Best Golf Travel Bags & Cases and Covers Reviewed for Performance and Security
That’s right, we are talking about good ol’ travel bags for golf clubs. Check out our top 10 choices on list below!
Standout Picks
Criteria Used for Evaluation
Brand
History of The Brand
This was a crucial and important aspect for us when taking each golf travel case into consideration. The reason being is that many golf brands hold a rich history of how they became to be. With such a historic and fan-favorite sport like golf, brand’s focus on appealing to the emotional and relatable side of a golf enthusiast. With that, much of our focus went into the history of the brand as far as quality of their products, recalls, and what service they offer individuals exactly.
Durability
The Durability of The Travel Bag
When it comes to the longevity of a golf travel bag, we wanted to ensure that each travel bag was made from the best materials. First of all, no individual wants to buy a travel bag to discover it breaking after a couple of times of use. With that said, this criteria really help the groundwork for which travel bags we would include.
Durability is of primary importance. When an individual takes into consideration that they will be storing clubs, wedges, shoes, sports equipment, and other extras, durability is vital. We realized many bags were made from a durable nylon material, ABS plastic, or other extremely strong materials that can stand the test of time.
Size
Travel Bag Size and Space
Now, the travel bag size and space became one of the pillars in which we would decide which travel bags to include. When an individual takes into consideration something as important as a gold travel bag, space becomes crucial. First of all, the bag cannot be too big that it would become cumbersome to travel with it and it cannot be too small to the point that they could not take much of their equipment. With that in mind, we can ensure that all of the travel bags we included on this list are designed and made with space in mind.
However, since space and size are subjective to the needs of the individual, we wanted to include a wide range of golf travel bags that fit different needs. This criteria then would lead us to the importance of the next one.
Pocket Space of The Travel Bag
As another crucial pillar in identifying the best travel bags, pocket space was of utter importance when it comes to picking out the best travel bags for our viewers. Why is pocket space so important? Well, individuals want to be able to take their clubs, their clothing, their equipment, golf shoes, golf balls, and everything in between. However, there are individuals that seek a more simple approach to their golf travel needs.
Therefore, we included a wide variety of bags with different pocket styles. Some had exterior pockets, mesh pockets, and inside pockets. It all depends on the user and their needs. With that, this criteria became very important when considering the right travel bags to include on this list.
Value
Cost And Value
Now, this may be the most important pillar of this criteria list. The reason being is that cost and value have to work synonymously with each other. If the cost is high but the value is low then an individual will be very hesitant to purchase a product. Now, it is vital to keep in mind that the cost for any type of travel bag tends to be relatively high. More so, the cost of a travel bag for a specialty sport such as golf can be even higher.
Other aspects that may raise the cost is the brand name, the materials of the bag, the size, pocket space, and other luxury features of the bag. With that in mind, cost and value is subjective to the user and we were eager to bring to our readers the best that each travel bag could offer. Which brings us to the next criteria!
Features
Luxury Features
This can be looked at as somewhat of a bonus. When it comes to a quality travel bag, manufacturers will include some form of luxury feature to enhance the quality of the travel bag. With that, we wanted to include bags that had an essence of elegance and quality to them. Whether they were sporty looking, traditional looking, or modernly urban looking golf travel bags, each one has different features that we considered luxury features developed by that particular manufacturer.
As an example, some brands included multi-directional spinner wheels while others included a business card window and luggage tag. This all depends on what users are wanting! However, as criteria, we discovered that each bag had something special to offer individuals.
Travel Bag Warranty
This may be considered, next to cost and value, the most important criteria that users and us take into consideration. The reason being is that no individual wants to buy a quality and expensive travel bag to discover that it has no warranty. A warranty ensures that in the case that the bag suffers wear and tear, individuals will be able to return it.
With that, we found this to be extremely important because the reality is that individuals that buy a travel bag will be most likely traveling often with them. More so, you never know what can happen to the bag while an individual is at the airport and it goes through the check-in process, etc. With that, we wanted to ensure that our readers were covered when purchasing their next golf travel bag.
