I just went from PHL to CUN and my golf bag was picked apart. Almost every club was in the wrong spot. I'm convinced I could have had a handgun in my checked bag with no issue, but they felt the need to inspect every club in my golf bag and my bandaids. Luckily I suck at golf and my game wouldn't have suffered with a shaft change.
That being said, if you have a hard travel bag and didn't notice much out of place, then bending in transit seems unlikely (someone please correct me on this if untrue).
As far as shoes, Footjoy BOAs have been awesome, but I'm kind of enjoying my Nike Air Zoom Victory Tour 2 NRGs right now (although I don't play much).
