Golf club rain cover for golf carts
The golf club cover is an apparatus that acts as a rain cover for protecting golf clubs in golf bags, placed in the rear section of a golf cart. To accomplish this, the apparatus includes a transparent sheet that is held securely between two PVC rod structures, such that the transparent sheet does not hinder the rear view of the driver. The rod structures have bungee cords with fastening elements at the end of the bungee cords, such that the apparatus may be attached on the golf cart roof and body, without having to have any additional fastening features on the golf cart. Further, the apparatus may be rolled up and compactly stored within the golf bag in a sleeve. Furthermore, the arrangement of the bungee cords at the lower end enables a user to retrieve contents from one golf bag without exposing the other bag to the elements.
