Abstract
An improved leg-deployment system for a golf bag that helps prevent leg droop when the legs are in the retracted state. In an aspect, the technology relates to a golf bag that includes a bag body; a base coupled to the bag body; a top cuff coupled to the bag body; and a leg-deployment system coupled to the top cuff. The leg-deployment system may include a leg receptacle protruding away from an exterior surface of the top cuff; a spring insert inserted into the receptacle, the spring insert including a cantilevered spring segment having a fixed end and a free end; and a leg assembly including a cam nose, wherein the cam nose contacts the cantilevered spring segment when the leg assembly is in a retracted state, and the cantilevered spring segment applies a force to the cam nose to maintain the leg assembly in the retracted state.
