It is Just a Matter of Time before We See Rory or Anthony Kim Wearing the “All-In-One Golf Belt” on Tour

Ahh, a patent application directed to incorporating Velcro or magnets into a belt to secure your golf glove, ball marker, repair tool, or ball pouch. I wonder if this application will ever grow into a patent. Regardless, it is entertaining.

Check out these drawings.


What the heck is that attached to the right side of the belt above? It looks like either the foot of a chicken or the smallest golf glove I have ever seen!





The drawings come from an application that recently published as US Pub. No. 20090070919 titled “All-In-One Golf Belt.” The patent application explains:

[0001] The present invention relates to an all-in-one golf belt. More particularly, this invention relates to a belt, to which small items can be attached and thus well organized around a person, and which can be worn and used by a golfer.

[0002] Golf is a popular sport. A person enjoying a sport usually needs a lot of tools or devices. Some of the tools or devices are indispensable things such as balls in a ball game, and others just for facilitating the play and fun, and sometimes for good maintenance of the tools or environments. Especially in gold, a golfer needs many helping tools, some of which are small items. A regular golfer, for instance, carries a ball marker, ball mark repair tool, tees, extra golf balls, and many others. People say that golf is a tricky game and the play can be affected from almost everything around the ball. Carrying the small items around the games and being tidy can be quite challenging.

[0003] Accordingly, a need for a golf belt for organizing small tools and devices for sports has been present for a long time considering the endless demands from the various sports. This invention is directed to solve these problems and satisfy the long-felt need.

Has this inventor never ruined an expensive golf shirt by accidentally rubbing it with the Velcro of a golf glove? Confirmation that golfers are nuts (myself included)!
