Agreed, love the full color ambush. Such a great design and bags are top notch. Wish the price was a hair more manageable but paying for quality for sure
Thanks for the review Mike. Buffalo is an exceptional company. Have their boards and I've yet to see a set as well built. The art work, quality, and customer service are nearly unrivaled (in my experience).
I agree I would love to have a Set of their boards I have the majority of their bags love them I just can’t pull the trigger on those boards are too pricey but great quality
Great review Mike. The set I got is one of the smallest sets I own. I really like them but they are just a really small template that when my partners throw them they get uncomfortable because they are alot smaller than what they usually throw. But it is a very hole friendly bag and very fast.
I've always heard people claim that different colors play differently. I've been wanting to test that theory. Maybe some day I'll do a video comparing the different colors to see if there is a difference. Vipers will play different depending on how much wear is on the dots. The more worn down they are, the faster they play. There are so many variables that go into the speed of a bag and one of those is the person throwing them. We all have different throws and that makes it hard listing a speed for a bag.
@@MikesBags Come to one of my league nights where you will see every Viper from series to the current 1 and multiples of each and the colors of the same Viper play different
I get that but there are so many other factors that can affect the speed that you can replicate exactly (the amount of dirt, sweat, grime on the bags, the wear on the fabric, the break in methods, etc). It easy to say the color is the only difference but that isn't accurate. I'm not saying the color doesn't affect the speeds but I don't know how much it actually does.
They don't release until March 23rd. I don't have a way to get them early so I'll have to wait and hope to get a set when they release. It'll be a week or two until I can get them reviewed.
This company is AMAZING. Customer service is top notch. Had a minor issue with a set of new bags I purchased on the secondary market. They had no obligation or responsibility to fix my problem. They went above and beyond for me, corrected the problem and much more! BEST customer service I’ve ever dealt with. This review stated bags are somewhat expensive. You get what you pay for! Moving forward this is the company I will support 💯!!
I agree. I had to reach out to their customer service once and they were awesome! They went above and beyond for me as well. I'm definitely a fan of what they are doing.
That's a tough question. I rarely throw one set of bags at a tournament. I'm always changing bags depending on the boards and what my opponent is throwing. For the speeds, I prefer a 4-5 slow and an 7-8 fast.
I just ordered the ignite X, they have the same speeds. Hopefully they feel good
Ignite X is the same bag as the Ambush.
Thanks for the review
Another great review mike! And yes you are correct we use the same fill on all of our bags.
Thanks for the confirmation. I thought that was the case but I was afraid to fully commit to that statment.
Agreed, love the full color ambush. Such a great design and bags are top notch. Wish the price was a hair more manageable but paying for quality for sure
Those color ones are awesome! I bought these on sale so I had to get what was available.
@@MikesBags you should review the BG Mercenaries next!
@Trevor Dase I don't have a set of Mercenaries to review. I need to get a set because I want to review them.
Love these bags. They do roll and cut extremely well.
I'm not good enough to roll a fast bag like this. 😁
Very cool video Mike. Thank you!

Buffalo is a awesome company! I really want a set of their good boards!

Same here
I got to throw on a set of their boards a few weeks ago. They are really nice. That price makes it tough to buy a set.

This bag for me is between a viper and the original sure fire
It's actually faster than the Viper. Same materials but without the control dots.
@@MikesBags i have the tan/ multicolored ambush. All the regular vipers play different. Different years and definitely different colors play different

Mike could you look into doing a review on the SEVA Penetrator bags? As always great video!
I'm working on a review of them right now. Hoping to have it out sometime next week.
should check out wreck it board
When is the Costello X review??
They don't release until March 23rd. I don't have a way to get them early so I'll have to wait and hope to get a set when they release. It'll be a week or two until I can get them reviewed.

If you had one bag to throw the rest of your life what would it be? And what are your favorite bag speeds?
That's a tough question. I rarely throw one set of bags at a tournament. I'm always changing bags depending on the boards and what my opponent is throwing.
For the speeds, I prefer a 4-5 slow and an 7-8 fast.
Buffalo sucks. Over priced bags.
I won't say they suck. Their bags are great. Their prices are the problem. I typically wait until they are on sale to buy them.
lol ever heard of cornhole scenario
