Cover up

[bobmac]

If you were playing a knock-out and at a par 3 you had the honour, would you cover up your clubs with a towel or something similar so your opponent couldn't see what club you were using?

 

[guest100718]

No.

 

[pokerjoke]

It wouldnt matter what club he chose when ive knocked it to 6"

 

[ScienceBoy]

Always, doesn’t everybody?

 

[Swingalot]

Not normally, but if he is trying to catch a look then I’ll do my best to either cover it up or turn the 9 over to show a 6.

 

[Yant]

No. Not really in the spirit of the game is it!

Good god, no.

 

[richart]

Never even thought about it.

 

[User101]

Tell them nothing, stand on their ball in the rough, kick it further in to the trees, whatever it takes....

 

[anotherdouble]

Never crossed my mind and I can't recollect seeing anybody I have ever played with deliberately do this. If they have then it's passed me by

 

[Bunkermagnet]

I don't need to do anything, as I have headcovers on each iron, and I always have my rain hood on so they would have to do some serious mooching to see what the club was.

 

[Canary_Yellow]

Seriously, would anyone actually bother doing this?

I'm not sure how it would be useful information for my opponent anyway, we're two different people, using different clubs, with different swings.

 

[patricks148]

no.... what use would knowing what club i'd used to knob it in the bunker short:rofl:

 

[Dando]

Once i've thinned it 50 yards over the green i am sure what club i have used will be of no importance

 

[jim8flog]

Given that different manufacturers have different lofts and different shaft lengths, even between models, the information gained is only relevant if you either know the differences or are playing the same make and model of club with the same shaft.

 

[foiled]

Always. Don’t want to get another 2 stroke penalty under rule 8-1

 

[ruff-driver]

Depends if the oppo is using M2 irons, if so he'll need 2.5 clubs less than me if which case i'd cover mine with a towel :whoo:

 

[Rlburnside]

No I'd never think of doing that.

 

[hines57]

never entered my head to do so. We all hit our clubs different distances anyway, so can't see what help it might be - more of a hindrance

 

[adasko]

Never, each person hitting different distance with different club.
