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.

    • Finally slowed it down Feels like 30-50%. trying to make it look slow mo on normal mode.  And I’m trying to not let my hands go out and tip the club inside at A2. Also trying to not just carry a closed clubface up to A3 because it’s easy to keep the club head outside the hands if I just keep it turned down. Opening the clubface feels similar to flinging the club head inside at A2.  Better downswing stuff with the arms I think. Then just a reward, full swing at the end I like the athletic motion here. Shift, turn, using the left leg better. Club still steepens and too much right arm bend. The key will be able to do the body turn stuff and arm stuff. Together I can’t disassociate right arm bend from twisting. If I use my arms, my turn and athleticism dies. If I concern on the other, my right elbow stays bent.  
    • He’s playing well after playing horribly in the first round. He was like seven under through 12 or 13 holes.
    • Ok, here's a perfect example of what I HATE about the announcers "worship" of certain players. Just now at the Player's Championship Justin Thomas makes a 15 foot put and the announcer says "now he goes from trying to make the cut to being in contention!" JT MADE THE PUTT TO GO TO 2 UNDER WHILE THE LEADERS ARE AT 11 UNDER! HOW THE HECK DOES THAT PUT HIM IN CONTENTION!!! Ok...rant over...sorry about that!
    • Have you made an assessment of your body dynamics and strength. I watch a lot of the myTPI videos and they are always analyzing upper body strength, core strength and lower body strength as well as mobility. Then they see if the player's swing utilizes their body strengths. They also talk about muscle strength and muscle speed and how they are not the same. So if you move your muscles fast enough you need to work on strength whereas if you're strong enough but your muscles don't move fast enough you need to concentrate on speed. Mobility, strength and speed is where i would start analyzing myself.  If you are experiencing back pain with speed training however I would suggest you may have a technique issue that needs to be addressed first before you really hurt yourself.
    • Yeah, what brought the idea to mind was a birdie on hole 4, an uphill par 3.  Normally its about 175 yards, but from the forward tees it was only about 115.  I'd have felt guilty posting that one.
