A golf bag for golf clubs is divided longitudinally up its front and the edge is stiffened by edge members (18, 20). Golf club retaining tubes (6) or flaps (76) are arranged serially around the periphery of the sidewall of the bag. A lever (26, 100) operates to open the front of the bag and to present the club heads in an organized serial manner, which assists finding the selected club. The handle also extends a pair of legs (40, 42), which form a stand for the bag.

A golf bag for carrying golf clubs, each golf club comprising a handle and a head, which bag comprises: a generally tubular bag member having a base and a sidewall extending therefrom, the sidewall being divided longitudinally along a front thereof, so as to provide a pair of opposed sidewall edges, a respective edge member being provided along each sidewall edge, each edge member being substantially rigid and having a respective upper end and lower end, each of said edge members being pivotally mounted at its lower end to the base at respective first and second spaced mounting points for pivoting movement relative to one another for moving apart the upper ends of the edge members and opening the bag member from a closed position to an open position; a series of individual golf club retaining means arranged in locations around the inner circumference of the sidewall, each said individual golf club retaining means being adapted to receive a single golf club, such that opening the bag member to the open position presents the clubs in a serial manner; said series of individual golf club retaining means comprising a central series of golf club retaining means which are disposed in a generally curved arrangement around the inner circumference of the sidewall, and first and second outer series of golf club retaining means arranged on respective opposite sides of said central series of golf club retaining means and extending up to a respective rigid edge member, said first and second outer series of golf club retaining means being free to open outwardly when the bag is opened; wherein, in said closed position of the bag, the spacing between respective opposite golf club retaining means of said first and second outer series decreases progressively at the upper end of the bag member from a greater spacing between opposite golf club retaining means disposed adjacent said central series to a lesser spacing between opposite golf club retaining means disposed immediately adjacent said rigid edge members, whereby said first and second series converge in a direction towards said front of the sidewall; wherein, in said open position of the bag, the spacing between respective opposite golf club retaining means of said first and second outer series increases progressively at the upper end of the bag member from a lesser spacing between opposite golf club retaining means disposed adjacent said central series to a greater spacing between opposite golf club retaining means disposed immediately adjacent said rigid edge members, whereby said first and second series diverge in a direction towards said front of the sidewall; the arrangement being such that when the bag member is in said open position and is inclined in a direction away from said sidewall front, heads of all golf clubs located in said golf club retaining means lie in a generally parallel disposition in relation to each other.
