Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, the clubs can be damaged because they rub against one another in the bag as the golfer moves from hole to hole on the course.

Additionally, the golf clubs may become dusty when they are stored.

-For example,-some club head covers do not fit snugly around the club.

They tend to flop around as the golfer carries his bag, which can lead to the covers falling off the club.

Additionally, known club head covers come in several different sizes which limits their usability with several different golf clubs.

Another problem with known club head covers is their overall bland design.

The plastic covers are not any more attractive, as they too are unadorned plastic shells that surround each club head.

While aesthetically pleasing to some, these club head covers have become well known and add little excitement to the game of golf.
