How are you transporting the minimum number of golf clubs while travelling?
I am trying to find a method to get my 3 loved golf clubs -- putter, wedge 56 and iron 6 -- with me during traveling without needing to take the whole bag. I am sailing, flying, trekking -- so carrying a real golf bag is not an option. I like to use them for all kind of fun during casual travelling.

There are several travel golf bags that will protect your clubs in the hold, as bags can get thrown around quite a bit. For example, Bagboy has two hard-cases. Hard cases are recommended over soft as some airlines won't pay for damage caused to clubs in soft cases.
If you want a cheap option, some pvc piping to protect the clubs, wrapped inside a soft bag may be the budget and lighter way to carry them.
A final alternative is the international golf club shipping company ShipSticks. There's a review by Forbes on the company if you'd consider that.
