When it comes to golf bags, there is a line that seemingly always leads the pack. Whether it be cart or stand bags, the PING never disappoints. Whether it be the Hoofer, DLX or Pioneer, they consistently rank near the top (or at it) in our bag testing each year. Look no further than our 2024 cart bag testing, where the DLX walked away with 1st place. If you’re in the market for a new bag this season, today’s deal is for you.

Save on various PING cart and stand bag models at Carl’s Golfland.

There‘s a lot of cool gear in the golf world that doesn’t always fit into Most Wanted Tests or Buyer’s Guides. You still want to know how it performs. In our We Tried It series, we put gear to the test and let you know if it works as advertised.

What we tried: 

The new Sun Mountain Ridgeline 3, a fully adjustable push cart, labeled as lightweight and functional for all golfers who prefer walking to riding.

Who tried it: 

Jamie Danbrook, Forum Manager and avid walker of golf courses. We don’t ride carts here in Switzerland, we walk. While many of my playing partners have migrated to electric-powered options, I still enjoy my standard push cart. The new Ridgeline 3 from Sun Mountain looks great and will hopefully make walking my rounds a little easier and less taxing.

Key highlights:

Adjustability: Fits various golf bags; adjustable handle heightEase of Use: Folds/unfolds easily; compact for small car trunksPerformance: Smooth-rolling EZ Glyde Wheels; lightweight at 18 poundsBuild Quality: Sturdy construction; high-impact wheelsAccessories: Functional tray with phone holder, standard water-bottle holder, adjustable but slightly unstable umbrella holderBrake System: Secure disc brake; lacks downhill speed controlPrice: $349, good value for features and quality

About the Sun Mountain Ridgeline 3: 

For the most part, push carts are pretty straightforward. They may have three or four wheels, hopefully are easy to pack in the car and set up, and are functional for any and all golf bags. 

The Ridgeline 3 aims to hit all of these key points and has a few additional features to elevate its performance. With a price of $349, it is on the higher end but not outrageous by any means. 

The Toura Golf Irons Build Test offered MyGolfSpy community members a chance to build and evaluate their own custom golf irons. Our four selected testers shared their experiences, focusing on the build process, performance and overall impressions of the Toura Golf irons in a member test unlike any other before it. 

Key Highlights

Customization and Build Quality: Testers praised the high-quality materials and precise craftsmanship, noting the satisfaction of building their own clubs. The process was described as challenging but rewarding, with a significant appreciation for the final product.

Minimalist Design: The sleek, logo-free design appealed to those who prefer a clean, professional look. David Leighton Reid mentioned, “The clean look of these irons is truly stunning and adds a professional touch to my set.”

Forged Irons: The use of Japanese S25C steel provided exceptional feel and performance, enhancing the playing experience in both the blade and cavity-back models.

Precision and Accuracy: Testers highlighted the irons’ ability to deliver precise shot-making, allowing for better control and consistency.
