Claims18
A golfer's organizer for storing a plurality of golfing accessories comprising:
- a substantially-planar housing having a front surface, a rear surface, a pair of side edges, a top end and a bottom end, wherein said housing is constructed with a semi-rigid plastic inner frame that forms a moisture-impermeable barrier, said frame encapsulated with a layer of comfort-enhancing material;
- a golf ball holder at the lower end of the housing for storing a plurality of golf balls, wherein said golf ball holder is barrel-shaped and includes an opening at each of two opposing sides thereof that are in communication with an interior chamber allowing a golfer to easily slide golf balls into and out of the holder from either of said sides, said layer of comfort-enhancing material extending slightly into the interior chamber to form a retainer for balls received within said chamber to prevent inadvertent displacement if said housing is moved, said plastic inner frame being slightly flexible to allow a golfer to easily remove a ball by applying pressure thereto;
- and an abacus-type stroke counter positioned on the front surface of said housing for assisting a golfer with monitoring strokes.
