Squeezing golf clubs into car boot

Apologies, if this is off topic...

Been considering recently to buy a new car, Volkswagen Golf...but the most important question, how many golf sets can be squeezed into the boot?

I had heard that the width is too little for putting a "driver" horizontally (i mean the golf driver, sorry the pun!)

Anybody driving a Volkswagen Golf for comments?

Typically if you wanna store your golf bag in a VW Golf, either you have to remove your driver from the bag or drop one of the seats to accommodate the whole bag!!!

Probably can squeeze bout 2-3 sets (Stand Bags) into the boot of a VW Golf.
This is based on removing Driver from the bag first

If you are currently driving, just bring your full golf bag to try... even if they have a golf bag in the showroom, they will not have a driver in the bag.

And also, how many bags youintend to put in there

Planning for 4 sets for games in Malaysia.

Good idea about bring my whole set down to try out the size, shall do that during test drive.

just bring it down to the showroom and squeeze. Last time when to view view cars, my first criteria is to be able to squeeze stroller... two X car seat.. 1 x Golf Bag (cart bag), duffel bag.. 2 x adult and 2 x kids

Makes me wonder why that particular model is so named.

It has nothing to do with the Game golf.. not really..

"The Golf name derives from the German word for Gulf Stream[dubious – discuss] — and the period in its history when VW named vehicles after prominent winds, including also the Passat (after the German word for Trade wind), Jetta (after the Jet stream), Bora (after Bora) and Scirocco (after Sirocco). "Golf" is also a sport, a theme that is shared with the Volkswagen Polo."

More like a mini bus is required...

I drive a small family sedan car. But luckily I am not good at using most clubs...and such, I bring lesser clubs. this has help me in fitting into my car

Don't forget that you'll also need space for other clothes bags, shoes etc.

If you have young children, you'll also need to squeeze in a stroller. Not easy!

bro... if you buy car for this purpose then u sh look for bigger boots car.those cars like vw, bmw3series, the boots are small, cannot fit golf bag...I had SONATA, can fit 5 golf bags properly arrange,, easily 4 bag .. I had once travel to GH with 5 bags..the car very spacious,, but petrol consumption very high..maybe camry wiil be prefered...

Yes, other than car performance, I was seriously looking at the behinds and must be big...I might drop the VW Golf idea and go for those with protrusions...

Even the Audi Q7 has a problem fitting a full size golf bag horizontally!!!
