I'm looking to buy a new travel cover. I think I prefer a soft cover, and have been looking at the OGIO Straight jacket. Can anyone share their experience with the straight jacket or maybe recommend another travel cover?

Thanks

I bought mine this winter at half price from TGW, last years model, used it once Minnesota to Pheonix and back. Worked great, well made, plenty of room for extras, wheels easily protected my clubs just fine with addition of a PVC pipe (and bubble wrap around clubheads) to protect driver shaft. My clubs, Ogio carry bag, pair of shoes, dozen balls, and towels put the total near the airline weight limit so you can't use all the available space anyway. When shopping I found nothing comparable but I paid half price and my local stores had very poor selection of travel bags.

Big fan of my SKB. Three trips so far and I can tell the case has not been treated well. Throw in a straight arm and wrap the heads to prevent rattling and presto! No worries!

I absolutely love my bag. Its a hard shell that you take the top off and can use it as your bag. I get compliments on it at every airport I have ever been. I was so afraid of getting a soft bag because I thought at any time a suitcase could fall on it and break something.

I saw the reviews for the clubglider, but I don't see myself dropping that much money on my crappy clubs, especially since I'm only going to be using it maybe once a year. That said, it does look like a great product.

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
