2022 OGIO Fuse 4 Stand Bag: Specifications and Features

Weight

The Fuse 4  weighs 4.4 pounds, including the strap system.

This weight places the Fuse 4 bag in the upper half of our preferred range. That said, it is one of the lightest bags OGIO has produced.

In setting our weight range, we consider both the pure weight of the bag and the tradeoff of weight versus features. Typically, the lighter the bag, the fewer features and the lower the quality of the materials. So, finding the absolute lowest weight bag is not always the best path for selecting a bag.

Getting Clubs In and Out of the Bag

OGIO 2022 Fuse 4 Stand Bag Top

The OGIO Fuse 4 Stand Bag has a roundish 9″, four-way opening with full-length dividers.

The advantage of a four-opening top is that less of the top is devoted to the padded dividers, which can take up a significant amount of effective space.  Also, the fewer dividers, the easier for a golfer to slide clubs into the bag.

Ease of Carrying the Bag

The OGIO Fuse 4 Stand Bag has the Fit Disc Four Point Strap System, which joins the two  ergonomic shoulder straps in a manner that allows each to move independently.  The connecting disc allows each strap to adjust to automatically distribute the bag’s weight.

For greater ease of carrying the bag, the Fuse has a padded hip panel to fit a golfer’s body more comfortably.

OGIO has claimed that the Fuse 4 is the “…most comfortable bag we have ever made”.  

The bag has a top rim, padded spine, and bottom handles for easy lifting options.

OGIO continues to innovate on its strap carry systems.  The Fit Disc Four Point Strap System is a very comfortable carry. 

Storage/Pockets

The OGIO Fuse 4 Stand Bag has six front-facing pockets, including:

  • Large apparel pocket
  • Rapid Access Snap Ball Pocket
  • Rapid Access Snap fleece lined valuables pocket and
  • Water bottle pocket with drainage port

In terms of other attachment points, the bag has:

  • Low profile three ball “ball silo”
  • Umbrella holder
  • Towel loop

The bag has one fewer pocket than the low end of our preferred range, but with rapid access pockets and the additional ball silo, the bag is well-outfitted in terms of access and storage. 

Stability of the Bag

OGIO Stand Bags have historically received consistently favorable reviews for their sturdiness and stability. The Fuse 4 is no exception. 

While slightly more vertical than some stand bags, the Fuse 4 has a well-constructed leg extension system that is partially internal to the bag. 

Also, the feet of the legs are substantial and resist sinking into the ground.

The stability features and performance of the bag align with our expectations for an OGIO bag.

Extras

The OGIO Fuse 4 Stand Bag has:

  • OGIO’s long history of making high-quality golf bags
  • Includes rain hood
  • Sixteen color combinations, which range from mild to wild

Value

The suggested retail price for the OGIO Fuse 4 Stand Bag is $249. 

The MSRP price is on the high side.  That said, we have recently seen this model significantly discounted from its MRSP.
