Glad to see that you are heading to PR for some golf. There are some great courses in the island. Try El Conquistador (not a single flat lie in the whole course), the St. Regis Bahia is quite challenging, and the Royal Isabella has some phenomenal views.

Regarding travel bags, there is a whole section within this forum with some great information/feedback on travel bags/airlines and travel tips. I suggest looking for it rather than repeating the same data.

Have fun in the island and safe travels!

You are going to get many different answers here, as have been posted in previous threads on travel bags. I used to use soft but went to SKB hard case several years ago due to too many bent carry bag legs. Never damaged shafts but TSA shifted bags where a leg was exposed to the soft side and piling up in the plane and luggage trams bent legs. I travel with Players 4 bags so small SKB works for me. Medium will allow for a larger bag or room for several pairs of shoes and rain gear. Hard also will help if heaven forbid, your international travel causes the bag to make multiple connections or get left behind and spend time in the rain or sent across country by mistake. Most airlines will treat hard case golf bags as regular luggage and may waive weight rules as long as it is not excessively overweight. Some airlines will not cover damage claims on soft cases. Check your airline for their specific policies. Safe travels! Have fun!

Never gone the hard case route.... Been a Club Glove guy from the beginning.. I have their latest travel bag and they've upgraded the padding and even has a TSA loch integrated into the case. Comes with the stiff-arm. The train system (luggage) makes skating through airport a breeze. I like a color other than black, as thats the one you'll see most at baggage claim.. Good luck!
