Missoula, Montana - Sun Mountain's new MPB, multi-purpose bag, combines the best features of a cart bag with a stand bag to get a golf bag that rides well and can stand up on its own. MPB is the perfect bag for the golfer who predominately rides in a cart, occasionally walks or uses a caddy, and enjoys the convenience of a stand bag at the practice range. MPB is available October 1 in black, black/silver, black/red, black/orange, and black/cobalt with a full-suggested retail price of $175.

MPB incorporates Sun Mountain's most popular cart bag features to include the individual club dividing 14-way top, an external putter well, and 8 pockets including an insulated beverage pouch. Additionally, MPB boasts high-tensile aluminum legs that retract into zippered compartments for storage during cart use or travel, plus Sun Mountain's Dual X-Strap(r).

Sun Mountain's 14-way divided top offers individual, full-length club dividers with graphite shaft protection. The legs on the MPB are lightweight, top-mounted, high-tensile aluminum legs with Sun Mountain's patented roller-bottom leg mechanism that enables a wide secure stance that retracts tight to the bag. Sun Mountain's Dual X-Strap is easy to get on and off and functions equally well as a single strap for those short walks. MPB includes lift assist handles at top and bottom of the bag for ease in lifting into a car trunk. In addition to zippered compartments for the bag's legs, MPB also features a neoprene hood that protects the top of the stand mechanism while the bag is on a cart.
