ABSTRACT:
A golf bag having a chamber in its base for housing four stabilizing rods. Each of the rods has inturned teeth extending from one end for a portion of its length. A pinion is mounted in the chamber to rotate around an axis coincident with the axial center of the golf bag. The four stabilizing rods are positioned so that their toothed segments mesh with the pinion. The chamber has a sidewall with four openings, each positioned to permit passage of a separate one of the four stabilizing rods. The rods are positioned in parallel pairs, each pair being disposed at 90.degree. to the other pair. The pinion has a shaft affixed to it which extends upwardly through the center of the golf bag to an upper end fitted with a knob. The four stabilizing rods are each of the proper length to travel between one extreme position in which it extends outwardly through one of the openings to stabilize the golf bag against tipping over when the bag is standing on a horizontal surface and an opposite extreme position in which it is substantially withdrawn into the chamber. The knob on the shaft connected to the pinion is turned in one direction to simultaneously move the stabilizing rods to their bag stabilizing positions and in the other direction to cause the rods to be pulled back into their retracted positions in the chamber at the base of the golf bag.
