Abstract

Described herein is a golf bag with a deployable stand assembly and anti-tangle features that prevent clubs from tangling within the golf bag, and in particular, prevent golf club grips from crossing over and other and making it difficult to pull out a particular club. Because multiple golf clubs are often placed together in a single golf bag, the golf clubs can get in each other's way. Golf clubs can tangle if their shafts or grips crisscross within the bag. Club tangle is typically caused by movement of the club grips, while the clubs are stored in the bag. When clubs are tangled, it becomes hard to remove a single golf club without either facing resistance or pulling a second club out. Golf clubs are typically placed head-up in a golf bag, resulting in the golf club grips sitting in the base of the bag. During a golf round, fabric portions of the bag can crumple, especially near the base, restricting the available area for the golf clubs. The area restriction can shift the grips and aggravate entanglement. The golf bag described herein comprises features that alleviate club tangle by preserving grip and shaft positions during bag use.
