Great review Mike! I played with these in a scoreholio last night and to me the bags felt and played a lot like Viper R bags. The owner of the the bags used a vinegar soak and wrinkle guard to break them in. They were the softest carpet bags that I have ever held. In the rounder I was using my Coyotes and then used my partner's Terminators during bracket play. The Terminators where very hole friendly and played a bit faster than my Coyotes. In my opinion if you like the feel of Viper R bags these Terminators are really close. If you want a fuller feeling bag I would buy the Coyotes.
That's interesting to hear. My Terminators pay a little slower than my Coyotes. Some of that could be the board conditions and weather. They are definitely soft bags.
Thanks Mike- I played with these recently. As you described them, they feel nearly broken in when you receive them. Not a bad bag at all and I think a lot of people will like it. I like Local as a whole, and their tame designs are actually very appealing in person...their colors really pop.For my game, the Hustler X, is the better bag. The only negative is it arrives feeling extremely crispy- they take extra work to break in.
Playing a Meeks barn the home of local I'd say that this is his top bag ATM seems like everyone has a set some have 2 sets lol but I've thrown it a good bit and can't really complain about it. But I know if a couple sets that got a decent flop and are pretty hole friendly.. but those people have really put in work to get them there. I'd still put legends over these tho
Another one in the hole 🕳️. Thanks for the review. I just purchased these as I wanted a totally different material to the popular viper r and the clones. I could see the downside of these not being hole friendly as the viper R. I will update you with my thoughts once I’ve had a chance to play with them. Also did you do any break in method with these? Toss sauce, Buffalo butter or vinegar?
I would love to hear your thoughts on them. They felt great brand new but I still did a quick soak with the OG Toss Sauce. I wanted to soften up the fast side a little more. It worked great.
Good review Mike I finally was able to get my hands on a set of Swag Bags Chaos they're always sold out so I got a set of Kabooms as well, while they're in stock
Is carpet similar to the carpet on AC Shag Attack?
No it's not. It's been awhile since I've seen a set of Shag Attacks but from what I recall, it's quite a bit different.
I threw these in a blind draw and they played very similar to a viper r
The Viper Rs that I had were much floppier and faster on the slow side. Plus, the fill is quite a bit different.
Would you prefer playing with the terminators or the hustler x?
If I had to choose only between those two, it would probably be the Hustler X.

@@MikesBags His bags were brand new. He never threw them and he broke them in right before the tournament. That might be why they played faster.
That makes sense. Mine slowed down after I threw them for a bit.

I like the Hustler X more, as well. Once it's broke in, it's a solid bag.
Great stuff Mike! Preference Local Terminator or Costello X? Thanks Mike
Terminators

I need to get a set of Legends to review. Quite a few people have mentioned them to me.
What would you prefer razor knuckle or this if it was just these 2
I would pick the Terminators if I had to choose only between those two bags.
@@MikesBagslocal has changed the fill and the carpet on the terminators we need a new review please

I'd love to hear your thought on them after you've thrown them some.
Personally I think these bags go brrrrr. Pew Pew with the Glicky
I couldn't disagree more. It's definitely blicky and not glicky.
