Abstract
A golf club caddy has a pair of standards, each of the standards having a ground supporting member projecting from a lower end. A plurality of U-shaped engagement members are fixed to opposite faces of each standard for receiving the shaft of a golf club. Spacing members are positioned between the pair of standards with a grip portion being centrally located between the ends of an uppermost spacing member for providing a comfortable grip for carrying the caddy. Releasable coupling members extend into the spacing members from each standard. Each of the coupling members includes a proximal and a distal wedge member received into the ends of the spacing members and having outer surfaces sized to engage an inner surface of the spacing members. A threaded member extends through the wedge members so that the proximal wedge is slidably arranged on the threaded member while the distal wedge member is engaged by the threaded member. A handle is connected to each threaded member so that rotation of the handle member causes displacement of the distal wedge member with respect to the spacing member for manual release of the coupling member whereby the standards and spacing members can be quickly and easily disassembled for storage as well as reassembled subsequent to storage.
