"Simply put, traveling with golf clubs is a pain," said Keith Griffin at Las Vegas Review-Journal. But a new kind of golf bag from a startup called DV8 Sports could inspire a lot of casual players to carry clubs wherever they go. "These clubs are legitimate" — barely distinguishable from a traditional club in performance — yet you carry only a single two-piece shaft that couples securely to each club head. A full 10-club set ($899) weighs less than 16 pounds and turns golf into a more light-spirited pastime. "As company officials say, you can fit two sets of clubs in a Porsche 911 or take them on your Vespa."
