Critical Golf: Unbiased Golf Equipment Reviews

We love the ease of four-wheeling with the Samsonite Hardside through airports and hotel lobbies, and appreciate the lightweight plastic ABS protective shell. In addition, the Hardside is the only travel bag in our tests that features wheels that allow the case to stand vertically on its own, so it doesn’t take up yards of space as you wait in airport and hotel lines. Check out our detailed Samsonite Sportlab Hardside travel case review.

The Club Glove Last Bag is used by more professionals on the PGA Tour than any other bag, and we can see why. We love its heavy-duty construction and durability. Even better is the ease of traveling with the bag, which provides additional space for tossing in extra gear and has a soft cover that makes it easy to fit into trunks.

The SKB Deluxe Golf Travel Case (we tested the 2SKB-4814W) is a rugged hard case that can stand up to serious airline abuse. The kicker is that it comes with not only a warranty on defects in materials and craftsmanship, but also a unique $1,500 warranty to cover the cost of any equipment damaged by the airlines. Now that’s peace of mind!
