Hey, two weeks from now ill be flying into Florida from NY.  I bought a hybrid style travel bag.  Hard top and rest is soft.   Anybody have any tricks to maybe not get any damage to clubs from the airline worker tossing the bag like he's on the Highland Games?.   I saw rubber bands holding a few together, socks on club heads.  Any travel veteran have some neat tips?  Thanks

I use a good-quality travel bag (Club Glove), I use a "stiff-arm", I wrap a towel through and between the clubs, and I remove the driver head from the shaft.  I've flown a few dozen times with my clubs, and never had a problem.

Is it a Bag Boy? I have that and have never had any issues. It is the ONLY time I’ve used iron covers….lol. Should be just fine.

      Yikes! Colin Morikawa withdraws on 11th tee after the practice swing made his lower back twinge.

      Short Game Chef (Parker McLachlin) Short Game Videos

      By iacas · Posted

      My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.

      Short Game Chef (Parker McLachlin) Short Game Videos

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
