A belt system, comprising:
- an elongate belt member comprising a first end, a second end and an inner surface near the second end, wherein the inner surface has a series of teeth;
- a buckle system removably attached on a first end of the belt member, including a ratchet assembly that engages the series of teeth on the belt member, the buckle including a clamp mechanism that clamps onto the first end of the belt member to secure the belt member to the buckle system, and wherein the buckle system further includes a slot that communicates with an internal cavity of the buckle system, the slot being formed by a space between a front door and a rear structure of the buckle system;
- and
- a divot repair tool that fits through the slot into the internal cavity and at least a portion of the divot repair tool is secured within the internal cavity by a crossing member, wherein at least a portion of the crossing member is configured to extend over the divot repair tool.
