My bought my iron used so I don't use head covers, however if I bought a new set or forged irons I definitely buy a set and used them.

I have a putter cover for my Scotty Cameron Newport 2.

Haha... i probably wouldn't have caddied for you if you didn't let me take em' off the whole time! Diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks I suppose.

In the Bag (right now)...

Cleveland Tour Issue 310UL* - Miyazaki Kusala Blue 83X

Taylormade R9 TP Tour Issue 13* - Diamana Blue 63X

Taylormade TP Hybrid 17* - Matrix Altus 80X

Nike Forged Blades - 4-W - ProjectX 6.5

Nike VR Black V-Rev 52*, 58*

Scotty Cameron California Hollywood

Taylormade Penta TP3 ball


I have them, and use them sparingly. I don't like the way they look, and they're kind of a pain to take on and off on a lot of shots. I keep one on my sand wedge, because it's the middle of the three Vokeys in the bag, and I don't want them dinged up too much!

I use them. $5 at Walmart. Neoprene. Take it off and put it in my left hand front pocket, hit my shot, then back on. Not even as hard to use as a headcover on a wood. Its like second nature now. My driver, 3w, hybrid, and putter all have covers - why not my irons. Oh, none on the vokeys - 'the trusty rusties' I call them.

In the Titleist bag on the ClicGear 2.0:

PILOT: Titleist 910 D2 Axivore Tour Red

WEDGES: Vokey TVD 54* SM5 58*K

PUTTER: Rife 2-Bar Blade

BALL: Penta 5


Never. I can see using them for when you travel with ur clubs but i just wrap newspaper around each iron instead of buying a set of iron covers.

But i would never think of using them on the course, they just look tacky. I also like ppl to admire my beautiful set of irons. i dont want them covered by an ugly set of black headcovers!
In My SasQuatch tour Golf Bag:

Don't use them unless I'm transporting them, then I'll wrap the heads in a larger towel so as to keep them all separated.

I threw my clubs into the lake so it's time to start over...

i have them on all my irons exept my vokey cause theres nothing it can touch....lol i have the old school black and white striped with the little ball on top.....theyre not a pain to take on and off....makes me feel better cause when im driving the golf cart that banging and clanging isent my clubs

In My: Black Titleist sc75 Bag

My irons are 20+ years old...Ping Eye 2's handed down from my grandfather. If they're in this good of shape after 20+ years w/o head covers, I don't really see the need to start using them now.

If I buy a new pair of irons, maybe then, but not right now.

I was using them when I got my new irons this spring, then I stopped when I found out it wasn't cool to use the covers. I've never cared too much what people think and my irons are showing marks from banging together. I usually walk and they don't really do much banging then, when I ride or in my car I will keep the covers on them.

If my irons were brand new forged irons without a question I would buy iron covers. I bought my irons used so I don't worry about the small ding while walking.

If I were traveling, I would use towels and rubber bands to secure a couple of clubs together in the travel bags.

iron covers are okay for traveling. i've changed my mind after realizing nobody uses them in real life that can actually play.

People that use iron covers are sad.
Probably bathe with them after every round.

I don't think I would use them if it were the hard plastic type. I have some soft type and they are very easy to stick in your pocket until after the shot and then put them back on. They are made out of a sponge type material and don't bother me in my pocket at all during my shot.
