Babolat Twelve Pack Bag

Hi all,
I am in need of a bigger tennis bag and I was wondering about the 2010 or whatever Babolat Pro Team 12 Pack Tennis Bag (Black) I found one that is $54.95. For a player with 3-4 racquets, towel, shoes, tennis balls, grips, water and extra pair of clothes, do you think 12 pack is good choice? or 9 pack? The 9 pack was only $5.00 cheaper, so I was thinking I may as well get the 12 pack but what is your opinion?

Thanks

I have the 9 pack & it's pretty big. I wouldn't want anything bigger.

Good answers, but could someone answer my direct question? Would the 12 pack be sufficient for 3-4 racquets, tennis shoes and/or regular shoes, extra pair of clothes, water, balls, grips, and towel? Or would it be too big? The first reply didn't really tell me about how much they put in their bag.

Thanks all

Yes. So would the 9 pk. IMO
 
Between the 9 pack and 12 pack, would there be a big difference? Or would it be safer to get the 12 pack?

I have the Aero 12pack, so I'm going to assume all Babolat 12packs are more or less the same size.

Depends on how much extra stuff you want to carry with you. I live in SF so it's almost always cold by the time I finish, or if I have to wait for courts, or if I sit in between sets/matches. So I use an entire compartment for warm clothes/pants/jackets. You know, thick warm stuff.

Then I use the middle compartment to keep my tennis accessories: balls, grips, shoes, and water bottles.

I couldn't fit everything into a 9pack. Maybe I can if I stretch the bag, but I prefer not to.

Keep in mind, I think Babolat 12packs are smaller than their competitors. For example Head's Monstercombi bags are like rooms compared to my Aero 12pack.

Bottom line, if you dont anticipate to pack enough clothes to keep you warm, a 9pack is more than sufficient.

I live in ND, so during High School tennis in the fall, that will be very useful. (40-55 weather in the fall) Thank you for that comment. I am leaning towards the 12.

40-55 weather, I would definitely store some extra clothes. Playing tennis is difficult enough, but to start playing when you've been sitting in the cold is discouraging.

Sorry, Yes to it being too big? or it being a good size? Sorry I didn't really understand

For Pete's sake! I was answering your first question! "Would it be sufficient." From your statements, I am guessing that you want the 12 Pk., so get it.

Cheers,

I have that 12 pack bag you are considering (or possible already have) purchasing. I have not seen the 9 pack in person, but the 12 pack bag is awesome. I carry 4 racquets, shoes, towels, snacks, balls, etc and the 12 pack is the perfect size. Very solidly built, attractive bag with alot of features. Even if the 9 pack is just a tad smaller I would gladly pay the extra $5 for the 12 pack if I did it over again. Hope this helps, either in persuading you to buy the 12 pack or feeling good about the purchase!
