Trust me, you wont get them through security. i worked for xjt, before being furloughed and flew to my home town and wanted to pick up my golf clubs and bring them back with me. My dad brought them up for me and i tried to get through security with them and they pulled me aside for about an hour questioning me about why i wanted to bring my golf clubs on the plane. Nevermind i was in full uniform and all and they couldnt even provide a copy of the prohibited items there. So in answer to your question, NO, you cannot take them on the jumpseat or through security. You have to check them as checked baggage. I tried and failed.
