CaddyDaddy Constrictor Soft-Sided Golf Travel Bag Cover with Padded Top, Wheels & Lockable Oversized Zippers | Case for Transporting Clubs on Airlines | 1 Year Travel Case Replacement Coverage

I purchased CaddyDaddy’s Constrictor and Defender bags. Although the Defender is 1 in. shorter and is a bit tight fit for my (typical) 45 in. driver protective crown, I decided to keep the Defender due to personal preference. I have worn thru 3 travel bags and 2 protective crowns purchased at sporting goods stores over the past 20 yrs. I decided to look on Amazon after a disappointing visit to my local sporting goods store – bags are not what they used to be – now poor quality/high prices ($200 – $300).Why I gave 5 stars (vs other $100-$300 bags online and at sporting goods store): the Constrictor and Defender bags were designed with durability and some extra packing space in mind. The fabric is significantly thicker/stiffer and the zippers are larger/stronger. My travel bag is also part suitcase. I typically throw a pair of gym shoes, flip flops and a couple small bags of clothes in there too. Similar to my previous bags, Constrictor/Defender includes: lower back of bags have riveted plastic skin & rails to protect rolling onto high curbs, airline carts/conveyor dings and Uber drivers jamming bag into tight trunks; and thick padding around clubhead area.If you’re looking for a travel bag because you’re flying, don’t buy a cheap travel bag for your precious clubs and do what my friend did – use towels, bubble wrap and string to cushion. TSA inspects all golf bags. They’re in a hurry and don’t like having to spend extra time unraveling towels/packaging tape/untying string. After inspection, your cushion won’t be cushioning your clubs. If you do buy cheap, include a roll of duct tape in your bag. You may need it on one of your return flights…haha!
