I have a set of Shag "Attacks" and love the way they let me play both a dirty and run the hole style. They are fast bags which suit my style but I can control the speed with a slight arch in my throwing style to slow them.
Got my chaos in, even after a complete failure by USPS, which required a brand new set by SwagBags which they stepped up without missing a beat and made it right. Absolutely in love with these bags. One of my first carpet bags and even down here in south Texas humidity they are truly awesome. Thanks for the recommendation Mike
Mike, bought a set of these on your recommendation and the material choices. Love the Viper R but it’s just a bit too floppy for me, I need a little more control over the bag. The Chaos fit the bill perfectly, great feel, great control, can run the hole, cut them pretty reliably, great all around bag. I did the WDV soak, short x2 and they’re just about where I want them. I will say they are definitely not anywhere near as hole friendly as the Viper R but I guess that’s the trade off for being a little fuller and more controllable. Great channel, love your vids.
I cant get mine broke in with that liner in them. Did carpet muncher and 2 rounds of fabric softener and low heat in the dryer several times. Have thrown them a ton and they're still stiff and not hole friendly. Prefer my wintertides hands down.
These will never get as floppy as the Viper Rs. I wouldn't put any more product on them. You just need to get out there and throw them. Put some hours on them and they will loosen up.
I absolutely love my swag bags, they are hands-down my favorite set that I have. I have the Rubys but I’m looking to get a carpet bag so I’m gonna have to check those out.
I'm excited to see what design options they will have when they release these bags. But I agree, these are a lot better looking than what Ultra offers.
Every bag that utilizes these materials will get floppy. Both of these materials stretch, especially the hybrid material on the slow side. You won't find a bag like the Viper-R that isn't floppy.
@@MikesBags thanks for clearing that up I am trying to decide between the chaos and Costello X. Watched your review on both do you have any recommendations? I love the viper Rs but the template is bigger than I would like with the vipers. Thanks for your input always great reviews!!
Luv these bags. Collection, hand feel, all weather conditions, and size are all great. Viper R people didn’t mind using these bags. They are not as hole friendly as other bags, however the ability to roll and cut and collect is amazing.
It depends on what type of bag you like better. The Wintertide is a larger, floppier bag. The Chaos is fuller. If I had to pick one, it would be Chaos but it's close.
Those are two different style of bags. It depends on how you want to play the game. If you want to run bags then go with the Chaos. If you want to play a dirty style game or you want to cut, roll, flop, etc then go with the Creature. Both bags are great. I carry both bags with me most of the time. It's also a preference of what materials you like better.
I'm really liking this channel Mike. Good job!
Thanks!

I have not thrown the Shag Attacks yet. I have heard some good things about them. I'm hoping to get a set of them to review in the coming weeks.

Did it take a while for your bags to break in? It seems like they have a liner or bladder that is keeping them stiff.

I love the Chaos. I would say that mine are just as hole friendly, if not more than the Viper R.
Bought these bags yesterday and have seen multiple positive reviews on them!! Glad I made the decision to buy these bags!!!
Let me know what you think of them.
Mike,you are the "Go To" guy on bags! Thanks!
Thanks!

I will absolutely be trying to pick up a set of these. Thanks for the review Mike
Looks like they will be released later this month.
This will be my next purchase!! Thanks Mike awesome review.
Hey Mike, when will you get your hands on the new Costello X Carpet bag?
I have a set on the way. I'll do my best to get the review up as quick as possible since they are supposed to be dropping in a week.
I absolutely love my swag bags, they are hands-down my favorite set that I have. I have the Rubys but I’m looking to get a carpet bag so I’m gonna have to check those out.
I love the Rubys also. So far, every bag that I have thrown of theirs, has been great.
Hey Mike, loving how this bag sounds. Do you know what the difference between the Chaous and Kaboom?
I just posted a review of the KaBoom. That should answer your question.
Picked up a set of these today! $75 bucks cheapier than the Viper R, couldn’t pass it.
Which do u prefer?
The Viper R or the Chaos?
I prefer the Chaos.
Great review this for $80 or Viper R( 2024) on sale for $95. Help me choose. I'm not a roll or flop guy .Thanks
I would take the Chaos. I think they are a better version of the Viper R.
Big fan of the Ruby, and Swag Bags' pricing is great. What did you do to break in the Chaos? Thanks Mike!
I did a vinegar soak with these.
Hey Mike, I am deciding between getting a set of chaos or the Reynolds Typhoon. Which set do you like more? Thanks!
I prefer the Chaos. Both are great bags but the Chaos will play in all conditions. The Typhoons struggle when there is moisture in the air.
Thanks so much!
How would you say these bags feel compared to the fire bags hyper-drips?
These are nothing like the Hyper-drips. I have a full review up on the Hyper-drips and I go over how they feel in that video.
Thanks Mike, a lot to like in materials and design...far better than the current Viper R colorways.
I'm excited to see what design options they will have when they release these bags. But I agree, these are a lot better looking than what Ultra offers.
What backpack are you using? Just got the Battle Armor one and I love it so far.
I have a Bags Boards backpack. I've had it for a little over a year and I love it.
Great review mike. I got a set of these and love em.
Have you thrown the Swag Bags Emerald Mike?
Do they get floppy as Viper R in the long run??
Every bag that utilizes these materials will get floppy. Both of these materials stretch, especially the hybrid material on the slow side. You won't find a bag like the Viper-R that isn't floppy.
@@MikesBags guess 2 sets it is. 1 set is keep it for tournament wise so it won’t be too floppy. Lol
How long did they take to break in?
Did you do anything special for break in on these? I have my set on the way supposed to be arriving today or tomorrow. Can’t wait to get them in hand
I used the OG Toss Sauce to break these in.
@@MikesBags that was my plan, all I had on hand and didn’t really want to order anymore unless needed. Thanks Mike
Mike how can swag bags get the ACL pro stamp? Bc I really want to get these bags
These are ACL stamped. They have the Comp stamp which means they can be played at any ACL event except for the Pro only tournaments.
@@MikesBags thanks for clearing that up I am trying to decide between the chaos and Costello X. Watched your review on both do you have any recommendations? I love the viper Rs but the template is bigger than I would like with the vipers. Thanks for your input always great reviews!!
I would pick the Chaos. I absolutely love that bag. I've thrown it a lot since my review and it has become one of my go to bags for ACL tournaments.
Luv these bags. Collection, hand feel, all weather conditions, and size are all great. Viper R people didn’t mind using these bags. They are not as hole friendly as other bags, however the ability to roll and cut and collect is amazing.
Does the chaos have the same carpet as the kaboom
No the Chaos has the Viper R carpet.
Wintertide or Chaos?
It depends on what type of bag you like better. The Wintertide is a larger, floppier bag. The Chaos is fuller. If I had to pick one, it would be Chaos but it's close.
When is this bag coming out?
End of this month is what I have heard. Follow Swag Bags on social media and they will announce it.
Hey I heard BlackSheep is coming out with the Costello X is that their version of the Viper R?
I saw that the other day. The Costello X is going to have the clone carpet on it. It'll be the same materials as the Southwest Jefe.
Thanks for the response! Excited to see your review on it!
Which do like the best creature or chaos
Those are two different style of bags. It depends on how you want to play the game. If you want to run bags then go with the Chaos. If you want to play a dirty style game or you want to cut, roll, flop, etc then go with the Creature. Both bags are great. I carry both bags with me most of the time.
