I use club covers. Not so much for the protection of the clubheads, but more as antitheft. I have removed all of my branded head covers, and replaced with less expensive branded covers, or no brand at all. Ram Driver head cover for driver, and plain black neoprene for irons. I don't leave my clubs often, but I believe a theif won't risk it if they believe the clubs aren't worth much.

In the bag:
Driver: Rapture V2, 9 degree, stiff shaft
Fairway Woods: X-Hot 3 wood
Hybrid: 3H
Irons: J36 PC 4-PW Project X 6.0 Shafts, FlightedWedges: CG14, 50 54 and 58 degree Putter: Guerin Rife 2 Bar with Winn grip B330S Pro V1x

Ive got covers for my driver and 3 wood, it would be just a pain taking covers off all my irons every time i used them, esp my pw which i use the most often of any club probably except putter as I dont hit many gir's and use the pw to chip with and for basically any shot inside of 100 yards. If eovers had been included, i might have used them but wouldnt pay extra for covers.

Not making a judgement, just an observation. I have never seen a good player use iron covers.

Happy, I don't know Ben, but based on his handicap, and his posts on this forum, he would be considered a good player that has used iron covers. No idea if he still uses them, but the quote below is from page 1 of this thread.

I starting using them after I got my forged Mizunos to the right amount of "banged-upness" as I like to call it. They don't look too new, but from now on they won't get any worse. I use the Club Glove ones that feel like a wetsuit.

He may not drive one in his personal life, but during the PGA Championship, they showed Tiger and Steve Williams drive up to Tiger's parking spot in a Buick. And Tiger was in the driver's seat.

    • Did the 'club' conform to the Equipment Rules?
    • I was there just for sunday, and it went smoothly. Thanks @Hardspoon for helping in setting this up. 
    • I say this in believing the guy should just pay you and he's a d**k for not.  Do you guys play by the USGA rules strictly? If so, then the claim is valid. It sucks, but it is. Again, he is a d**k for being that nitpicky over it. If he wants to play the game of waiting for you to finish to have his ah-ha moment, again he's a d**k. Though, if the putter is non-conforming, you maybe able to claim that it is not a club?  Just talk to your group and don't invite him back.     
    • Couple of added points.  It was pink and maybe 18 long.  I am 6 1   And he waited until the round was over to say something when he was in my 4 some in the other cart. 
    • I would have paid you. I think it's a reasonable assumption that the extra putter was not in play.  Having said that "Did you declare the extra putter out of play?"  This person seems like a bit of a weenie and he is also setting a dangerous precedent. Let's say he wins next month. Then when it's your turn to pay up, you could refuse. Telling him "I timed you on hole 8 and you searched for your ball and found it at 3 minutes and 1 second. So, you should have taken stroke, plus distance and didn't." You could then show him your stopwatch feature on your phone where you timed it out to 3:01 and say "See."  I actually would just let it go and assume the guy is a weenie. Because doing stuff like that takes the fun out of friendly bets. If he can't afford to pay up, he shouldn't bet.
