It’s not easy travelling with golf clubs. They are a big and heavy item, and bulky, and expensive, and not the sort of thing you want broken often.

It’s not enought to just zip up the golf bag and put it on a plane, there’s been so many stories of golf clubs lost, broken, stole, or something else happening, like all the balls going missing.

No problem, because I think that a good golf travel case is a fine gift for a man who love to golf and travel. A golf travel case is a case into which he puts his golf clubs, and usually his golf bag as well. It is closed up, or better still completely locked, and is perfect to put on the plane.

There’s 2 types of golfers travel case. There’s the soft travel case which, as the name suggests, is made of soft material. It should be padded inside though, and ideally should come with small wheels so that he can pull it through airports and hotel lobbies, though often they can be a little difficult to pull.

Then there’s the hard golf travel case. Again as the name suggests, it’s made of hard material like molded polyethylene plastic, and offers total protection to his clubs. Usually, though not always he puts his entire golf bag into the hard case.

They are usually almost indestructible, and it is sometimes claimed that they can be dropped from the plane and the clubs will still survive. The best ones even offer free golf club insurance in the event that the golf clubs are damaged on the flight.There are advantages and disadvantages to both types. The soft cases offer less protection but are less expensive, and easier to store. The soft cases can be ideal if he just travels a lot by car for example, butnot ideal for plane travel.

The hard cases offer total protection but are expensive and a ………. to store. These are the ones usually used by professional golfers because they make their living with their clubs.

Whichever type you think would suit his needs, if he’s a golfing man and loves to travel with his golf clubs then consider a golf travel case for him. It makes a fine gift idea. You can buy soft cases for under $100, and hard cases for more than that.
