Golf Travel Bags
How to Pick the Best One
Whether you are a professional or an amateur golfer, golf travel bags are a must for any golfer who travels to play golf on business or vacation. If you are anything like me when it comes to packing for a trip, I want to take as little as possible. When end up packing some of stuff in a golf travel bag along with the golf bag and golf clubs.
As you are looking to purchase a golf travel bag you will want to debate which of the following features are important to you and which features that you will need as opposed to features that you want:
Storage Size
Face it, although we all would like to live out of a golf travel bag, most of the time the bag will be in storage somewhere in the house or the hotel room while on your trip. How small does it fold up becomes a legitimate question especially on your trip. If you purchase a hard golf case as it will not give.
TSA Approved
If you fly to your golf destinations you will want to make sure that you purchase a TSA Approved Travel Bag. As the airlines are restricting the types of bags they carry as well as the overall weight of a bag, owning a TSA Approved golf travel bag can ease many of your headaches. Many times, manufacturers will offer a TSA Approved lock for your bag. This will keep you from needing to purchase a new lock if the TSA decides they need to search the bag.
Wheels
Some people will think that this is a given but some golf travel covers today are still made without wheels. All you have to do is lug a golf travel bag through any major airport one time and you will be ready to purchase a unit with wheels. It makes maneuvering through the airport much easier and much less stressful.
Colors
The colors available are absolutely endless. You can purchase a black, green, pink or navy golf travel bag. You can pick your favorite colors or even pick your favorite college teams colors in order to show your school spirit. Many manufacturers will also allow embroidery on the bag. You can create a personalized golf travel bag by having your name, company logo or again your favorite college teams logo embroidered on the side of the bag.
Pockets
These can be on the outside or on the inside of the bag. Many bags will have pockets on the inside in order to carry your shoes on the trip. Other interior pockets can be used to store extra clothes for your trip if you are going to be in multiple climates while on your trip.
As you are shopping for your travel golf bag, you will need to compare the amenities that you need as opposed to what you want. Then comparison shop as you would for any other item to find yourself the best deal. Once you are done with this then you will be ready to plan a golf vacation.
