can you get 2 x sets of golf clubs in a Boxster?

[RichB]

OK chaps, I know I can get one set of clubs and a bag in my Boxster, this by putting the driver and woods in separately slotted in diagonally but can you get two sets in?

[mrdemon]

what do people see in golf ?

Hit a small ball down a field and try and get it in a very small hole.

Seems a stupid games imo.

U can fit 2 sets in, need to take them out of carry bags tho. U tube it for better instructions!

yes they will go in...the youtube things a bit ott, but works, otherwise 2 x small bags without stands, fabric type with soft bottoms, mizuno, titleist do them...woods still need to go the diagonal though...

So is that a yes or a no?

[nsm3]

I don't play, but I suspect they get the same out of it as you do, pi55ing about with a perfectly adequate sports car and spending loads of dosh, to get thruppence 'appenies worth more performance out of it?

[RichB]

Thanks for the answers chaps. My brother asked me because he's thinking of getting one but lives in Dubai so can't look at mine, and as I only have one set of clubs I couldn't test it.

Mr Demon (what a self-conscious name!) get a life and stop wasting it on the Internet answering threads in which you have absolutely no interest.

It's nothing to do with hitting a ball about the field - it's about a day out with your mates, away from it all, fresh air, bit of a walk, good laugh, Pint afterwards.

Surely the DRIVER must go on the drivers seat???

That sounds OK but I think the golf would just get in the way It's not for me, but whatever floats your boat I guess.

Yes you can get two sets in. In my experience with giving different people a lift to the course, the frustration level depends on the type of bag. Ones with large oval base, like the Ping Hoofer can be very awkward. Bags with narrower bases are easier, like some Titlest & Mizuno bags. Also given your brother is in Dubai, I doubt either bag will be carrying waterproofs, fleeces etc, it should be slightly easier.
This was in a 987.1 which has the coolant and oil caps exposed in the corner. I believe the 987.2 has a slightly different design where these are concealed behind a flap, which may free up a bit more space.

I get my full set in a squashy bag to the rearmost part of the boot. Put the heads in the offside corner and the bag at a diagonal and then straighten the bag in the boot. That leaves enough space for a large bag without the woods, which fit behind the seats. That bag goes in head first to the offside allowing the base to slip into the other side. Very easy with a little practice.

[madala]

....yup I reckon it's do-able.....;)

You're not talking about a Boxster are you

eek: You're not talking about a Boxster are you

Indeed I am - my Boxster is my practical car. Even with seats fully back there is room. My Boxster was bought specifically to carry two sets of clubs as I play with someone who does not drive (cars!). We comfortably managed a 600 mile round trip to Yorkshire with two full sets, two foldable trolleys and enough cloths/ golf gear for three days away.

Two sets of clubs, two trolleys and clothes for three days! Now I don't know if you're winding me up or if what I've got on the drive isn't actually a Boxster! For one thing, there is absolutely no space behind the seats in my car, they are hard up against the bulkhead. Even with me driving at 5'9" there's no room for my jacket behind the seat and my wife can't even get a handbag behind let alone a golf bag. Perhaps I have the extra fat seats, that or you have the paper thin ones As for the golf trolleys now you're just having a laugh surely?

I call custard test on that. I was able to get one set in, just about. Bag in the rear, trolley in the front and driver in passenger seat!

[RichB]

Honest question, are there some 987 seats which are much thinner than others? Mine really are jammed back against the bulkhead?

[x12yhp]

I often got 2 sets and stand bags into the boot (rear) of the car. You do have to take the long sticks out of the bags but it wasn't a massive problem. I can easily imagine being able to get a couple of small trolleys and bags into the front boot as well!
