Abstract: A combination towel and cover for a golf club bag. The device is a flat, foldable material having a water repellant side and a water absorbing towel side. Fastening members of the hook and loop type are positioned along selected peripheral edges of the device to hold it in a folded configuration. When fully folded, it is attachable by a clamp to a golf club bag. When unfolded, it is attachable by snap members to the snaps built into golf club bags such that its towel side is exposed for use. When so disposed, it may be flipped over the clubs to protect them during inclement weather, but the golfer may still reach under the device to use its towel side even when it has been flipped over.

Abstract: An impermeable golf bag cover is fabricated from a flexible, transparent and impermeable material to protect the interior of the golf bag and the enclosed clubs from inclement weather when a club is being removed from the bag or replaced into the bag. The lower bottom portion of the golf bag portion is used both to secure the cover to the open top of a golf bag while the remaining portion of the lower bottom portion serves as an access portion to the interior of the golf bag and its contents. An extended tubular upper portion of the cover is integral to the lower bottom portion and has sufficient length to accept a golf club during the procedure of its removal from or replacement into the golf bag.

Abstract: A transparent protective hood (A) is disclosed for a golf bag (10) and clubs (12). The hood includes a back part (22) which terminates short of a front panel (20) and side vents (24, 26) for club removal around the entire bag.

Abstract: A flexible, waterproof, lightweight compact cover for the top of a golf bag and for golf clubs having a first end and a second end. The first end is snugly secured about the top of the golf bag with fasteners. The first end has at least one slit therein which is received by a ring on the top of the bag preventing rotation of the cover circumferentially about the top of the bag. The second end of the bag extends outwardly from the bag covering the golf clubs and the top of the golf bag. The second end of the cover is folded back and fastened to the first end of the cover. To gain access to the golf club, the second end of the cover is lifted and the golfer may reach in to remove the golf club while still preventing rain from entering the top of the golf bag. The second end of the cover may be rolled downwardly to form a collar about the top of the golf bag and, when so disposed, the cover may be unrolled rapidly to protect the top of the golf bag and golf clubs from rain and inclement weather.

Abstract: A cover for preventing water from entering a golf bag while removing clubs therefrom comprises a tubular sleeve formed of a water impervious, flexible material. The sleeve has upper and lower openings with an elastic band extending around and integral with the lower opening, and an absorbent cloth collar fastened around the upper opening. The lower opening of the tubular sleeve is larger than the diameter of the golf bag. The elastic band of the lower opening effectively draws said lower opening into relatively tight contact with the outer surface of the golf bag. The length of the sleeve is such that at least a portion of said sleeve extends a sufficient distance from the golf bag to collapse the sleeve whereby the upper opening is positioned in substantially the same direction as the lower opening. The length of the sleeve is approximately the same as the golf bag.

Abstract: A golf bag container is formed by separable upper and lower bodies. The bodies are configured to provide a union in which either (a) a short section of the open end of one of the bodies is received within the open end of the other body to provide a continuous storage space within the two bodies, or (b) a substantial portion of the closed end of the upper body is received in the open end of the lower body with the upper body inverted for storage purposes. The bodies are equipped with latches for holding them together and the union configuration has recessed regions for receiving the latches.

Abstract: Rain cover 20 encloses golf bag 11. Cover and bag are carried by shoulder strap 23 by way of upper loop 25 and lower loop 24. Lower loop 24 serves to retract legs 12 of bag 11 in the carrying position and upper loop 25 serves to connect shoulder strap 23 to connecting means 26. Connecting means 26 permits the removable attachment of cover 20 to bag 11 so that bag 11 cannot slip out of cover 20 while it is being carried.
