I use my Edel headcover. I've never once played somewhere I think someone would steal it. And the times I guess I think it might be a little shady, or there's a 0.5% chance someone might steal it, I keep an eye on my bag.

I take my putter home with me after a round so I can practice.  The only opportunity someone has to steal it is when my bag is in the cart before a round and I'm at the range practicing.  Most of the members in my club are quite wealthy and have more expensive putters than I do.

I use the stock headcover. No one's really looking to steal an obscure Nike putter that no one on Tour ever used and sold like crap. ;-) When I used to use a Scotty I was mildly worried, but not really any more worried than about someone making off with my entire bag. I keep my bag in my trunk instead of at a club, and I don't really leave it out of my sight. If I'm going inside to eat after a round I'll just toss it in the car.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

Call me naive but I had never given any thought to someone potentially stealing my clubs. It wasn't until a few weeks ago when I read a post on this site that I saw someone mention they didn't use the stock headcovers because they didn't want to advertise what kind of clubs they had. Now I'm worried every time I set my bag down and there are other people around.

I have a generic headcover for my cheap mallet.  Mainly because the cover they found when I bought it didn't really fit and was funny looking.  Someday I hope to get fitted for a fancy pants putter - but probably only after I start using balls that provide a better feel....  But I do put the cover on after every green to protect the face of the putter.  It's doing a decent job.

That said - most of my handicap improvement now is coming down to good putting and executing better on up and downs

putter will be the next serious purchase and I'm glad to see a lot of good input on these threads on good brands and types

If it's really expensive, I'll likely cover it with a dirty gym sock.

the one thing I don't want stolen is the laser - that's a great tool and not cheap at all

      Here's the bet. Assuming the pursuit of a Tour card holds, who wins their first Tour event? Charlie, or this Russell kid? Bet is off if Miles Russell signs with LIV.

      Strategy on Neshanic Valley Ridge #2

      By billchao ·

      It seems like too much work for me. I'm actually surprised at myself for spending as much time on this as I already have. Shot Scope tells me my shots to finish with a 7i is 0.1 better than with my 50 or 55 so I'm just going to go with it. Actually, I tend to be the complete opposite. I've never faced a shot I'm convinced I can't hit. It leads to great heroics and complete flops. Conservative for me might just be someone else's normal.

      Tell me you've not seen Bill play without telling me you've not seen Bill play? 😄 Just teasing @billchao. 😄

      And like Matt said, and I have hinted at… it's ONE ROUND. Because you have to get hot. Better players than him failed to get through. And… Peaked too soon, perhaps. He could also get injured, get surpassed, lose interest or lose his game… Again, if I trusted y'all to uphold the bet, and if the bet wasn't basically a 15-year proposition… I'd bet y'all. The odds are against him, and heavily so. So… he didn't qualify, and he's playing on a sponsor's exemption. Jordan Spieth was 16 years old when he tied for 16th in a PGA Tour event… and I realize that mentioning Jordan Spieth (who has obviously had a lot of success) seems to argue against my point, but Spieth is the exception and he did better at only a year older than this fella. The odds are strongly against him.

      He shot -5 with a bogey on the last hole. Those Monday Q events are seriously tough to get through. Lots of very very good players play in those, including normally a fair few tour players who've lost their cards, including past winners. It is a small sample size, but he also just broke one of Tiger's records (youngest ever to be ranked one in AJGA if memory serves). He's the best 15 year old in the world at the moment. He's also pretty small and skinny - if he grows and fills out a bit and gets stronger, he could be a serious force to be reckoned with. He may of course also go off the boil and struggle or his swing may not last his growth or something, so it's not like he's odds on to make it or anything like that. I think it will be interesting to see how he progresses and if (big if granted) he progresses well, then he will be quite the prospect.
