What is claimed is: 1. A golf bag comprising a top face plate, said top face plate defining a plurality of apertures, a bottom face plate defining a plurality of aperatures, a plurality of tubes extending between the face plates, said tubes defining a plurality of passages leading from the aperture
What is claimed is: 1. A golf bag comprising a top face plate, said top face plate defining a plurality of apertures, a bottom face plate defining a plurality of aperatures, a plurality of tubes extending between the face plates, said tubes defining a plurality of passages leading from the apertures in the top face plate, a shaft anti-rotation means positioned in each passage near the bottom face plate, a shaft centering means positioned in each passage near the top face plate, and a cover laterally surrounding the plurality of tubes, wherein the top face plate and the bottom face plate are identical and each defines a plurality of sockets surrounding the plurality of apertures, the sockets of the top face plate facing the sockets of the bottom face plate, and wherein the tubes are fastened to the sockets of the top face plate by the shaft centering means. 2. A golf bag as in claim 1 wherein the tubes are fastened to the sockets of the bottom face plate by the shaft anti-rotation means. 3. A golf bag as in claim 1 wherein each shaft anti-rotation means comprises a single wedge-shaped slide body or a plurality of circumferentially spaced wedge-shaped slide bodies positioned in the passage near the bottom end of the passage, each slide body having a top end, a bottom end, an outer surface positioned closely adjacent to the inside surface of the tube, an inner surface which angled in the range of 1 degree to 45 degrees from a longitudinal axis of the tube and converging in a downward direction toward the longitudinal axis of the tube. 4. A golf bag as in claim 3 wherein each shaft anti-rotation means comprises a plurality of circumferentially spaced wedge-shaped slide bodies. 5. A tube bundle for a golf bag comprising a top face plate, said top face plate defining a plurality of apertures, a bottom face plate, a plurality of tubes extending between the face plates, said tubes defining a plurality of passages leading from the apertures in the top face plate, a shalt anti-rotation means positioned in each passage near the bottom face plate, and a shalt centering means positioned in each passage near the top face plate, wherein each shaft anti-rotation means comprises a plurality of circumferentially spaced wedge-shaped slide bodies positioned in the passage near the bottom end of the passage, each slide body having a top end, a bottom end, an outer surface positioned closely adjacent to the inside surface of the tube, an inner surface which angled in the range of 1degree to 45 degrees from a longitudinal axis of the tube and converging in a downward direction toward the longitudinal axis of the tube, wherein, in at least a portion of the tubes, the bottom ends of the wedge-shaped slide bodies are positioned on a spacer which is positioned on the bottom plate. 6. Apparatus comprising a tube defining a passage, said tube having a top end, a bottom end, and inside surface, and an outside surface, a shaft anti-rotation means positioned in the passage near the bottom end, and a shaft centering means positioned in the passage near the top end, wherein the shaft centering means comprises a pair of opposed resilient shaft-centering bodies, each having a handle portion and a pair of tines, the tines forming a partially annular shape and the handle portions passing through opposed apertures in the tube for mounting the shaft-centering bodies therein, wherein each resilient shaft-centering body of the pair is generally bifurcated fork-shaped, wherein each resilient shaft-centering body is positioned flap-like inside of the tube and has an arcuate surface which assume a generally concentric position around the longitudinal axis of the tube when the shaft-centering body is in a relaxed position.
