Abstract: A golf bag stand including legs swingably outward from a bag mounted bracket. An actuator for the legs is of U-shape having arm upper ends adjustably attached to leg carried plates. The plates define upper and lower sockets enabling positioning of the actuator to an inactive, raised position where the lower end of the actuator is above the leg lower end and out of ground contact. Positioning of the actuator arm ends downwardly in the leg mounted plates positions the actuator lower end for contact with the ground for automatic leg deployment. upon lifting of the bag out of ground contact, the spring arms of the actuator close the legs toward one another to cause the stand legs to converge to a retracted position.
