Travel can be stressful. Here are 10 ways to make your next golf trip feel effortless | Travel | GOLF.com
The difference between a smooth golf trip and a stressful one usually comes down to a few small decisions made before you leave the house. Not to harsh your mellow, but … abide by them!
Sometimes choose convenience over pilgrimage
Remote golf adventures, from Bandon to Dornoch, are hard to top, but plenty of outstanding courses and golf-rich destinations — from Torrey Pines and Pinehurst to cross-the-pond musts like Muirfield and North Berwick — lie within easy reach of major airline hubs.
Pack a half set
Seven or eight clubs in a lightweight carry bag are easier in airports and easier to fit in rental car trunks. They inspire creative shotmaking and can even yield lower scores.
