If you’ve ever navigated a crowded airport with your golf clubs, dealt with costly airline baggage fees, or anxiously awaited their arrival at baggage claim, you understand the challenges of traveling with golf gear. That’s where ShipSticks comes in.
Part of the Ship&Play family of shipping solutions, ShipSticks has been making stress-free golf getaways possible since 2011. And, with ever-increasing airline baggage fees and mishandled baggage rates through the roof, more golfers than ever are opting to ship their clubs instead. So, while everyone else is waiting in lines at the airport, you’ll be meeting your clubs at the course in Scottsdale, or wherever your fall golf trips take you. Here’s a closer look at how ShipSticks works and some insider tips for shipping golf clubs to and from your destination.
Start by visiting ShipSticks.com, where you can schedule your shipment based on your destination and travel dates. Once your order is placed, you’ll receive shipping labels, detailed instructions, and a link to track your clubs in real-time.
PRO TIP: Schedule your delivery at least one business day ahead of your first round of golf, so your clubs will be waiting for you upon arrival.
ShipSticks makes it simple: your clubs and luggage can be picked up directly from your home, office, pro shop, or even your hotel. Prefer to drop them off? That works, too, at local carrier locations like FedEx or UPS.
Packing is straightforward. Use a soft travel bag or hard case, just as you would if checking them at the airport, or opt for a box for extra protection.
PRO TIP: Add golf towels or bubble wrap to cushion your clubs during transit, and travel with peace of mind.
With your clubs en route to your destination, you can avoid time wasted at the airport, excessive baggage fees, the costly SUV to fit your gear, or resorting to rentals. Arrive at the course relaxed and ready to play – to the envy of your foursome.
PRO TIP: Several rounds of golf can take a lot out of you. Plan to ship your golf clubs and luggage home, too, and savor every second of your getaway.
Trusted by pros, weekend warriors, and thousands of golf courses and resorts nationwide – including Scottsdale favorites like We-Ko-Pa and The Westin Kierland – ShipSticks makes golf travel simple.
