"Golfing equipment
A standard charge of 6kg will be applied on the golfing equipment if its weight and your other checked baggage exceed the free allowance entitled to you. This is applicable up to a maximum excess of 15kg for the golf equipment. Normal excess baggage charges will apply for any excess weight beyond 15kg.
Example: A passenger traveling on Economy Class and carrying golf equipment.

30 kg 10 kg 20 kg 6 kg + 5 kg 21 kg
30 kg 10 kg 3 kg 3 kg 13 kg

This special charge is only applicable to one set of golf equipment per customer.
One set of golf equipment is deemed to comprise:
1 golf bag containing not more than 14 golf clubs
Maximum of 12 golf balls
1 pair of golf shoes
Golf tees
Any additional golf sets shall be charged according to the standard excess baggage charges.
I interpret this that if you have 20kg baggage, and up to 15kg golf bag, you would pay $300 for the golf bag....which makes Ryan Air look good (I assume). The only way it's less than $300 is if your olf bag plus luggage comes in at under 26kg.
If this is correct I would be shipping my clubs seperately!!!
This is definitely the sort of thing to question via email before flying though - get it in writing and hope they put something nice in their response!
