Samsonite "The Protector Hardside and Softside Golf Travel Bag with Shark Wheels, Waterproof Exterior

The media could not be loaded. This is a great quality bag, from the zipper pulls to the buckle straps, this bag feels and looks premium. I filled it with a cart bag carrying14 clubs, a set of balls. It stood upright with ease. I could see if your bag was top heavy it may throw off the ability to stand up right. I was weary of the wheels when making the purchase but they glide over the floor effortlessly. I am super happy with my purchase and look forward to taking my clubs to Hawaii.

Ergonomically unsafe when used upright as a spinner, bends in middle no matter which way it is packed and tends to list to one side. Tips over very easily at most inappropriate times in crowed airports striking self and others. Difficult to upright when falls while carrying other bags and by self mainly because the frame is not support in the middle this and tends to sag. For the same reason it is difficult and heavy to pull as a two wheeler. I believe it needs a wider base possibly round with multiple wheels and more support structure through the center third. Handle placements on body are inappropriate and make no sense. I wonder if the developer ever talked to and got input from golfers. The errors in construction which includes balance, maneuverability, ergonomics, and safety are glaring. They need to start over. I would be happy to provide more input. A an aside, the airline tore a hole in the outside accessory zipper compartment and as of to date they will not stand by their responsibility to repair it claiming normal wear and tear.I have used this bag once thinking it might the final answer (Holy Grail) to smooth air travel. I was wrong. I would not recommend this product to anyone who considers buying a new travel bag.

First things first, when expanded, this bag is enormous! I have a Ping Hoofer golf bag and it takes up only about half the available space. The Samsonite is so tall that my "stiff arm" protector won't reach the top. As a result, as other reviews have pointed out, the whole thing flops over. Also, with so much space between the golf bag and the sides, it doesn't offer much protection in the middle and there is a fair amount of loose material to catch in conveyor belts and such.It does fold down pretty small and looks to be well made. If you want to pack it tight (possibly could hold two golf bags), it might be the right travel bag for you. However, I need something smaller and it's just not going to work for me...

Purchased this item for long distance travel requiring flight travel. This is a hybrid type between hard and soft cover golf flight carrier. I previously have used a soft type golf flight carrier with two wheels; it worked fine but required some extra strength to move it when bag is heavy. Thus I was interested in owning a four wheel golf flight carrier. Some reviews have mentioned that the carrier tends to fall over; but I have not experienced such fall yet. The golf carrier can be moved quite easily with not much strength but probably with two hands to prevent a fall. The golf flight carrier held well through the first flight from Gimpo to Jeju island. All four wheels were intact after the first flight. The wheels are odd shaped but works great. The only downside to this golf carrier is that it's a bit too bulky. The bottom part of the carrier is made with square shaped plastic and can not be folded down. When filled with golf bag and clubs, the golf carrier takes up quite a bit of space in a car. Overall, I recommend this product until something better shows up.

The bag is durable and protects the clubs well but allows too much distance between the longest clubs and top. In addition, the tie down mechanism inside, seems to be made only for an extra large bag. With my clubs inside, the bag wants to flop over making it hard to stand upright and really hard to pull down a hallway.It does look nice as I received many compliments on it and it has shoe pockets etc. but, it's functionality to and from the airport is difficult at best.

Pull or push, it's great

Great product, sturdy. Keeps straight during travel and has a good firm Top to protect the clubs.

I got to use this bag twice, the second time one of the wheels was ripped off in transit. The bag doesn’t stand on its own anymore, basically unusable now.
