Abstract
Golf clubs can be suspended within a golf bag by the use of an add-on club holder releasably attached to the upper edge of a conventional golf bag. The club holder can include an elongated bendable strip having a number of supporting clamps spaced along the strip lower edge to grip the upper edge of the bag. The strip is bendable to conform to the shape of the bag perimeter edge. Heads of the golf clubs can be positioned in slots in the upper edge of the bendable strip. Each slot is aligned with a cantilever finger extending from the elongated strip so that the finger prevents the head of the golf club from slipping out of the slot.
Claims10
A golf club holder comprising an elongated bendable plastic strip having an upper edge and a lower edge, and means for mounting said bendable strip above the perimeter edge surface of a golf bag;
- said mounting means comprising individual clamps spaced along the lower edge of said plastic strip to grip the bag perimeter edge surface, whereby said clamps collectively cause said strip to bend so as to conform to the golf bag edge surface;
- said plastic strip having a series of slots in said upper edge, each of said slots being adapted to support the head of a golf club, with the club shaft depending into the golf bag;
- said elongated plastic strip having an inner surface adapted to face the area above the golf bag, and an outer surface adapted to face away from the golf bag;
- and a series of fingers extending angularly away from the inner surface of said elongated strip in alignment with said slots, so that said fingers prevent the golf club heads from slipping out of said slots.
A golf club organizer adapted to be mounted on a golf bag, comprising:
- a bendable elongated flat strip adapted for disposition above the upper edge of a golf bag;
- mounting means extending from said strip for engagement with an upper edge of a golf bag so that said bendable strip can have its major plane conforming to the contour of the bag upper edge;
- a series of golf head retention pockets spaced along said elongated strip;
- said mounting means comprising plural bag-grippers spaced along said bendable elongated strip;
- each of said bag-grippers comprising inner leg means adapted to engage the inner surface of a golf bag, and an outer leg means adapted to engage the outer surface of a golf bag;
- and
- a golf club shaft support means located on the outer leg means of at least one of the bag-grippers.
A golf club organizer adapted to be mounted on a golf bag, comprising:
- a bendable elongated strip adapted for disposition above the upper edge of a golf bag;
- mounting means extending from said strip for engagement with an upper edge of a golf bag so that said bendable strip can have its major plane conforming to the contour of the bag upper edge;
- and a series of golf head retention pockets spaced along said elongated strip;
- said elongated strip having an upper edge;
- each of said pockets comprising a slot in said upper edge, and a finger extending angularly from said strip so that a terminal portion of the finger is offset from the major plane of the strip in alignment with the associated slot, each of said fingers being located inwardly from the major plane of said strip when the strip is mounted on a golf bag, whereby a golf club can be suspended within the associated golf bag, with the club head resting on an upwardly-facing edge of a slot, and the heel of the club head engaged against the offset terminal portion of the associated finger.
