Naw!  No sweat!  Just leave the passenger at home.  Firmly fasten the bag with 
the seat belt and insure it can’t interfere with the right-hand yoke.
 
If the passenger is essential, perhaps you could make a hole in the seat-back 
and have the handle of the clubs extend between the pilot and passenger while 
most of the length and the club heads are back in the 9-cu. ft. baggage 
compartment.  I suppose you might have to limit how many clubs you carry this 
way.  But isn’t it an extra fun challenge to play the game with just three or 
four clubs each?
 
I don’t suppose we could get FAA approval for a belly-bag or belly external 
baggage compartment.  Wouldn’t that look cool, though, having what looks like a 
fuel tank or external bombs hanging below the plane?!?  Can you imagine the 
excitement and formation flying you’d get as you approach major cities?
 
Let us know how this all works for you?
