Just bought this set from you (thanks Mike!). I was formerly a viper r thrower, and still am, but these have taken over as my primary thrower. My hands are a bit smaller, and I find that I can grip these better and hit spots better than with the Rs.
You are correct. Almost all manufacturers are making good quality bags. They're little fabric bags filled with resin. It's not rocket science to make a good sturdy bag. This is why I love Underworld Cornhole bags. $55 per set and just as good quality as Ultra.
When I talk about quality, it's not about the materials and fill. It's about the craftsmanship of the bags. The bags need to be square, they all need to be the same weight, the stitching shouldn't be visible, the printing should be sharp, etc. It wasn't that long ago that you would get a set of bags that were different sizes, weights, and shapes. That was frustrating. I haven't had an issue with any of that in quite a while.
Mike, thanks for the great review. I was thinking about getting these but wanted to see your review first. I trust your no-nonsense opinion. I agree that $125 is a bit much for these(or any bag really). I hope to get to try some out before ordering but probably will anyway if I can get a little better price. cheers!
It’s a question of if you want hybrid carpet or herringbone. In all reality, both of them are great bags. I’m a big fan of AAR Rippers, but my friend is a brotherhood rep and I always love throwing his bags when we’re playing together.
It's my channel. I have the right to choose which bags I review. I hate the fast side material on the Butter so I'm not that excited to drop $120 on a set of bags that I'm never going to use.
Honestly, I don't have plans unless I can find a set of bags at a reasonable price. I don't make enough money off of these reviews to cover the cost of a set of Cornhole Scenario bags. I wish it was different but that's the truth.
They only similarity is the slow side. The Fatals have a different fast side and a mixed fill that is mostly beads. The Fatals also have the performance liner.
@robertcarper5572 There isn't a best one. It all depends on what you want in a bag. Template size, fill type, fill amount, floppiness, etc, are all important in determining which bag you will like best. For me, it also depends on what style of game I want to play, how fast the boards are playing, and who my opponent is. There are too many factors to pick only one bag.
These bags are fuller and stay a little stiffer than the Viper R… I’ve only had them for a month.. I did toss sauce them, but they were still a little stiff… good bags… but still prefer my Wizards over them.
Kill shots quality really is sub par compared to some of the companies out there. Obviously some other companies as well, but you look at an Ultra bag, a B3 bag, and a Killshot bag all together and one of them blatantly stands out. 😂 not all bags are made the same
Killshots quality and customer support after the sale is second to none(especially Ultra). Received a Mojo with a big pull in the carpet material and they told me to kick rocks basically. Mike just doesn’t like any bags over $100 but frankly the fabric as resin used in all these bags is maybe what? $5-10 tops. So aren’t we all getting played even at $50-60 a set 😂
The funny thing is I've never had an issue with a KillShots bag but I've had 2 issues with Ultra bags. Every company has it's issues. Nobody is perfect.

Underworld is my fave too. Osiris currently took the top spot from the truth for me.
@bigdonmega yeah, the Clones are my go to right now. Probably Oaks after them but I like faster bags too.

@MikesBags yeah, I get that. I think they all pretty much good quality bags with that take in mind too.
My man!!! I've been waiting on this review and as always great job.
Great review Mike!!

What is your herringbone pick of the litter?
Hey Mike, what's your thoughts on the ultra butter fly bags
I have never thrown the Butterflys. I'm not a fan of that fast side material so I'm probably not going to like them.
Need a review on the new Killshots Draco and SCAR!
Have they been released yet?
When do you think you will do Brotherhood Wingman. I can’t find anything on them. Can’t decide if I want the Guardians or Wingman.
It’s a question of if you want hybrid carpet or herringbone. In all reality, both of them are great bags. I’m a big fan of AAR Rippers, but my friend is a brotherhood rep and I always love throwing his bags when we’re playing together.
I don't know. I don't have a set of Wingman yet to review.
When will you do the Wolverine L bag review?
I don't know. I don't have a set of them yet. It will probably be a while before I can find a set at a reasonable price to review.
No butterfly review but these?

Any plans on a catwalk review?

Does herringbone carpet play faster then Reynolds pro Advantage
Yes, little bit
It can but it can also play slower. It depends on how you break it in and how clean/dirty you keep it.
How are they compared to b3 fatals?
They only similarity is the slow side. The Fatals have a different fast side and a mixed fill that is mostly beads. The Fatals also have the performance liner.
Do the X weigh less than Wizard L's?
No, they are close to the same weight.
@MikesBags Ok thanks, I ordered a set.
@@robertcarper5572 I hope you like them better than I did.
