ABSTRACT:
A rigid, flexible weight support clip for over-the-back mounted packs, bags, and other articles. In one embodiment, the clip is located within the interior of a back pack and includes arms adapted to protrude through apertures defined in the pack and extend through respective exterior sleeves. The clip may be made of a shape memory alloy or bent in a manner which allows the arms to flex either towards or away from each other and to exert a compressive force against the waist, hips and/or back of the user. In another embodiment, the clip is adapted to be suspended from the handle of a golf club adapted to be carried in a generally horizontal orientation and the clip is pivotable about the handle into engagement with the waist and/or hips of the user. In another embodiment, the clip is adapted to extend from and pivot about the front face of a golf bag adapted to be carried in a generally vertical orientation.
