Sun Mountain's ClubGlider: The Next Evolution in golf travel bags

MISSOULA, Mont. -- The new ClubGlider from Sun Mountain is the next evolution in golf travel bags offering extendable legs and wheels to support 100 percent of the weight while eliminating the repeated bending and lifting required with traditional travel bags. With the ClubGlider, walking around is effortless thanks to the maneuverability of the bag's pivoting wheels. ClubGlider will be in stores Summer 2008 with a full-suggested retail price of $299.99. For the retailer nearest you, call 800-227-9224 or visitwww.sunmountain.com.

ClubGlider offers all of the protection and storage space of a traditional golf travel bag while eliminating the heavy lifting and constant bending required to get through today's airport. ClubGlider literally glides from car to luggage counter and back again with legs and wheels that easily extend and retract for secure travel and pivoting wheels for superior maneuverability.

Making the cut from over 1,000 entrants in the Golf Channel "Fore Inventors Only" reality show, ClubGlider was named one of five finalists in this search for the next great golf invention. After reviewing ClubGlider, Senior Editor of Golf for Women and show judge, Stina Sternberg said, "I think you might have something fantastic here. I want it." Sternberg continued, "I travel every other week, I want one. A big, big "yes" from me." Shortly thereafter, ClubGlider inventor Gary Sherrell signed a licensing agreement with Sun Mountain to finalize the design, manufacture, and distribute the ClubGlider golf travel bag.

Benefits of ClubGlider include supporting 100% of the weight, eliminating on average over 22 pounds of pressure from the golfer's shoulders and back. ClubGlider can also be loaded while standing eliminating the need to bend all the way over as with other travel bags. Additionally, with the ClubGlider, the repeated bending and lifting while waiting in line is a thing of the past. Plus, ClubGlider can support additional luggage, freeing the traveler's hands. ClubGlider is simple, fast and easy to use with retractable legs and wheels that lock securely for travel. ClubGlider includes heavy-duty two-way zippers, thick foam padding extending down the travel bag to protect clubheads and shafts, two dual-entry storage pockets, internal cinch straps, ballistic fabric, vinyl-reinforced wear areas, and a lift assist handle.
