ABSTRACT:
An insert for placement within a golf club bag includes first and second elongate shaft members and a coupling sleeve configured to receive an end of the first shaft member and end of the second shaft therein for connecting the shaft members together in end-to-end relation. A second end of one of the shaft members is also configured for attachment of a cover disposed over the top of the golf club bag for protection of clubs carried in the bag from impacts. A pin extends through apertures in the shafts members and coupling sleeve to releasably secure the two shafts and coupling sleeve together in the coupling position. The coupling position is one of a plurality of selectable coupling positions. Each coupling position corresponds to a different length of the shaft assembly formed by the first and second shafts and coupling sleeve, the overall length of the shaft assembly being adjustable for accommodating any golf club height of a golf club carried in the bag. The cover includes ribs formed therein for rigidity and a protected area consisting only of a substantially open and non-compartmentalized annular space within which club heads of the taller clubs carried in the bag are received without regard to any particular orientation of the club heads to the ribs.
