  • As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the barrel 10 includes an outer member 20 and an inner member 30. The inner member 30 is received in the outer member 20 and connected to the outer member 20 at a bottom thereof. The outer member 20 is a barrel-like member with an annular sidewall and a bottom. A skin layer (not shown) is provided on an outer side of the sidewall of the outer member 20.
  • The inner member 20 includes a head frame 32, a base 34, and a plurality of bars 36. Opposite ends of the bars 36 are connected to the head frame 32 and the base 34. The base is fixed to the outer member 20.
  • A channel 50 is formed between the outer member 20 and the inner member 30 as shown in FIG. 3.
  • The golf club bag further includes an elevating device 40 connected to the inner member 30 and the cover 14. The cover 14 is provided with a cover ring 142 on an inner side of a cover member 144 of the cover 14. The cover ring 142 is adjacent to an opening of the cover 14. The elevating device 40 has a pair of telescoping members 42, each of which has three tubes slidably connected to each other in series. The telescoping members 42 have opposite ends connected to the cover 14 and the base 34 of the inner member 30 respectively.
  • As a result, the cover 14 is able to be moved up and down, and the cover member 144 and the cover ring 142 are moved in the channel 50 when the cover 14 is moved.
  • The present invention further includes channel ring 60 received in the channel 50 and connected to the outer member 20. The channel ring 60 is adjacent to an opening of the barrel 10 to strengthen the shape of the barrel 10 and the shape of the channel 50.
