ABSTRACT:
A collapsible sand rake assembly may be stored within the shaft of a golf club and selectively extended from an upper end of the club for use. The sand rake assembly includes a post which has a limited range of sliding movement with respect to the golf club, a rake back which is pivotally connected to the post, and a plurality of tines which are pivotally connected to the rake back. The rake back may be pivoted to extend perpendicualr to the post, and likewise the tines may be pivoted to extend perpendicular to the rake back, to configure the golf club for use as a sand rake by the golfer. The tines and the rake back may then be retracted to lie substantially parallel and adjacent to the post, for insertion within the shaft. The sand rake assembly is held within the golf club shaft in a manner which minimizes contact between the assembly and the shaft, to permit normal use of the golf club.
