I’m curious if anybody has had issues with clubs getting lost? I always worry about that when shipping, even with good packing.
I shipped my clubs once and they arrived late, but thankfully intact. Still, that worry is real!
To add on, I’ve used a shipping label that you can track. It usually helps ease my mind while waiting for my clubs to arrive.
I always pack my clubs in their original boxes if possible. They are designed for protection, so if you have them, use them!
That’s a fantastic suggestion! Those boxes are designed for a reason.
Packing tape is your best friend. Make sure to tape up all flaps securely, so nothing accidentally pops open during transit.
Absolutely! I’ve seen some horror stories of poorly taped boxes at the airport.

I’ve shipped my clubs multiple times with Ship Sticks without a hitch! Just follow all these tips, and you should be good to go!
I can’t help but chuckle thinking about how protective we get about our clubs! It’s like they’re our little babies traveling abroad! 
I’ve used Ship Sticks a couple of times for my golf clubs. Definitely check their insurance options before shipping. Make sure your clubs are covered for full replacement value just in case!
Great advice! I’ve heard their insurance is decent, but have you ever had to file a claim? How did that go?
I’ve never filed a claim, but I was told to keep all packaging and receipts. That way, if anything happens, you have proof of value. It might also help speed up the claims process.

That’s a smart tip! Do you think it’s worth getting additional insurance through a third party to ensure coverage?

I think it depends on how valuable your clubs are. If they’re top-tier, extra insurance might be wise. Just read the fine print on both policies to avoid surprises!

For sure! I’ve had items lost during shipping before. The claims process can be a nightmare if you aren’t prepared. Good luck, and let us know how it goes!

Totally agree! Last time I shipped my clubs, the coverage seemed too limited, so I passed.
One thing that surprised me was how quickly they processed claims! Just keep good documentation, and you should be fine. Have fun golfing!
Glad to hear they handle claims well! Have you ever had any actual losses while using them?
No losses on my end, but I have heard mixed reviews from friends. One friend’s bag arrived damaged, and he had to push hard for compensation. It varies!
That’s concerning! It sounds like it can be hit or miss. Any tips for ensuring everything arrives safely?
