PING Awarded Interesting Golf Bag Related Design Patents

Well, yesterday two interesting design patents issued that are related to golf bags… more specifically, the patents are directed those hard plastic dividers at the top of carry bags that keep your sticks nicely separated and organized.
Karsten Manufacturing (aka PING) was granted USPN D557501 and USPN D557502, both titled “Golf Bag Divider Top.” The following figures come from the patents:
Great illustration of smart design patent utilization!
