Second Opinion Product Reviews - Sun Mountain’s ClubGlider
By Bob Fagan
Seldom do I become so excited with a piece of golf
equipment as with Sun Mountain’s ClubGlider four-wheeled travel golf bag
carrier. Unlike other golf inventions, which may promise to shave a
stroke or two off your game, the ClubGlider actually improves your life.
I often travel by air and have lugged my golf bag to all points in the
US and many abroad. While I love playing new courses, I dread struggling
with transporting my golf clubs on long walks in and around airports. No
matter how lightly I pack my golf travel bag, the strain on my forearm,
shoulders, and back in bending over, lifting, and dragging my bag and
all begins to take its toll long before I even arrive at my destination
or hit a shot. No more, my days of drudgery are over with Sun Mountain’s
ClubGlider to the rescue.
My golf travel equipment has evolved from the canvas bag to the heavy,
but durable plastic carry cases such as SKB makes and then gravitated to
the lighter, heavy-duty fabric wheeled ones that Club Glove makes. All
have served me well, but my ClubGlider is worlds ahead of the
competition!
Why? This carry bag not only has the two wheels that you can drag, but
also has two sturdy pop-out ones that support 100% of my bag and
equipment’s weight. The Company estimates that the engineering
eliminated an average of twenty-two pounds of pressure on the arms and
shoulders, but with the way I travel, it may easily be twice that.
Not only have I eliminated all the constant bending over and picking up
motions, but as the product’s name would suggest, I can easily transport
all my equipment with barely my little finger. Now I glide through
airports. I even cheat and use the ClubGlider as a cart and put my
regular luggage atop it.
Really the ClubGlider has no competition as its retractable sturdy legs
can take a pounding and thanks to the maneuverability of its pivoting
wheels, turning and walking are virtually effortless. The ClubGlider
also offers all the storage space and protection of a traditional golf
travel bag. The ClubGlider is simple, fast and easy to use. The
retractable legs and wheels lock securely for travel. ClubGlider
includes heavy-duty two-way zippers, thick foam padding extending down
the travel bag to protect clubheads and shafts, internal storage
pockets, internal cinch straps, ballistic fabric, vinyl-reinforced wear
areas, and a lift-assist handle. It also conveniently folds up to fit in
car trunks.
The ClubGlider was introduced to the world via The Golf Channel’s 2008
Show, “Fore Inventors Only” and was a Final Five winner among a thousand
entries. Sun Mountain took over the design and offers three models of
the GlubGlider: the Cascade ($269.99 – lighter weight fabric), Meridian
($319.99,) and slightly larger Pro model ($349.99) that will accommodate
an oversized staff bag or two small carry bags. And wisely for security
reasons, the compartments are securely located inside the bag rather
than outside the bag as featured by some competitors. For the retailer
nearest you call 800-227-9224 or visit www.sunmountain.com. The
ClubGlider may be one of the best golf investments you make.
