Abstract: A dual strap arrangement for golf bags includes a first shoulder strap (20) having an upper end (24) attached to a generally tubular body (11) of a golf bag (10) at a first location (26) proximate a top end (12) of the body (11) and a lower end (28) attached to the tubular body (11) at a second location (30) generally intermediate the body top end (12) and a bottom end (14) of the body (11). The first location (26) is on one side of a spinal axis (15) that extends longitudinally between the body top and bottom ends (12, 14), and the second location (30) is on the other side of the spinal axis (15) so that a straight line (27) extending between the first and second locations (26, 30) traverses the spinal axis (15). A second shoulder strap (22) has upper and lower ends (32, 34) attached to the body (11) at third and fourth locations (36, 38), respectively.
