Let’s face it, most golfers have some quirks. Certain things make players comfortable or feel better about their game and in this crazy game we call golf, every little thing matters. Some have lucky ball marks that they use while others can only have certain things in their pockets at all times. Me, I have only one criteria, and that is that I cannot play with ANYTHING in my pockets. I find it distracts me and never just feels comfortable.
Each month we are lucky enough to have our readers point us in the direction of certain products that they would like more information on or things that they would like us to review. So when we had three different readers request that we review the Eiseles Golf Utility Clip, we were a little curious. I must say when I first took a look at the website, I was not so sure what to expect. But after reading a little more, I realized that this was something that this reviewer may very well certainly like. Think of this little device as a golfers little version of Batman’s Belt. It has a little bit of everything to make a player’s life a little easier out there on the course.
After taking that further look, we contacted the company and they were nice enough to send us over a couple of samples to take out for a test drive. We received a clip in both black and brown color and they come complete with just about everything you could imagine.
From the company:
The Eiseles Ultimate Golf Utility Clip was created with all golfers in mind; your concentration should be on the game and there should be no discomfort when taking a swing because your pockets are full with divots, balls etc. Let the Eiseles Clip take care of it all. It is a perfectly designed leather clip that holds your extra ball, two tees, a divot tool, ball marker, and your golf glove. It is truly the Ultimate Golf Utility Clip!
Eiseles Clip is hand crafted and designed so that golfers will not even realize they are wearing a clip on their Hip. This Leather clip bends around your hip and Does Not Interfere with your golf swing at all. That’s right, it is extremely lightweight and the Eiseles clip sits perfectly around your Hip by clipping either to your belt or your pants. Because the clip is made of leather, it will form comfortably to each individual’s Hip.
This utility clip will make your golf game complete. As a golfer, you are now finally able to have access to all the utilities while playing by using the Eiseles Ultimate Golf Utility Clip. The clip was designed to sit on the side of the right hip for both Left handed and Right handed golfers.
As you can see by the pictures, if it is something you will need on the course, the Eiseles Ultimate Golf Utility Clip has you covered. Like to have a spare golf ball on you? The clip has the spot for it. The leather clip has a spot for not only the golf ball, but also divot repair tools, spare tees, a ball marker, and a very cool little piece of velcro that will hold your glove on while you take it off to putt.
We put up some pictures in the forum when the clip first arrived and most had the same feedback, that it was too bulky and that it would get in the way while they were playing. We decided to put it to the test and see just how it felt while playing 18 holes wearing this leather belt accessory. Each day I headed to the course I strapped on the clip and took it out with me. For 4-5 rounds I played with it on my hip and I will be the first to say, that after the first swing, you do not even realize it is there. Although it is fairly large looking, the way it bends and where it sits on your body, you really forget that you are wearing it. However in the FL heat, you do get VERY WARM where the accessory is sitting on your belt.
I sent both of our samples out with our testers for 8 rounds total and all the testers had the same feelings that I had. In the Florida heat, it feels like your side is almost boiling with the added weight and heavy leather on your person. Like me, none of them had any issue with it clipped and said that if the heat was not a factor, they may like this thing quite a bit.
At THP we care a little more than most about style and I must say that I did not care for the look of this device as much as I did its functionality. I found that as much as I pride myself on my golf apparel, this little gadget seemed to set me back a little bit. So it would really come down to which side of that you prefer…Form or Function. The weight of the belt clip also did cause a few issues with keeping everybody’s shirt tucked in properly as that particular side where the leather utility clip was on seemed to sag just a bit.
Overall we found the Eiseles Ultimate Golf Utility Clip quite a good little gadget. For people that do not like to carry things in their pockets, this one could be a great little device for them. While we had a few issues with the style of the clip, we had no issues with it getting in the way. Available in Black or Brown and includes ball marker, divot tool, and 2 tees. If you do not like to have anything in your pockets during play, this just might be what you are looking for. For more information including pricing, please check out their website.

I don’t mind keeping a ball, divot tool and a couple of tees in my pocket. I won’t be trying one of these. I was surprised it didn’t bother your testers out much, other than mainly the heat part of it. It may be good for some people, but this one isn’t for me.
