Abstract
A device to monitor golf club location includes a marker mechanism, positionable on a golf club that imparts a unique identification to the club. The device also includes sensing mechanisms for sensing removal and return of the golf club into or out of a bag by sensing a change with respect to the marker. The device also includes a readout mechanism that receives a signal from the sensing mechanisms and transmits the status to the golfer.
