Thread: 3 ball bags

  1. #1

    Default 3 ball bags

    hunting for a new 3 ball bag (No pun intended. opening day of deer season). Any suggestions. Looking for one that holds up well to abuse.

    That all depends on the money you want to spend. A teammate of mine has had a storm bag for as long as I can remember so we know it last long but cost a lot. My wife has a Strikeforce bag it gets the job done for around 100$ but it's new so I don't know how long it will last.

    I think most of the name brand bags hold up fairly well. The tournament totes that only hold balls don't seem to be as rugged.

    Storm's Rolling Thunder here....great bag but make sure you eat your Wheaties, 3 balls plus shoes plus all the other crap you can fit in the pockets makes for a rather heavy workout...but love the bag!

    I bought a DV8 bag online and found that it was manufactured by KR Strikeforce when I examined the tag closely. I strongly suspect the brunswick companies just source all their bags from KR Strikeforce.

    It's a nice bag and gives me a much better impression of KR Strikeforce stuff, but I feel like an idiot for paying more for essentially just a logo.

    Default Dont go 3 ball bag LIKE I DID!!

    Go ahead and get the 6 bagger!! You will be glad you did when you start getting more balls, then you have caring capacity! I made that mistake myself,, I now go to the lanes with a Columbia 3 bagger, and carry two single bags, on the pulling handle, the other with my right arm!!

    Even then I wish I had a way to carry one more ball, thus a 6 bag ball carrier!!! THIS IS A WARNING! You may get a 3 bagger and think you did the right thing, but in reality you deprived yourself of 3 more selections of balls on a given league night!

    If you don't have 6 balls,,,, YOU WILL HAVE,,, believe me!! I now have over 15!! And I love each and every one of them!

    Wait, I thought you were a power lifter, Three balls on wheels should be a light warm-up for you!

    My apologies if I have you confused with someone else. By the way, I occasionally walk to the alley with my Rolling Thunder four ball bag.

    I've been a part of twenty of these threads. So let me save you some time - Storm Rolling Thunder is a beast of a bag, costs a bit more but you can find it pretty cheap on ebay brand new and it'll hold up for a long time.