As Prince Hamlet might put it, is it more unsightly to have junk in your pockets or clipped to your belt — that is the question.
I’m still thinking “fanny pack”, I just can’t see me wearing one.
This looks like golf’s version of a nerd’s pocket protector. I don’t see this one catching on.
Nunan took the word’s right out of my mouth, a pocket protector for the golfing nerd.
It really doesnt look any bigger than the size of a cell phone holder you see people wearing on their belts. That being said, I still dont think its for me. Maybe a breathable mesh one would be better for the heat.
See people wearing cells phone on their hip, no one has issues with this. I agree with Gasman on this comparison. I will give it a try. I do not like anything in my pockets. reveiw was pretty good.
I have one and I could not agree more with the review. Was not sure if I would like it, I thought it would interfere with my swing. you do not realize you are wearing it at all. I no longer carry anything in my pockets. It does the job for me.
I got one of these from a recent golf outing that I was at gave it a try. It was actually very handy to have everything right there on my hip and it didn’t interfere with my swing at all. I used to put everything in my pocket and hated when the golf tees would get stuck in the corner of my pocket or the ball marker would fall out when I pulled out a new ball. Does it look “nerdy” on my hip? It is small (about the size of my iPhone) so it doesn’t really stand out.
My wife loves it especially since none of her golfing skirts have pockets so she is dying to get one in white or pink!
When my daughter gave me this as a gift for my birthday, I thought here we go a useless gift but nice thought.
When I tried it months after I received it, I really did like it. The first few holes I forgot I had it on my belt and still put my tee and ball in my pocket. After remembering I had it on my belt I started utilizing the piece and from then on my pockets are not cluttered with golf junk.
Very nice piece.
Really surprised by the testers review. Was not sure what to expectl! I have a set ritual, not willing to change it at all, been doing it for 35 years now! Not something I would wear but then again I do not have a clip for my cell phone either, I shove it in my pocket. Maybe this is for the younger generation.
Do people not have pockets anymore?
Like this better than the G clip!
I use this also, great golf gadget for ladies. Our pockets can’t hold anything! Sits comfortably on my hip, do not feel it at all!
The Eiseles Utility Clip is awesome!!!!!
There have been times where I hit the ball out of bounds or broke a tee during the previous drive. Not having to take that “walk of shame” to the Golf Cart for another ball or tee is a good feeling and save time.
Also, not having the clutter in my pockets nor having to search for tee or ball mark makes me look organized.
This is such a simple concept and one that you say: Wow!!! Why didn’t I think of it!!!!
Really nice Leather piece, put together very well!
As one of the testers that actually got to try this out, I want to say that it was definitely not something I would ever use. The review is spot on about the fact that it does not get in the way, but you do get really hot. One more thing I want to add is the fact that I do not care what anybody says, you like ridiculous wearing one.
There seems to be a lot of positive comments on here about this one, and call me suspicious.
Read some postive and negative feedback on this item, interesting reveiw! Would not buy it for me personally but I guess there are people who may.
Bought this for myself and my boyfriend. It is something I have been using alot lately, able to carry my utilities. My boyfriend does not like to wear anything or even carry stuff in his pockets, so he is not using it! Worked for me, not for Him!
Received my clip at our annual golf outing, I was really surprised by the way it looked, very nice piece of leather. I normally do not wear anything while I play. But since it was our outing I tried it on, I did not notice it at all. Very surprised that I ended up liking it.
I don’t believe this is for me. I thought it would interfere with swing, surprised it does not.
Played with this clip for the time this weekend at Myrtle beach! It was awesome!
I have an ogio grom so i wont need one of these.
Bought mine at NJ Golf Show, been using it ever since!
I used this clip, got it as a gift. I am so used to it now. Can’t imagine playing with out it!
Looks interesting Good reviews I don’t think it for me though
Came across this product at PGA Show, tried it on was really surprised on how I did not realize I was wearing it. Took a sample to play around with it while at show. Have to say that I really liked it alot. Ended buying two to bring home. Two Thumbs Up!!
