If anyone is looking for a new bag, Ping just released the new St. Jude’s Hoofer Bag. Great cause and glad to see the 2026 release after Ping not releasing a 2025 Bag. I just placed my order.

Is it terrible to dislike St. Jude solely because of their marketing department?

I donated once, and then they bombarded me with text messages and both physical and digital mail for months despite trying to unsubscribe in every way possible.

Genuinely nice golf bags though.

I donated once. I was in charge of an estate. We gave them a whole house. They fought us in court because they wanted more money. There was no more money, we left them everything. They never sent a thank you card.

I was actually hoping to get some tickets to the St Jude tournament that year. But apparently 250k+ wasnt enough to get an invite.

I have one of the older St. Jude Hoofers, great bag and good cause.

Wish they would have issued one last year, my old one was pretty beat up and needed replacing. Wife bought me a Vessel bag for Christmas which I love but is a little heavy.

Going to take a stab at it, only because my neighbors in Houston years ago did the same thing.

Person with an interest or attachment to St Jude died with no heirs or none worth leaving anything of value to so they left their house to St Jude. Problem is St. Jude isn’t in the RE business. So they need money to fix the house up to make it a marketable property. They don’t have a RE division with a pool of money to do repairs on an OOS property. So they ask the executor or the family for the money.

It’s a noble cause but should be cleared with the organization prior to putting it all in writing.

Great cause.

Imo, they will never out do the outstanding first edition St. Jude Bag.

I would but I switched to Jumbo Max Grips and they drag too much in the Hoofer bag.

Precisely. I was the executor. The house wasnt in terrible shape by any means.
