The swathes of British golfers who travel away to sunnier climes to play their golf every year should remember to ensure the safety of their clubs, according to one expert.
Graham Norwood of the Independent has pointed to figures from Monarch Airways which show that Brits who play golf abroad go away to play twice a year on average, highlighting the different ways to protect bags in transit.
He recommended the harder golf travel bags for maximum protection, while not discounting the use of softer or hybrid products.
"There is a hard-case golf bag, made from a form of plastic, or even Kevlar, that will withstand the worst that turbulence and baggage handlers can offer," said Norwood.
He went on to say that soft travelling bags are "the easiest to transport but offer little protection".
Meanwhile, newly-released figures show Wales has seen an increase in its revenue from golf tourism - up to 26m in2007, compared from £23m in 2004.
