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.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 26, May 30.  24 practice balls today;  dozen with the 6-iron, slow and usual full swing.   Because I wasn't super happy with my quarter and half swings yesterday, I also hit six of each with my UW.  What I didn't practice was a high shot that doesn't travel very far (no, I don't mean popping up a drive), and maybe that's something I need to figure out how to hit (probably would be outdoors, not inside).  Today's practice was, as many of mine are, indoors, off a mat, into a net, real balls.

      A nice consistent road is just as satisfying as a round with a few outstanding shots. nice round.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By Shindig · Posted

      I shot an 85 yesterday without any shots that really stood out as spectacular to me.  On the first nine, the highest SG shots that didn't originate on a tee were a 22 yard chip from the rough to 6' and sinking a 10' putt (not the same hole).   On the second nine, driver 4-hybrid to 17' on a 421 yard par-4 was pretty cool.  Sinking a 15' putt for par on the 420-yard par-4 15th was my largest SG of the day (0.98 vs 10 hcp), and that one goes on my acting resume because when it went in, I acted like I wasn't surprised I made the putt.   I'm a lot happier with that round than this post indicates.  It shows I can play to a pretty good score (a 10-11 handicap shooting 85 on a 70.9 / 125 / 6400 yard is a good performance I think) without having to work miracles.
