I'm a Bengals fan. I used to want a Bengal tiger headcover. Now I wouldn't want one anywhere near my clubs. I'd be afraid those losers would rub off on my golf game.

I thought Canada had a good educational system...."you "think" is gay....but still not sure right???"". I've read better English from a 'Nigerian Prince' trying to dupe me out of $2000.

do me a favour. Grab an Oreo cookie, type it into google translator....it will convert it from Russian/Ukrainian to Canadian/English

back on topic please i'm done w you ........

I got a labrador one when my Lab Phoebe passed away and now she watches over every shot... I have actually been known to line my stand bag up so she gets a good view too....

My mates gave me a bit of s*(t when they saw it but after explaining why they "got it"...

It is a PITA when putting the rain cover over the clubs but other than that no issues...

I have a Chewbacca headcover, everyone loves it, but seriously who doesn't like chewbacca? Adds character. Getting a lab head cover, not gonna lie you might get made fun of for that from your buddies for a bit.

Personally, I find they take too much room on the bag. But I must admit, I got one as a gift a couple of years after I started playing. It was a skunk (as in you stink) head cover from my brother-in-law.

I have a rhino headcover that I had on my driver since I was 5 years old when my dad started me off golfing.  Now the rhino is on my 3-wood because it can't fit on my 909 driver.  I personally like them golf is fun for me and looking at a goofy headcover helps me relax in a way.

I don't like tha animal one because they tend to take up too much room in the bag. But like other's said, it's what makes you happy.

I like them, but as many others have said they take up too much room.  I had a yellow lab head cover and returned it the same day.

      However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.

      Favorite Las Vegas Course

      I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

      Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
