  • Patent number: 5474191
    Abstract: An aluminum tube has a rubber grip on one end and a golf club support made of thermoplastic ABS material at the other end. The support has an annular array of cup shaped receptacles for receiving the grip end of a golf club, one of the receptacles being larger than the others to receive a putter. The support has a depending central member with a through bore having an internal shoulder against which the tube abuts. The bore has a threaded end for receiving a spike for insertion into earth during a golf game. The support has a second threaded hole for securing the spike when not in use. A counterweight, i.e., a bolt with a head, is wedged within the tube and support with the bolt head abutting the shoulder to balance the caddy. A handle is secured to the tube at the approximate center of gravity of the caddy when the clubs are attached for carrying the caddy in a balanced mode horizontally. An array of ball clips are attached to the tube axially aligned with the handle for securing golf balls to the tube.
