re: the advertising aspect....I don't think I can recall one single time when I've looked at someone elses headcovers.  Even if I DID notice them, it surely wouldn't make me think "Man, I need to go buy those clubs"  because I've already got the clubs I want in my bag.

The sock headcovers look cool...I was shocked at how small they look but I guess being knit, they stretch out much bigger than expected.

My philosophy on golf "We're not doing rocket science, here."

Those are very classy looking. Reminiscent of the classic knit covers of the 60's and 70's.

Any significance to the color scheme?  Look like University of Virginia or Auburn - but seeing your location I'm guessing not.

I like the stock headcovers for the most part. I go thru phases really, sometimes I'll just swap them out for generic wool type head covers.

If you know someone who knits, Etsy has plenty of patterns. The raw materials needed to make headcovers are actually very cheap compared to buying completed headcovers.

If not, still lots of choices in Etsy.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

That's really nice. The colours go really well together and are pretty subtle. I'm not a big fan of the NHL cart bags out there they look really cheap and tacky but yours looks really good.

Thanks! Yeah I'm not a fan of the NHL branded cart bags.. they're pretty much garbage. When I saw this at golf town I jumped on it! Plus with their fathers day sale it was down to $199 ($269 regular) then I was able to forgo the free $25 gift card for another $25 off.

If you want the feel of having more room in your bag, check out the Club Glove head covers.  They are zippered and have a very narrow profile around the shaft.  I like using them especially in my carry bag.

Wow, I could have sworn you were just an avid Bears fan.  I was getting ready to order those for my wife.  Hell, I may still!
