I have an old "SKB" hard case that's about 50.5" high and very bulky. Something like this one:

I travel a lot and use Uber. This thing almost never fits in an Uber trunk which is typically some mid-size car. Same problem with the rental car. It's a pain having to take up the back seat with just the golf equipment.

Is there some minimalist travel bag that would hold my golf stand bag and clubs, and not add so much bulk? 

 

I use old Taylor Made clubs from eBay and golf shops.

A driver is already 45" so there isn't much you can do about the length of the case. You could get one of the travel bag/case combo bags like this one http://www.rockbottomgolf.com/caddy-daddy-golf-co-pilot-2-travel-case.html?utm_source=googleshopping&utm_medium=cse&utm_term=02CDYCPILOTPRO21111BKB01

Interesting idea. It's hard to know if it will fit a basic trunk until someone tries it . 

49” x 16” x 12” Dimensions (with pockets expanded)

Just measure the trunk of my compact car. Though the trunk is 51" wide at the widest section of the interior the actual opening for the trunk door is only 44". It think it would fit if the bag were entered at an angle but it would be close.

I appreciate that.  The hybrid would probably be much better than that enormous trunk think I have. I'm getting ready to take it to Houston tomorrow.

I use the caddy daddy. It's great for travel and when faced with a small taxi with lack of space it goes in the front passenger seat, with or without me there too. It's the best solution I've found. Better than hard cases or the slip over travel bags

I have one of these that I inherited from my dad. I think I am missing the pin. Sadly I don't think they make it anymore but one was sold on ebay for 61 clams. It may work for you if you can locate it.

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
