A hundred yards out and 200 yards to the right doesn't count as a 300 yard drive...

Sitting here in my living room right now looking at the 7th fairway.

I played earlier.

About 25 cubic feet in cargo area - amazing

I get out about 15 rounds a year, although 5 of the months are almost unplayable in NY

In my old C4, 1/4 of the golf bag was on the center console area

I'm in the same boat (pun, not intended). Went from Boat to Dirt Bikes. Sold the Bikes, bought a Vette. Then, bought another Vette. Boat still on side yard.

I take the sticks on every trip, 5 hcp index. Another advantage for having the vette. Small golf bag with (2) soft luggage bags and (2) pillows -- Florida, Georgia, and Alabama (RTJ trail). Who needs the airport security? I would rather cruise to the golf courses. Plan on trips to Arkansas & Colorado this year for the scenic cruise along with some golf.

I chase the little white ball around (low 80's - low 90's).....not as much as I used to, but try to get out once a week. I'll take the clubs when we go on vacation. Truly amazing how much stuff fits in the back.

I play 2 to 4 times a week. I could fit 2 sets of clubs in my C4, but, it's so much easier in my C5.
And, as noted earlier, people ARE amazed at the amount of space in the back of my Coupe.
We'll be heading to FLA in Sept. for a week, and the Wife knows we're taking the Red Sled, and that everything will fit.

I play as much as I can. However I carry the clubs in the Sierra or the wife's Bimmer. No room in the vette due to the stereo
