Leave it to me to ask this kind of question, but.... does anyone know the purpose of the "pocket" on the Callaway Diablo Edge driver headcover?

I haven't seen the headcover but it might be there as more of a handle to pull the cover off the head easier.

thats what i was thinking. thats wat i have on my Cleveland cover, a pocket that you grab to easily pull the cover off.

Now I have seen various other headcovers such as the Mizuno ones that do have pockets for the little screwdriver tool thing to be in. Not sure why the Diablo Edge would have that though.

I figured it was a handle and used it as such. Those buggers can be hard to get on/off.

I have to agree now that it is indeed a handle to help remove it. After I read Quinn07's reply I looked at it a little closer again. On the inside of the "pocket", on the outer part, there is a curved "bump" running side-to-side. It makes a perfect place for the finger tips to grab onto to pull it off.

Thanks for the replies!

    • Tale of two swings.  Swing 1: Slightly outside takeaway (hands move outside of target line) only to allow trail elbow over collapsing at P4. Doesn't take much to overdo it for the trail elbow collapse to only further exaggerate. That's death. Swing 2: Hands stay slight in at takeaway for a much better trail elbow condition at P4. This is a hard sell from an instinct perspective. More focus on un-weighting and re-weighting of lead foot to unlock a bit more mobility of hips and torso. A major flaw that creeps up often is me swinging flat footed and becoming overly armsy-collapsy as a result. Got reminded of this the hard way during my 2nd round match for club net championship. Was cruising along 2up until I made the turn. Then lost the swing for next five holes. Andy was playing good enough to capitalize. By the time I regained my swing on 16th, it was too late. Even Andy was like "That was a gift". Obviously that stings because have played well enough lately. Should have closed him out of the game comfortably with a few holes to spare. Shoulda woulda coulda. Tough lesson. Damn. P.S. I know the swings look very similar but trust me there is a difference.
