Golf Digest Awards Sun Mountain Golf Travel Bags

April 25, 2022 by Steve

Sun Mountain ClubGlider Meridian golf travel bag and Kube golf travel cover received 2022 Golf Digest Travel Essentials Awards.

ClubGlider Meridian golf travel bag with legs that extend to support all of the weight and the Kube golf travel cover that folds small for easy storage were deemed must-have golf trip and travel essentials, according to Golf Digest Editors.

Regarding the Sun Mountain ClubGlider Meridian golf travel bag the editors said,
“I pack my golf travel bag right up to the 50-pound limit, which makes it pretty tough to lug around airports and rental car parking lots. I got this Sun Mountain travel bag and haven’t looked back. Pull the stand out and your bag becomes basically weightless. Ok, not weightless, but I forget about how heavy the bag is until I pop my rental car’s trunk. It’s incredibly convenient: The gap between the legs and the bottom wheels is properly spaced out so that I don’t have an issue on escalators in airports. The stand can be a little tough to pop out, but once you get it you’re in for a much-improved airport experience.”

ClubGlider is the only golf travel bag that has extendable legs and wheels to support 100% of the weight, while eliminating the repeated bending and lifting required with traditional travel bags. ClubGlider is available in four different models – Pro, Tour Series, Meridian, and Journey – offering protection for golfers ranging from weekend warriors to touring professionals.

About the Sun Mountain Kube golf travel cover the Golf Digest editors said, “I hate having to find space to store my travel bag when it is not in use. This one folds into a little cube and I can forget about it until I need it again.”

Kube looks like an ordinary, small, plastic suitcase but unbuckle it and it opens into a full-sized golf travel bag. Kube is constructed from durable, ballistic style fabric in combination with plastic half-shells with dense foam padding through the top of the bag to protect golf clubs. When not in use, Kube folds small for storage.

ClubGlider Pro Awarded Golf Digest Editors’ Choice

April 2, 2020 by Steve

The Sun Mountain ClubGlider Pro was named 2020 Golf Digest Editors’ Choice for Best Golf Travel Bag.

The editors’ said:

“For the last few years Sun Mountain’s ClubGlider Meridian has been our top choice for travel cover. But what if you could have all the goodies that come with that model and make it large enough where you could possibly stuff two bags instead of one inside? When traveling you want as few bags as possible and the ability to possibly eliminate one is why the company’s ClubGlider Pro is our choice this year.

Starting with the pivoting handle that leaves you in control of the travel bag instead of fighting with it, the ClubGlider Pro addresses pretty much all the niggling things golfers tend to gripe about when it comes to travel covers. It has plenty of cushioning, so there’s no worry about club breakage, and has pockets to store anything you’re going to need on a golf trip and then some. Then there is the technology: a retractable stand with wheels that lets you cruise effortlessly to and through the baggage check line without constantly having to prop the travel cover up in a standing position. At your destination, the cover folds up easily and doesn’t take up all your trunk space.

In fact, about the only thing you need to worry about is airline weight limits for bags if you’re putting two of them in together.”

Golf Digest Awards Sun Mountain Best Golf Travel Bag

April 10, 2019 by Steve

For the fourth year in a row, the Golf Digest editors named the Sun Mountain ClubGlider Meridian the Best Golf Travel Bag and said,
 
“When looking at travel bags, the overriding thought is, How do I make the travel experience easier? Which is why our choice for best travel cover continues to be the Sun Mountain ClubGlider Meridian. In addition to checking all the boxes required of a travel bag—durability, pocket space, padding and an internal strap to keep the bag snug and not moving around inside—the difference-maker is the much-appreciated ability to effortlessly move through the airport. The ClubGlider Meridian has a retractable stand with pivoting wheels that allow you to move through the airport with minimum effort. It also lets you remove your hand to grab your I.D. or boarding pass without worrying about your travel bag toppling over.”

Why Use a Golf Travel Bag?

February 15, 2017 by Steve

Once the golf destination has been selected, the rooms booked and the tee times arranged; it’s time to figure out what and how to pack for the golf trip.  

Some of the options include: using rental clubs, shipping your clubs ahead of you, or checking your golf travel bag with you on the plane.

If you’re traveling on business, for instance, and just hope to sneak in one round, rental clubs might suffice. But for most golfers, golf is hard enough without having to figure out a different set of clubs. Shipping clubs is a viable option. So is shipping your clothes but we never do that, do we? There’s a sense of security that comes with packing your bags and taking to the airport and putting them on the plane with you and then having them immediately upon arrival.

Now that you’ve decided using a golf travel bag is the best option. What is the best travel cover?
