GOLF BAGS, GOLF BAG TOPS AND METHODS TO MANUFACTURE GOLF BAGS AND GOLF BAG TOPS
Exemplary embodiments of golf bags, golf bag tops, and methods to manufacture golf bags and golf bag tops are generally described herein. In one example, a golf bag top may include a club divider portion and a handle portion. A club fastener portion may extend from the handle portion and may receive a golf club shaft. A magnetic portion in the club fastener portion may magnetically attract the shaft. A magnet cover portion may be coupled to the club fastener portion and may include a flap portion entirely or partially covering the magnetic portion that would otherwise directly contact the shaft. The flap portion may provide physical separation between the magnetic portion and the shaft without prohibiting magnetic attraction therebetween. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

SMART GOLF BAG SYSTEM
Provided is a smart golf bag system. The system includes a computing device coupled to a bag and a server coupled to the computing device. The system may include a sensor system coupled to the bag, wherein the sensor system communicates with the computing device. The system tracks golfer data, such as distance hit with each club used in a round of golf, the weather, time of day and the like. The data is stored and aggregated in the server and may be analyzed to suggest clubs based on the distance to the hole, etc.

GOLF BAG WITH FOLD OUT CRUSH ZONE
Described herein is a golf bag with a deployable stand assembly and anti-tangle features that prevent clubs from tangling within the golf bag, and in particular, prevent golf club grips from crossing over and other and making it difficult to pull out a particular club. Because multiple golf clubs are often placed together in a single golf bag, the golf clubs can get in each other's way. Golf clubs can tangle if their shafts or grips crisscross within the bag. Club tangle is typically caused by movement of the club grips, while the clubs are stored in the bag. When clubs are tangled, it becomes hard to remove a single golf club without either facing resistance or pulling a second club out. Golf clubs are typically placed head-up in a golf bag, resulting in the golf club grips sitting in the base of the bag. During a golf round, fabric portions of the bag can crumple, especially near the base, restricting the available area for the golf clubs. The area restriction can shift the grips and aggravate entanglement. The golf bag described herein comprises features that alleviate club tangle by preserving grip and shaft positions during bag use.

CONVERTIBLE GOLF BAGS AND RELATED METHODS
Convertible golf bag and related methods are provided herein. A convertible golf bag can include a chassis configured to receive and hold golf clubs therein and a saddle bag configured to receive and store items therein. The golf bag can also include one or more first chassis fasteners disposed on the chassis and one or more saddle bag fasteners disposed on the saddle bag. The one or more first saddle bag fasteners are arranged for selective engagement with the one or more first chassis fasteners, thereby enabling coupling and decoupling of the saddle bag and the chassis.

GOLF BAGS, GOLF BAG TOPS AND METHODS TO MANUFACTURE GOLF BAGS AND GOLF BAG TOPS
Exemplary embodiments of golf bags, golf bag tops, and methods to manufacture golf bags and golf bag tops are generally described herein. In one example, a golf bag may include a body portion having a top portion, a bottom portion, and a chamber portion extending between the top portion and bottom portion. The chamber portion may be configured to receive a plurality of golf clubs. The golf bag may be configured to externally display a single golf club outside of the chamber portion. The single golf club may be prominently displayed and readily accessible. To secure the single golf club outside of the chamber portion, the golf bag may include a club fastener portion configured to receive a shaft portion of the single golf club and an external pocket configured to receive a grip portion of the single golf club. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
