ABSTRACT:
A shock absorbing shoulder strap for use in carrying bags and other items over one's shoulder which is particularly suitable for use on golf bags to absorb the shock of the rising and falling of the bag and its contents on the carrier's shoulder to prevent fatigue. The shoulder strap includes an inelastic body portion adapted to rest on the carrier's shoulder, a first adjustable elastic strap secured to one end of the body portion, a second adjustable elastic strap secured to the other end of the body portion, and releasable snap buckles carried by the elastic straps for securing the shoulder strap to the bag. As the bag and its contents rise and fall on the carrier's shoulder, the elastic straps contract and expand, absorbing a significant portion of the resulting shock which would otherwise be transmitted directly to the carrier's shoulder. By adjusting the effective length of the elastic straps through buckles carried thereby, the elasticity and length of the shoulder strap can independently varied.
