I hope I'm not repeating a thread I've missed, but has anyone experience with Jan Craig headcovers? I have an opportunity to receive three, one for each of my fairway woods. I like the retro look of the covers. Any opinions about them?

shortgame85,

They're great, expensive, but the quality is very high. What you get is completely up to you in terms of color and design. They're very durable and to clean them, once a season simply include them with the next batch of clothes you take to the dry cleaner. Highly reccomended.

Thank you both for your reply. They are expensive. I probably would not be spending my money on them but, as they are gifts, well, I think I will enjoy them. I do have nice manufacturer's covers on my fairway woods but, I do like the retro look of them. They were also used by several of our Ryder Cup players. I thought they looked cool, like all white golf shoes ( not that I would opt for the white belt, mind you ---- just not darring enough for that in this lifetime ).

I think that's the great thing about them, you can make them look as outrageous or tame as you want since you control the colors. The eight inch pom is a little much for me, I opted for the smaller five inch for my two clubs and I've got no regrets at all.

Black sleeve with black and gold tassels, I think mine look mighty sharp.

I've had them for years and years. Love 'em. Last a long time with any care. New yarns in the last few years have kept them from stretching out. Right now I have two sets... the smaller poms and the tassels. I seem to get the most comments on the tassels... they're really, really retro (sorry Slider). Very nice people to deal with... but they take a good long time to get. Get 'em and enjoy them!

Gas_Can: Your headcovers must look great. I ordered Forest Green with Yellow Stripes ( 3 for the 3 wood, 5 for the 5 wood, none for the 7 wood ), each with a 5" pom that has forest green, yellow and navy flecks. I hope they look as good as yours sound. An interesting side note: the lady from whom I ordered them told me the covers are handmade by mostly elderly women of Polish descent, many of whom live in and around the Chicago area. Jan Craig is no longer alive, and the company is owned by her son and daughter-in-law. The lady with whom I spoke couldn't have been more accomodating

      What Are You Listening To?

      By guitarget ·

      I am listening to 23rd Street.  24 hours a day of cars, trucks, planes, sirens, and neighbors who start lawn mowers at 6:30am. I try to drown it out with 7,600 WAVE music files on a huge USB drive.  Mostly 1950's through 1990's music.

      Thanks! Evolvr, for sure. My indoors setup is pretty close to ready. I want to add a few more lights as it's a pretty dark place to begin with (old barn). Plan to use my iPhone 14 Pro, 720p 240 FPS. I think I got a tripod somewhere, but I nail everything down so I'll make a small box I can just plop the phone into. That way I know it's always in the same spot and level. How does the setup look in terms of angles and stuff.  I saw that topic and bookmarked it for later. A technique where you want the head to move forward and down? I've been doing that for twenty years! (not on purpose) 😛 Looks fun, I'll certainly try it out. £7000. That's certainly "down the line". What would be a good price? Thanks. I'll probably hold off until at least winter comes and see where we're living at that point. For the next six months I'll combine indoor practice with the range, which helps.
