Claim:
1. A retractable golf bag wheel assembly comprising: a golf bag; a lip coupled to and extending downwardly from a bottom face of said golf bag defining a recess into a bottom end of said golf bag; a pair of arms, each of said arms having a proximal end relative to said bottom face of said golf bag, each said proximal end being pivotally coupled to said golf bag within said recess, each of said arms being adjustable between a storage position within said recess and an extended position wherein distal ends of said arms relative to said bottom face of said golf bag extend outwardly from said recess, each of said arms having a medial pivot wherein each of said arms is collapsible to fit within said recess when in said storage position; a pair of wheels, each of said wheels being coupled to said distal end of an associated one of said arms relative to said bottom face of said golf bag; a catch extending from said lip and engaging said arms when said arms are in said storage position wherein said catch retains said arms within said recess; a catch release having a first end positioned proximate to a top of said golf bag, said catch release having a second end operationally coupled to said catch such that manipulation of said first end of said catch release disengages said catch from said arms wherein said arms extend into said extended position; a pair of collars, each collar being slidably positioned on an associated one of said arms; and a pair of stops, each stop being positioned on an associated one of said arms proximate to said medial pivot, each stop supporting an associated one of said collars in a position on said associated one of said arms such that said associated collar inhibits movement of said associated medial pivot.
