Abstract
A golf club protector for protecting the shaft of a golf club including a golf club housing tube having a protective interior and a protective collar provided at the upper end of the tube. Alternatively, an optional protective sleeve insertable within the tube having a protective collar attached thereto may be removably provided as a unit for a conventional tube. Where the housing tube includes a fixed collar and protective interior, the length of the tube may be predetermined in accordance with the length of a particular club shaft, or the tube may be provided with spaced apart cut markings at its lower end to facilitate shortening of the tube by the consumer.
