I have this bag and really like it... Its biog enough to hold all my stuff, and the wheels make it nice to pull around.

Glad I didn't hesitate!

I didn't know you only had four hours to bite.

Of course, shipping is $4 extra due to size/weight.

I recommend the Evans Bag. It is a heavier weight nylon. and much more discrete without the huge Wilson and MLB logos.

Put em in, ipped up the sides, and loaded the bag. It is exactly like the old honigs bag and the Swiss bag, and I think it is the best bag you can get.

I got mine about a half-hour ago, and I have the same problem, sans band saw...I'll figger something out.

[MajorDave]

That's what I did.

Instead of bending them into a "U" to fit in the pocket, I made a multi-curved "S", and worked the excess behind the part of the pocket that was already zipped as I went along. Worked like a charm!

Thanks all for the bag discussion - I just received the Wilson one from T & B Sports (http://www.tandbsports.com) for $100 with FREE SHIPPING!!

The website will want to add $10 for shipping b/c it's not over $100 - you have to call and ask for Stephanie Camara at 707-544-2433 -- she will take your order and give you the free shipping...have a great season!!

This is the only piece of equipment worth buying on their site. The rest of the umpire gear is crap. How come these companies sell crap, and not the top of the line stuff? I see it with many other minor companies out there and it puzzles me. If I were a gear shop owner, I would only carry the top protective gear out there and would draw the line at higher quality than this!
