Initial Review
As an avid disc golfer, I decided to take a shot on this bag and give it a try. I figured I could be the first person to review the bag, so others have a good idea what they are getting themselves into.First off, this bag is large. After removal from the packaging, you realize how large it is after you actually begin to put discs in, but ill cover that later.The bag feels very sturdy. Nylon feels very solid, and it is easy to put on your back from the ground. All the straps are fully adjustable.There are a lot of pockets on this bag, more than I know what to do with initially.(I am sure i will find a use down the road)There are no instructions that come with the bag, but they are really not needed if you have had a backpack before. The putter pocket on the very top is adjustable inside the bag depending on how far you would like it to stick out the top. There is plenty of room for two putters in the slot as well.The DIY logo/name card slot has no appeal to me. You could probably write your name on the card to identify your bag, but for me I have a clip on ID tag, and I personally think the white card insert looks tacky. This may have appeal to some people as you could customize a card and put it in there, but for me I just removed it.The side pockets that are made for a chair/umbrella are a good feature. Adjustable straps are there to tighten around whichever object you are putting there, making it very secure.There are also pockets more in the front for a water bottle, which I wish had a little more elasticity to them, but they work just fine.Down to the actual main compartment. First off it is quite large. I have 24 discs in the main compartment alone, and I could probably fit more. Take into account I have four putters, and eight midrange discs, you will begin to gauge the room in the main compartment. As shown in the picture, you could use the outside flap as a putter pocket when tucked backwards, but I chose not to. There is also velcro dividers available, but I chose not to use those either.Overall, the bag feels very comfortable, and it was shipped to me in just a few days. Amazon said it could take three weeks, it took nowhere near that amount of time. There are a few adjustments that could be made(cupholders having elastic, instructions for simple things, etc...) but I am satisfied thus far.For the price point, this bag competes with other higher end bags, but since I have not played many rounds with it yet, only time will tell. I will be updating this review in around three months, with how it has performed.Edit after Two Months: This bag is holding up very well. As of right now, none of the seams show any form of wear or tear. I play quite a lot, many times a week, sometimes twice a day, if that gives you any insight. I figured out that the two inserts they send you with the bag actually go into the sides of the bag, and help to keep the bag upright! This was a fantastic discovery, and it just adds to how much I like the bag. It does get quite dirty after uses being that it is black, but it is pretty easy to clean, so do not let that push you away from buying it. My friend who has a Ranger backpack says that he likes how sleek this bag is, so take that as you will. I use the two pockets up top for my favorite putters, and use the pocket that tucks in above your discs for my favorite driver. I also use the very front bottom pocket for scorecards and pens instead of discs. If you keep score a lot that way, you will thank me later. So far so good, well worth the money in my eyes.

Amazing value but not the best construction
**DISCLAIMER** bought the pink camo bag when it was discounted for $42That being said--if I paid $80 for this bag I would be giving it 2 stars. The top of where the straps join to the bag is fraying and will probably go in the next couple of months. I've been using this a couple times a week for only about 4 or 5 months--you should definitely be able to use a bag for longer than that.I really don't love the water bottle pockets--they are very shallow and unless you buckle the bottles in they will fall out. I do like the vertical zipper pockets on the side though and I usually end up just putting my water in there. The pockets on top of the bag are deep and great for snacks / scorecards / minis / etc.The bag is oddly weighted though and does have a hard time staying upright. If you have anything in the top pockets the bag will likely fall over. It's not a deal breaker but it is annoying.UPDATE: Ive had this bag for a year and a half now and despite the relatively thin and material of it, it still works great! I now use a 3L hydration back and believe it or not the entire bladder fits in the side pocket of the bag. I now see that the price has gone up to $100 though which in my opinion definitely isn't worth it. The shoulder straps are fraying a bit and the material doesn't feel durable enough to warrant that price.Overall I would say that this bag is not worth $80. Go with a more reputable brand and pay $100+ for something that will last years not something that will rip with heavy usage. But for $42? This bag is an absolute steal.

Expected Durability Issues
I've had this bag for 3 months now - for the most part, it's been great. It's essentially an old Grip bag for a fraction of the price, however for me that came with some cheaper components. One of the side pockets, the zipper has already come apart, despite me never having overfilled the pocket or abused the zipper in any way (not even a ton of opening and closing overall). Basically only have one usable side pocket now, as without the zipper anything I put in that pocket can fall out.Otherwise, I like the bag - the base construction and feet are sturdy, and I almost never have issues with the bag tipping over. It holds a TON of discs, I carry 19 in the main pocket, one on the outer slot on the disc compartment cover, and a total of 4 putters up on top in the putter pouches. Just all the discs I could want to carry I easily fit in the bag. The outer pockets are nice and the putter pockets have multiple levels, for stashing away lesser used discs while leaving putters and throwing putters readily reachable.I would love this bag and give it five stars, especially for value, except for the zipper coming apart so easily and so quickly.

Wish I'd bought this sooner!
I just bought and played my first round with this bag and I couldn't be happier with it. Its a great size, lots of storage, very comfortable and the build quality feels great. I used a regular knapsack to play disc golf for the last couple years and after one round with this bag I'm kicking myself for not buying it sooner. It makes such a difference. I got the black one, and I'm glad I didn't get the camo, black looks great. I used a sharpie to black out the letters on the front - I think it looks way better. Great purchase.

What's not to like?
First impressions are very positive. The bag seems to be very well made and the quality of the materials are much better than I was expecting. With the bag fully loaded the bag seems to be very comfortable and it stands up very well. There's more storage than I'll probably ever need but it nice to have just in case. With a lot of excellent long term reviews out there I really don't foresee any issues. Considering a comparable "brand name" bag costs twice this amount the Fitactic bag seems like a steal. If you're on the fence about getting this bag I would pull the trigger. I'm very happy with it so far.

its a good bag
i really like this bag, lots of storage for my disks, easy to organize, room for a towel, and water bottle. I HIGHLY recommend watching a youtube video on how to put the stiffeners in though took me a little to figure out the go inside the bag through the lining on the inside, takes a bit of muscle to get them in as well, but that is a testament to how sturdy this bag is. Does come with a rain cover.

Great bag and customer service
Bag is great has a lot of storage for a reasonable price. Love the disc pocket on door flap.Plastic clip that tightens the shoulder atrap broke after 3 months of use. I can still use it but have to tie the strap.Update: I contacted the seller about my broken strap and they sent a replacement. Not the same colour as my original but has accessories mine did not come with.

Nice Bag
K, so I've used this bag for a full season. Multiple times a week. All the harsh crap and abuse a season can bring. Bags handles everything well. Added a small cooler in the mid section but this thing can handle the abuse I put it through, stuff it full of discs and whatever you need. Absolutely no complaints. Great bag.
