.

my current trolleys knackered anyway, too many wayward shots have resulted in me attacking the poor thing lol.

I much prefer carrying if you've got a decent bag, I've got the Nike Sasquatch Tour Bag and it's brilliant, the last one was a Skymax MPB also very good.  Really depends on the straps and the way the weight is distributed - I had a Datrek bag that was light as feather, easy to get on and off but dumped all the clubs on the floor when I started walking.

If you're young at fit carry it! 

I've used a trolley for the past two and a half years, but a few weeks before Christmas I was forced to carry due to a trolley ban.  After the inital shock to the system (I was knackered at the end of the round!) I realised I actually preferred it and have carried since.  I've even been out and bought a new stand bag instead of the new trolley bag I was going to get (the stand bag I had came with my first set of clubs and was, well, rubbish).  I may go back to the trolley for the odd round if it's a particularly hilly course - Hollins Hall springs to mind. 

My new bag matches the new one Tim's got (I recommended it to him after a round at The Belfry but he got his first).  It's a bit fiddly trying to get the straps just right as there's double adjusters on all four straps, but when you get it right it hardly feels like you've got it on. 

It's got loads of pockets as well, found another one yesterday that I'd missed.  As a matter of interest (due to the upcoming Portugal trip) I weighed it fully loaded yesterday and was suprised at how little it was, 12.7kg all up - and I carry stuff for virtually every eventuality -  or 2 stone in old money.  Not a lot really.
