Heated golf bag apparatus

A heated golf bag apparatus comprising:

• (a) a golf bag having a hollow golf bag interior, an open top end, and a bottom end, said bottom end defining a heating chamber;
• (b) a heater being disposed within said heating chamber;
• (c) a fan disposed within said heating chamber, said fan circulating air within said heating chamber;
• (d) a plurality of tubes having a hollow tube interior, an open top end, and an open bottom end, said bottom end having a plurality of heating slots, said tubes being disposed in said hollow golf bag interior, said open bottom end of said tubes extending into said heating chamber, said heating slots on said bottom end of said tubes disposed within said heating chamber, said heating slots thereby permitting heat and air to circulate into said hollow tube interior from said heating chamber, said open top end of said tubes extending towards said open top end of said golf bag, said tubes being adapted to accept golf clubs into said hollow tube interior from said open top end of said tubes;
• (e) a plurality of switches being operatively connected to said heater, at least one of said switches being disposed in each of said hollow tube interiors, said switches being adapted to engage a golf club being accepted by one of said tubes, said heater providing heat to said heating chamber when activated by said switches, said switches activating said heater when a golf club is removed and then reinserted into the same said tube;
• (f) a timer being operatively coupled to said heater, said timer controlling the length of time said heater is activated;
• (g) a thermostat being operatively coupled to said heater, said thermostat controlling the temperature of the heat said heater provides;
• (h) a battery being operatively coupled to said heater and being operatively coupled to said fan, said battery powering said heater and said fan;
• and
• (i) a diaphragm being disposed within of said hollow tube interior of said tubes at a point between said open top end of said tubes and said heating slots of said bottom end of said tubes;
• said diaphragm being adapted to allow golf clubs to pass through said diaphragm, said diaphragm having a series of radially inwardly directed flexible protrusions for engaging a golf club passing through said diaphragm and providing a barrier to heat passing upwardly through said tubes.
