Sure, your golf clubs are important. But there’s more to planning that buddies golf getaway than just throwing your sticks in a travel bag and hoping they make it to baggage claim at the same time you do.

Let’s face it, some travel accessories are just more important than others. Some are practical, others will add to your enjoyment and some, well, they just look really cool.

But make no mistake they are all important and serve a necessary function: tracking your bag, protecting your clubs, storing your clothes, recovering after a 36-hole day and more. And the best part? Most all of these below items would work for any trip, business or leisure. No, you won’t need the alignment sticks on your work trip, but these backpacks or duffels would certainly be nice additions.
