Need a Golf Travel Bag? Start Your Search HerePlanning a golf vacation? Don't forget the right golf travel bag to protect your golf clubs. How do you choose the golf bag that is right for you? Let's take a quick look at three different styles to help you make the right choice.  A Great Soft-Style Bag Remember, making the right choice isn't only about the bag itself. Golfers planning a golf vacation or just looking for protection on short golf trips should ask themselves a few questions before making a purchase. What is your budget for a golf travel bag? Do you travel frequently with your golf clubs? Do your golf trips mostly include air travel or auto travel? With these questions in mind, let's take a quick look at the different styles of bags, the benefits and negatives each offers and where to buy your golf bag. The Hybrid Golf Travel BagThese types of bags are golf bags with a hard top to protect your clubs. Hybrids do not protect your day-to-day golf bag.For golfers with space restrictions, a hybrid golf bag is a plus. They require less space and also weigh less. These types of bags are also not the best choice for airline travel and are not your golf bag. Therefore you must unpack and pack all of your golf gear each time you travel. If you travel more often by automobile and have an extra set of golf clubs, hybrid bags are a good choice. Golfers can pick up a hybrid bag for as little as $60 with top of the line bags going for around $230. The Soft Golf Travel BagThink of this style of travel bags as a soft, padded, glove that covers your day-to-day golf bag and clubs. Usually, these bags come with a rigid bottom and wheels to help golfers carry them from location to location.Do you carry a lot of golf gear on your golf vacations? If so, a soft-style case might be the right choice for you. These travel bags also breaks down easily and take up less storage space than hard case bags. Some of the negatives associated with soft-style golf bags are mobility and protection. Soft bags usually do not roll as easily as hard cases. Also, these bags do not offer the same protection as hard cases. Your club heads are especially vulnerable in a soft-style bag. PGV.com Insider's Tip - If you choose a soft-style golf travel bag, I highly recommend that you pick up a Stiff Arm accessory. This will protect your club heads in the event of a direct impact to the top of your bag. The best soft-style bags can cost anywhere from $120 - $300. The Hard Case Golf Travel BagThese bags provide the highest amount of protection and security by encompassing your entire bag and golf clubs.Do you travel by air to most golf vacation spots? Unlike other styles, airlines will often cover any damage incurred when your clubs are in a hard case travel bag. When it comes to storage, hard cases take up more room than other styles of bags. They also do not hold all of your golf gear. For the golfer who plans more trips by automobile, hard cases might not make as much sense as hybrids or soft-covers. Hard case golf travel bags average $130 with top of the line cases costing around $300. Remember to think about the type and frequency of your golf travel, how much protection you need for your golf clubs, and what type of budget you have for your bag. Choose wisely. Protect your investment. And, most of all, enjoy your golf vacation! Done reading about golf travel bags? Return to our golf equipment reviews page. |
