5 Tips How to Pick a Golf Club Shipping Case in 2021

Golf has for long been referred to as the rich man’s sport. This perhaps comes from the fact that most of the players we know about are filthy rich and are established people in the society. This is however far from the truth. Golf is anyone’s sport. The beauty about this sport is that anyone and everyone can play it-given the right equipment and right surface to play on. This perhaps is the other reason that many people cannot play golf today. Most of the equipment used to play golf come at a very high price. The golf courses can also be very expensive to maintain and the subscription fees levied on the members can be quite high. 

Away from the cost of golf equipment, it is important to mention that golf is a sport that presents its players massive opportunities to travel to various destinations to take part in tournaments across America and all around the world. There are very many tournaments every year and if you are an active player, you will get massive opportunities of touring some of the best courses the sport has to offer. It truly is a beautiful feeling travelling around the world to play the sport you love the most but the journey itself can be a nightmare if you don’t pack your equipment properly. 

Whether you are driving or flying with your golf equipment it is important to make sure that they are packed in the best possible way to minimize losses arising from breakages and scratches. As I earlier on mentioned, golf equipment can be very expensive and any losses can proof costly in the end. You therefore need to get the best cases and golf bags suited for your clubs to reduce the risk of breakages and bending while you are travelling. When shipping golf clubs, you need to pack them in their respective bags and then use a hard shell case to further protect them. Hard shell shipping cases are meant to protect fragile equipment like golf clubs, electronics and anything delicate meant to be shipped over a long distance. There are very many things you have to look at when shopping for the best golf club shipping case for your shipping. Here are 5 tips on what to consider when buying a shipping case for your golf clubs;

1. Durability 

The first thing that you obviously have to look at when shopping for a shipping case, is the durability. You want to buy a case that will last for long and offer quality service over the years. When shopping for a hard case for your golf clubs, you essentially want one made from polycarbonate. Polycarbonate is not only light to carry around but is very durable. There existed metallic cases before but they have since reduced in number because they were very heavy and were easily affected by the elements. There are different grades to the materials used to make the hard cases and you want the best grade though they last a quid more than the other grades.

2. Size 

When shopping a hard case for your clubs, you equally need to consider the size. Most people buy just about the size that fits only their golf clubs but this is not recommended. The best size to buy is a case that leaves room even after you pack all the golf clubs. This gives you an allowance in case you want to buy more gear in the future. The room left however should not be too much. You want your golf clubs and any other gear to remain compact inside the case and too much space can affect this.  

3. Wheels 

The other thing to look at when shopping for a hard case for your golf clubs is the number of wheels. For convenience when moving around, most hard cases are fitted with wheels for mobility. Wheels make manoeuvring cases much easier and, since they tend to utilize 360 degree wheels, it’s harder to flip, drag, or lose the balance on heavy bags. This is a huge perk for those who need to get to multiple flights or have heavy items in their luggage. When shopping for a case for shipping, you essentially are looking for a case with either two or four wheels. Depending on the number and size of your golf clubs you can opt for either a two-wheeled case or its four wheel counterpart.

4. Colour and other customizations 

The other thing to look at is the colour of the hard case. This will be affected largely by your way of life and your preferences. Be mindful of the colour you settle on though because some colours are prone to staining more than others.

5. Price 

Finally, think about the price. For every price range, there is a grade of a shipping case. The most expensive cases are most of the times the most durable. There are other medium price cases as well which will offer quality services for quite some time. Make a decision and choose on what you feel suits you best.
