Abstract

A cover is described. The golf club cover is used to cover and protect a head and a hosel of the golf club, such as a putter head, from damage caused by contact with other metal clubs in the golf bag while being used and/or transported during or playing golf. The golf club cover includes a hosel portion and a head portion. The hosel portion includes an opening, which is in communication with a cavity. The cavity and the opening are configured to receive the golf club. The golf club cover includes a first opposing edge and a second opposing edge. A stretchable member joins the first opposing edge and the second opposing edge.

Description

FIELD OF INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a golf club head cover to cover a golf club head.BACKGROUND OF INVENTION[0002]Certain previous golf club covers utilize a strap that removably fastens to the golf club cover to hold the golf club cover to the golf club. Hook and look fasteners are often used to provide the fastening. Such golf club covers suffer from several disadvantages. The hook and loop fasteners tend to collect lint and debris, resulting in poor performance and a sloppy appearance. The hook and loop fasteners tend to tangle or snag on unintended objects. Further, the user has to insert their golf club into the cover and then grasp the strap and physically fasten the strap to the golf club cover. Such closing action requires several movements, which may prove burdensome or inconvenient during extended play of golf. If the golf club cover is not regularly and consistently used, then the golf clubs are more likely to be scratched or damaged.SUMMARY OF INVENT...
