Don't get me wrong, the 910 headcovers are nice, and I liked mine when I had the 910 D2, but I'm not sure you can say the nicest and classiest by far... I have the RBZ right now and think that headcover is just as nice and I liked the headcover for my R9 as well. Really I kind of like any head cover that is the traditional "sock" type or whatever you wan't to call it, not really a fan of magnetic/zipper closures.

I hate advertising on my covers or anything for that matter. Currently I have a bear and a skunk covering the driver and the 3 wood respectfully.

I have had the nickname Bear (or versions of) since I was 12 or so and I always have at least one bear on the clubs. The skunk was from the kids. I think it is a statement of some sort :)

I can only spend on green fees and good equipment, most often 2nd hand stuff without head covers.  So when i need a head cover i go off to the thrift shop and search out some tall colorful stockings, and often soccer socks are the best.  Yeah, i know it's weird, cheap and only partly effective. I just don't need 'full protection' for my head so the socks do me fine. The advantages are simply that my pull trolley is immediately identifiable because of the bright blue cover on the driver and the bright yellow covers on the 2 hybrids, the ease of removal for faster play and lack of possessiveness towards these marginal items.

Not original but I do like the Cobra head covers. I usually take all my head covers off and leave them in the car when I play. I'm afraid I'll forget it in the golf cart or leave it on the course someplace. I have looked in Golfsmith, Dicks and on-line and have not found one I would use.

I've checked all of these above mentioned covers out and they are all pretty nice if you ask me. I am looking to add some color and character to my bag this winter and was just wondering what everyone else prefers. I have the Cleveland Classic head cover which is pretty classy as far as having a retro leather look to it but also a Mickey Mouse head cover that is bright and colorful. My son loves Mickey Mouse so figured it wouldn't hurt to throw that on the clubs for a few rounds.

Daphne's makes some nice animal-themed headcovers.  Ive got a dragon on my driver.  In Japanese mythology, dragons were believed to scare away bad spirits and I could sure you the bad spirits scared out of my golf game.

Beyond that, theres some really cool headcovers from Japan.  A lot of them are anime/manga characters, as well as some Snoopy and Hello Kitty.  Its all really expensive though.  Theyre cool and all but I have a hard time pay $75-$100 for a headcover.

Whats in my :sunmountain: C-130 cart bag?

IMO....the best covers are personalized.  The first thing I do when I buy a new club is remove the cover that came with it..LOL

I will have to check them out. I don't know about forking out that much for a cover but I suppose it all just depends.

My favorite kind of headcovers are the "Stealth" brand that you can buy at Golf Galaxy and other places. Made of a highly durable, stretchable, rubber type fabric. Easy to place on your club and easy to remove. Knit headcovers tend to stretch out and develop holes over time - the "Stealth" ones do not.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
