Head covers for Irons

[One Planer]

Anybody use these?

Worth it or waste of money?

I have them but considering ditching them.

Any opinions on them welcome.

Got a set for mine and they are still in great condition. Hate bag chatter anyway and so a thumbs up from me

 

[quinn]

they're good if you have some really [****] irons, personally not for me, shouldnt be worried about your irons getting marked in your bag when your smacking stones in bunkers and fairways with them

 

[AuburnWarrior]

I use them.

For no other reason than my irons are very soft and they'll dent easily so I protect them with headcovers.

They do look a bit knobby though..

 

[quinn]

no offence by my reply, im sure your irons arent [****] homer but you know what i mean

Had them on my clubs until yesterday and finally ditched them. They were just too much trouble and also I was starting to lose them one by one

This is my point exactly. I'm trawling the net to see if my TM R7 irons are forged or cast (I have the feeling they are cast). If they are cast I'll ditch the covers, Forged, I'll keep em

Buy Pings and you'll never need covers

wise choice mate, but saying that they are useful on a sunday morning for keeping the noise down when the heads a bit fragile

Me and headcovers don't have the best of relationships so I don't use them myself. Still waiting to get my driver headcover on the right way round on the first attempt. But that's probably because I'm a plonker more than anything.

I've got forged irons and thought the head covers would be a good idea, what a waste of money!

Much more trouble than they're worth, so you might get a few minor dings from bag chatter but I'm yet to be convinced about this. I can't see how it can happen unless you carry and throw your bag around or hurl your clubs back into your bag.

I use these fellas, look grand, no noise and protect my forged irons.

Yes, but your athritic fingers will mean that the headcovers remain off the clubs!!

I have some still in the box for when I decide to venture overseas, those baggage handlers show no mercy!

Wouldn't use em over here though, would drive me mad keep taking them on/off, I don't even use my putter cover while doing a round.

 

[quinn]

i take it all back, flash git mine were black with the strings thru them reminded me of my old school coat with the attached mittens

 

[Tiger]

I'll be getting the clear ones next time. Hate bag chatter drives me bonkers!

I've had head covers on my MP58's since the day I got them - just over a year ago.
Over 100 rounds plus practice and they still look good - ok not new but they certainly don't look 100+ rounds old.
Worth every penny.

 

[Evesdad]

I had them because of the clatter while carrying, then lost the sw one! Then got really fed up putting on and off thought sod it I'd rather listen to them banging about!

Before sunday I was fully in the "iron head covers are for knobs" corner, but having seen IMurg's MP-58's that are protected by his (awesome looking) Mizzy neoprene iron covers, I would definitely buy a set if I had a new set of forged irons.

They don't look new, but they're not far off! Definitely a wise investment.

Never had them, never will, always use forged irons. They get some bag chatter. Big deal.
