ABSTRACT:
A golf club handgrip elevation device is provided which maintains the handgrip of the golf club off of the ground when the club is placed on the ground. The invention includes an opening in a receiving section into which the club is placed and includes a gripping section for holding golf club end. The gripping section may include brushes, flexible ribs, or fingers. A contact section is provided to contact the ground after the handgrip has been placed into the receiving section. The contact section is wide enough, such that it does not damage the surface of the golf course. A grip section or grip ring is provided adjacent the contact section which does not touch the ground and allows the golfer to pick up the golf club and remove the device without touching the ground or the contact section. Thus, there is no transfer of moisture from the ground to the golfer's hand.
