Pro Tip: Escape the Canadian Winter with a Golf Trip

With the holiday season right around the corner, that also means a big portion of Canadians are staring down a long winter ahead. Many out West have a lucky opportunity to tee it up 12 months of the year. But for almost everyone else, Canadians mix in a lot of golf travel through the winter months.

Golf vacations mean different things to different people, and part of the excitement of golf travel is the group chats leading into the trip itself – drumming up bets and good-natured ribbing, looking forward to seeing friends (or family) that you’ve not seen in a while, and talking about food and drink as much as birdies and bogeys keeps the energy flowing.

If you’re looking to book a trip now for the Spring, then there are plenty of great destinations in Canada to consider – in fact, the country is a pretty underrated global golf spot. But if you’ve had enough of the cold – already – and are thinking a sunny sojourn but are curious about what you’ll need to pack, and how you’re going to pack it, then GlobalGolf.ca has everything you need.

First and foremost, if you’re going on a golf trip you’re going to need your golf clubs. And with so many potential airline snafus seen-and-heard on social media, then it’s worth double-checking how you store your sticks. Some of the best golf travel bags come from the biggest names in the game already.

The Titleist Players Cover boasts a U-shaped opening for easy loading and unloading, while durable wheels provide easy transportation and interior straps keep your bag secured – not to mention, two(!) interior shoe pockets.

New from Cobra is the Crown Rolling Club bag which features external pockets for extra storage, a top and side-carry handle, plus durable heather material that surrounds the outside of the bag for extra protection.

The rolling travel bag from Ping can fit two cart bags in its extra-large cover while it can be transported easily either upright or tilted.

And for some extra protection there is the T-10 hard top travel bag from Bag Boy that boasts new StandGuard – a unique, high-density foam padding to protect the stand-bag mechanism while travelling, while an internal compression strap stabilizes the bag during travel, and an crush-resistant ABS top maximizes club protection.

While there are a few great options for the best golf travel bag, there’s a whole line of the best golf luggage from TaylorMade.

Whether it’s a duffle bag or rolling carry-on, the elite construction, extra pockets, and ample space make the TaylorMade line some of the best golf luggage out there.

So, while travelling can have its own stresses, with some of these golf-travel offerings, one thing you certainly won’t have to worry about is how your clubs – and your gear – are stored.
