Hugemidget Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 The more we all get into this money pit of a sport we call golf, the more "things" we seem to accumulate. Constantly tweaking grips, shafts, gloves, towels, etc etc. One thing that I think is missing, is some cool headcovers. I've been looking for a cool headcover, but cant seem to find anything I really like. I know CMC, Pins & Aces, Cayce, and even Etsy have some nice stuff, but nothing stands out. A lot of them look cheap or Tacky. The pretty sweet ones seem to cost upwards of $100 - $200, which seems nuts for a headcover, right? Is anyone kinda getting the same feeling or have some places that may be undiscovered that have good options? Few options I have ran into https://www.caycegolf.com/products/swing-thoughts-golf-head-cover This headcover perfectly encapsulates my mind when playing golf https://www.daphnesheadcovers.com/products/tiger?variant=39699011305536 I don't have the game to rock up to a course with one of these Shifty, Gbufer, mllawson and 3 others 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcgalley Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 (edited) This is an obsession of mine! I love the look of a well styled bag, and am all for wasting money on making your bag look your own! Definitely do think some brands go over board on pricing though, feels like they are pricing out a huge portion of people who love golf. Here’s a few favorite brands to snag or just “window shop” headcovers under $100: Devereaux Golf Random Golf Club Jones Sports Co Metalwood Studio Sugarloaf Social Club Sokim (got my wife a cool fluffy yellow driver cover) Technically Golf Sunfish Golf Band B Golf Etsy (Tasselhoff Golf, Auld Grey Toun, Austin Knitty Limits) New Era (randomly has a cool hat headcover) Reinland Golf Co Palm Golf Malbon (every now and then they won’t ask for your first born as payment) Right now I currently have the Jones White Driver cover, Devereaux Snake Wood cover, Sunfish Knit Hybrid cover, Auld Grey Toun Knit cover, and the Bad Birdie Black Mallet Putter cover. All of which I can say are great quality!

RetiredBoomer Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Although they were hideously expensive, I always loved the barrel style fabric headcovers from Seamus. I loved the fairway wood models while preferring a funny animal puppet headcover (like Tiger's tiger) for the driver. Their current web page, however, shows only a fraction of the models that they offered up until recently. They must be winding down operations. Nothing goes on or comes off slower and more awkwardly than an OEM included headcover. Rob Person and Hugemidget 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheelieb Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Haha, if he is moving it’s progress right?!? And the sloth was the first head cover I bought when I got a Wilson Cortex back in 2020. Realized I didn’t have any forgiveness with it and was first starting out, so I went and got “fit” at Edwin Watts in Florida. The guy looked at my clubhead speed and said I need something other than the sloth for the head cover.

Coulter Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 I have in the past looked for some head overs I like and pretty much just find a lot of stuff that are kind of corny.. I sort of get tired of the generic head over that comes with a new club but never seem to find a suitable replacement that isn’t super corny or expensive Rob Person and Wheelieb 2 Quote I have a cobra rad speed driver, cobra fly z 3 and 5 wood, taylormade m1 irons (5-PW), Top Flite Gamer wedges (52,56,60), and odyssey white ice putter. When I’m playing to keep score I typically play the Maxfli Tour X. When just getting a round in with friends or scrambling I play whatever I might find on the course or might find at the bottom of my bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hckymeyer Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Highly Highly recommend Bestgrips. Quality is amazing, has some cool "stock" covers but can custom make anything. I did a full matching set of Transformers covers prob 5 years ago and they still look and feel great with zero quality issues. I've since replaced/added a couple more fairway covers and they are also great. Zach is the owner and a great guy. All hand made in his shop in Texas. Best thing is his stock and custom head covers are the same price. https://bestgrips.com/ wcgalley 1 Quote Driver: SLDR w/ Fujikura Ventus Black 3w: '16 M2 hl w/ Diamana D+ 82 5w: Launcher HB w/ HZRDUS Yellow Hybrid: 22 deg.

88Buster Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 The original version of Iliac made some really nice leather head covers that I have had for over 10 years. They are finally wearing out (the inside lining is falling apart) and I will likely replace them this year. I have no experience with Iliac since the change in ownership but I may give them another try as the current versions look good.

ChuckZ Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 I use to but realized you can only use one at a time. Being I am a Titleist guys I usually order their headcovers from their online special headcovers. I their pom pom and a Team Titleist (which is one of my favorite's) which I won at one of the events at Pinehurst. I support the course I play at the most and am on their interclub golf team. Charleston Municipal Golf Course, (#19 rated muni, by Golf.com in the U.S.), and a ProAm Jam R/W/B (an event that I volunteer for in Mt Pleasant since it began). Denny Hamlin [NASCAR #11] and Mark Bryant [lead guitarist of Hootie and the Blowfish] are the celebrity main sponsors. A worthy cause and get to meet a lot of great people. We are moving from Daniel Club Club to Bulls Bay this year. Other driver headcovers are Titleist stock. Outside those headcovers, I might pick up hybrid headcovers; The Masters, The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island, and Folds of and Honor. Only if they have a special meaning. Like I said, I use to. Would buy cutsies but finally passed them on to others to enjoy. At 77 guess I outgrew them. Hakuna Matata. We do what makes us the happiest, won't change out scores. ha..ha..

BuddaBlades Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 (edited) My wife found this headcover somewhere for Father’s Day a couple years ago, and honestly of all of them I own, this is the one that gets the most reaction.

dbdors Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 15 hours ago, Hugemidget said: Etsy seems to have some nice ones too I had been buying some black barrel style from Semus and they would change the liner for a red color. But last time I tried to order a replacement they said I needed to buy at least a set of 4 to get the custom (mind you, in the past I've bought 5 of the same cover and at least 2 replacements, for lost or extra covers). I Just found a lady on Etsy that basically makes the same thing with a red liner that I want and her prices are much better. And she was great to deal with and fast deliver. I find that working with the smaller people on Etsy is a lot easier to do business with.

Shifty Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 My 5 wood and 3 wood covers are the baseball mitt ones with skulls on them. From the time I was 3 to 5 I wanted to be a pirate when I grew up, lol. So the skull and crossbones are appropriate. These are from Robert Mark Golf. My driver cover is years old, from when I played poker everyday. Was rated 99.99% on official poker rankings back then. Poker was my life so headcover is also appropriate. Just can't seem to want to replace this one. I cannot remember where I got this... ebay maybe. from like 2007.

sbeiden Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 I met Jeremy Koons via The Golfers Journal, and he made me a completely custom headcover, a custom valuables pouch for my friend's ace/hole-out at Shorty's, and a completely amazing scorecard holder with specific details I asked for - my favorite holder ever. The quality and attention to detail is off the charts. I also have the privilege to call him a friend and have golfed with him a number of times at this point, including at Bandon Dunes two winters ago, and most recently this week we walked 90 holes at Grizzly Ranch in Portola, CA as part of an "All Day Rate" challenge we threw at ourselves to walk 90 holes, over 14 hours, 33 miles, and play every tee box for a 5x18 hole day. I cannot recommend his work highly enough. Here is where you can find him on Instagram and he will do anything for you custom - including scorecard holders which I also helped prototype and test. https://www.instagram.com/jk_headcovers/ If nothing else, enjoy the work he's done ranging from taking an Army veterans fatigues and turning it into a 3-piece hedcover set, pouch and more - something quite valuable to someone emotionally with great care and attention to detail. The outdoor brand jackets/shells/puffy's and vinyl purses are just hilarious. I think his swim trunk cover with the waist ties is another favorite. Super clever.
