Same happened to me 2 years ago They destroyed the zippers & ripped the handles of both ends and it looked like it was stuck on the belt burned a hole in the clear cover ,on my Lane masters 3 ball tote . To top it off they cracked by cell.  Southwest told me they would not cover it. And the next year the screwed up by new bag. So this year I got the Storm 3 ball roller with no clear cover, I am going to Line the bag with some extra foam rubber. So TSA can throw out the foam and say it was a hazard.  We used to do Bowling ball express for about 4 years it was $60+ one way for a 4 ball box. It is cheaper to buy a new bag every year then BBE. And to top it off BBE lost our stuff the last time we used them 3 years ago.

Hopefully you have better luck than I did.  I was coming back from a tourney in Vegas and after collecting my 2 ball bag, I opened it to check the status of the balls.  What I found was interesting, the 2 balls and padded holder had overturned inside the bag.  My brand new Reign Supreme had scratches on it (from the tumbling) and when I confronted the Southwest Airlines luggage representative all they could say was, "that they weren't responsible for damage to athletic equipment and that I should contact TSA."  My response, "no thank you, I already dealt with the Totally Stupid Agency (TSA) today," and walked away.
