Abstract: A golf bag that redistributes a large percentage of the bag's weight from a user's shoulders to their hips features a unique one-piece hip and lumbar support belt. The hip and lumbar support belt attaches to the golf bag in a variety of positions. The golf bag includes a base plate attached to the bag frame, the base plate having a series of spaced-apart receptacles designed to accommodate fasteners disposed on the lumbar support belt. By aligning the lumbar support belt and golf bag in a position to maximize comfort, and wearing the lumbar support belt, weight from the golf bag is transferred from the shoulders to the hips, improving posture, and easily adjustable to a variety of positions.
