Post from Timbo on another thread prompted this- My VX is my only motor But I'm having a hell of a time trying to transport the old golf sticks- defo don't go in the boot and the only time I tried to get the lot in the passenger seat I had to take the roof off and they ended up scraching the leather seat The only way I've found is to take the clubs out of the bag and hire a bag from the course. Apart from buying a Mondeo or giving up golf any suggestions how this prob can be overcome??

Can you hire a locker at the club? Most clubs will let you do this for a small fee.

Saw them down to a size that will fit in the boot on the VX and adjust your swing accordingly... ok i`ll get my coat... Andy

Not a member unfortunately Wonder if there is a luggage rack thingy similar to MGF that goes over the boot? Had a search of forum but can't see one mentioned.

[hunt_the_fox]

Is that cos you can't get them in the motor??

Get a towbar fitted and buy a trailer

[hunt_the_fox]

Not a bad idea, with a trailer I could fit golf clubs and a dog

Has no one invented telosopic (sp) clubs yet?? Would they work? 50% of profits if anyone does this

im sure theres a luggage rack u can get for a vx220, i could have sworn i see a mountainbike on a vx rack, or was it a vx220 strapped to the bike !!!

I got a luggage rack on the back for me birds luggage. Works fine. i bought it off ebay - there's a company in Germany that makes them. Doesn't look that bad either (doesn't look as good but practical). I don't have the ebay address - do a search for luggage rack - you might find it...

A full set of irons will go in a VX boot but only if you put the club ends in first on the left hand side (as there seems to be a bit of extra space here) and bag on top. No chance with woods though, these have to go in the passenger seat

[hunt_the_fox]

Had a search for the luggage rack on ebay, no joy, any idea who made it?

[mal_dun]

Take them out of the bag and they'll fit into the boot (well they do in a NA). If you have a softish bag this will fit afterwards. The woods take a bit of juggling around but will fit. I also carry mine as the passenger with the trolley in the boot.

Boot racks are >here< and click on "Galerie"

Get yourself a soft bag. Sorted

[oblomov]

Why don't you buy one of these new golf club sets that Tiger Woods has been endorsing that have the carbon fibre telescopic shafts that reduce to 1/3 size. They're supposed to be for people who travel on planes and things a lot but might do the trick

Give up golf HTH

Get yourself a soft bag.

Yes, let her carry them for you if she's daft enough
