I use an Anteater (mascot of UC Irvine, where I was an undergraduate) on my driver and a Bruin Bear (mascot of UCLA, where I got my Masters' and am currently working on a PhD) on my 3-Wood. My 5-wood has a stock headcover, and I'm looking for a cover that I like for it. I would love Nibbler from Futurama , but as best I can tell, it doesn't exist as a headcover.

Maybe I'll still be looking when I am a post-doc or professor, and in that case, I'll get whatever that school's mascot is on a club.

I use the stock ones on my woods and putter, particularly on the course, but want to replace the wood covers with ones that are longer to protect the shafts as well. I don't use any on my irons.

I have a Pat Perez black boxing glove on my driver , a stock Nickent on my 4 wood , and stock Hogan covers on my hybrids . Same goes for the stock cover on my mallet putter , but I'm sure I will find something to replace the putter cover eventually ... -- K.

I really don't like the zippered head covers (think of Titliest 907s for example.) The 909s have magnetic flaps and the cover extends down further to protect the shaft from banging club heads (irons.) It is still too short by an inch or so.

I like the old fashioned "long narrow sleeve -- big head" types because the shaft is very well protected.

I see some doozie headcovers, but I'm too traditional to put Daffy Duck on my driver -- but if you like that, then why not?

I use the stock for my driver and hybrids. I bought the cool clear/transparent head covers for my irons/wedges so I can see what I am grabbing out of my bag. They also help when you play multiple wedges cause the head cover sets you buy usually only have a pitch and sand, but no wedge or gap. I would love to get a cool head cover for my ft-iq but i cant seem to find anyone that makes any head covers that fit square head drivers. I might have to sew a sock onto a toaster cozy and call it day. :)

Currently stock on my woods.

I'm gaming a Ryder Cup 2008 Team USA SC cover on my SC putter. I may change it for a 2009 Masters SC cover when the time approaches.


I've been pondering some replacement wood covers sporting my college logo. A local golf shop has some in stock...just gotta work on him for a discount...not a well know college locally.

I currently only use stock covers on my woods and hybrid. I am trying to find something different that I would like to actually have on my bag. I love the look of the Jan Craig ones, and will probably pick one or two up. I am thinking of getting a BEVO head cover as I am a huge Longhorns fan.

This is somewhat off topic for this particular thread, but if someone can post a good URL for a good head covers site, that would be awesome. I am looking for some sort of animal or character.

Stock apart from my putter which has a Scotty Cameron British Open '04 headcover. I'm British and like Scottish Terriers so the design seemed perfect.

I don't like using the stock headcovers, I hate to advertise what clubs are underneith the covers. I have a Macaw headcover for my driver (because that ball's going to fly) and then I just have some generic, non-descript black covers on my 3 and 5 woods.

I have the ROSSA head cover on my putter, but I am thinking about changing that one out too.

I have played in some 'sketch' places and I love leaving with as many clubs as I arrived with.

I use stock head covers except for my putter. Thats the one cover that always seems to get lost so I replace it. Plus, if you go to resale a club, the original head cover on the putter seems to be more of an issue then for a driver or 3 wood.

Yeah, wanna make 14 dollars the hard way?

Stock. I would like some Rocket Tour headcovers but they're too expensive. I would get some Mizuno iron covers off of eBay with the Road Runner logos but I think it would be too complicated and odd-looking. I have a 2006 US Open Scotty Cameron headcover with taxis on it.

I don't go for them goofy novelty headcovers much. If I were to switch from stock, there is this company Iliac Golf that sponsors a mini-tour I play on. Good looking and high quality products. Here's a catalog: http://www.iliacgolf.com/pdf/iliac_2009_catalog_sml.pdf Check it out!

I discard the head covers except for my putter because they are a hassle to deal with and I never intend to sell my clubs so why try to avoid scratches ?

I REALLY like these products. Any idea how much the knitted headcovers are? I don't see a price in the catalog. Do you know if you are able to order for single individuals...this catalog looks as though they only do orders for business'.

Anybody else absolutely despise the Taylormade Burner headcover? It's like twice as big as the club head itself. Looks like a basketball on the end of the tubesock.

Sometimes I struggle so much just getting it over my clubhead, that I end up throwing in the bag and putting it back on when my round is finished.

Ive used the same duck (or mallard) headcover on my driver for years. I had to ditch the headcover on my cameron studio select putter because its the most obnoxious thing i have ever seen. I use the bootie headcover from my old ping anser 2 on it now.

    • God I hate when golf can’t give me n+1 day of success. Drives me up the wall when my body is, FU! Im like, ok let’s check the vid. Yep too much turn, arms getting behind me. Ok, I work on that. Get the feel back for a shorter swing. Confirm with video. Then going back to arms down stuff.  Arms down, nope it’s hands out towards the ball. Oh, you get arms down better. Guess what, you don’t get to rotate and you hit 6 inches behind the ball. Yay!  Maybe I should have walked off the range and not wasted my time. I wish there was a body alert system when it’s going to a SOB for the day. 😭 OK rant over, I’ll be back at this tomorrow.

    • I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.      
    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
