ABSTRACT:
A sports equipment carrier for carrying golf clubs and the like having a tubular substantially rigid body comprised of a sidewall that is ribbed or honeycombed along its longitudinal length for producing a high strength-to-weight sports equipment carrier body capable of being used as a golf bag and which is convertible to a shipping container when a removable substantially rigid lid is attached. In one embodiment, the carrier has a plurality of pairs of axially spaced apart radially extending transverse and annular ribs distributed along the longitudinal length of the body. In another embodiment, the ribbed sidewall comprises a single spiraling rib. In a still further embodiment, the sidewall is comprised of radially extending honeycomb cells forming a honeycombed portion that extends about a periphery of the carrier body and which is distributed the entire length of the sidewall. The ribs or honeycombs can be integral with the sidewall with the sidewall and ribs or honeycombs constructed of high density polyethylene, a polyolefin, plastic material. The exterior of the carrier body can be covered with fabric that can be colored to provide an aesthetically pleasing exterior that also protects the carrier body. The carrier can also have storage pouches, a carrying strap, and wheels, all of which are removable to facilitate conversion of the carrier to a shipping container.
