Hard shell top does the job. Just two trips with this, but no issues with my clubs. Used a backbone and wrapped my clubs with a couple of towels, knee length athletic socks on the irons. Not a great amount of storage pockets, but did carry 2 pairs of shoes. Carry handle can be hard on the knuckles, but if you grab from underneath its much more comfortable. I like it.

Bought this to take my new Calloway clubs to Austin, TX. Very satisfied. However if you're traveling GET TO THE OVERSIZED PICK UP ASAP because there was NOBODY checking bag tags - and I was just grateful I got there quickly. Also a word to the wise, get a hard case because the airlines are having you waive any rights to damage beFORE you fly UNLESS it is a hard case. I'll be shopping for a hard case soon.

Okay just got my bag in the mail yesterday pulled it out quality is great very sturdy with very sturdy handles and solid grips the plastic part on top when zipped up feels very solid and seems like will protect the heads of my clubs nicely and it was very easy to open the bag up and put my clubs inside compared to the ZIP down the middle bag I had before. the extendable club thing I have inside my golf bags certainly helps make it feel more sturdy when lifting it up on the wheels the wheels are wider than my last bag and the bag doesn't feel like it's prone to tipping over which is a nice upgrade the pockets are nice on the outside because they're flush with the outer part of the bag and doesn't seem like it will get caught on things going through conveyor belts and what not going through the airport also the bag came all folded up inside of the hard shell which looks nice for storage and easy to nicely store it in your hotel when you get to wherever you're going or somebody's house. okay now for the reason why I gave it four stars instead of five which I would have given 5 if not for the top handle you use to pick up the bag to roll on it's wheels, your hand digs into the hard plastic and the zipper that goes around the bag and it was extremely uncomfortable so uncomfortable so that I would not have used the bag if I didn't make that second longer handle my wife lifted it up and put it down immediately because it hurt her hand. But the bag seems very nice now that I added that longer handle there you can see it in my picture ( I spliced a piece of 1/2 in rope on the handle with a thick piece of tube)so if you're willing to do that then problem solved it's a great bag!

I recently purchased the Caddy Daddy Enforcer travel bag for my husband in need of something to protect his new clubs on golfing travels. Past damage of clubs, he claims, was related to airline abuse his old travel bag failed to provide. If you've seen him golf I'm fairly certain you would agree, it wasn't necessary the airlines fault, but user error. Anyway putting that aside, this new Caddy Daddy bag seems very durable and well made. Two good sized exterior pockets are easily accessible using sturdy zippers for additional storage, hardy wheels for near effortless transport & a solid hardtop are a few great features. The bag faired excellently on its 1st trip and hubby is very pleased with overall use and how it protects his new clubs. Over time if his clubs become damaged he can't blame the airlines, this bag will provide solid protection from the rigors of airline travel.

I purchased two of these bags for a trip to UK. When we arrived, one of the bags had a crack in the top of the bag. Luckily my clubs were unharmed. I immediately reached out to customer service, and they told me they would send a replacement ASAP. My only concern at that point was how the bag would handle the trip home. I added some cushion inside just in case. When I got home, all clubs were still in the shape as when I put them in the bag despite the damage. Two days later, the replacement bag arrived as promised.

Great customer service, and a very quality product that stood up to some rough handling by airlines. I highly recommend these bags, not only for the protection they provide...but for the customer service behind the product!
