Abstract: An improved golf club head cover and hands-free method of use allow a user to hold a golf club normally by the handle with one or two hands while standing substantially upright and slide the golf club head into and out of the head cover while the head cover is sitting on the ground, without the user needing to bend down or touch the head cover. A rigid cover may include a concave main body pivotally connected with one or more rotating components that include tabs that close the rotating components around the golf club head and shaft when the club is inserted securely into the cover. Magnetically attractive and repulsive structures may be included to assist with keeping the cover shut and holding it open. Traction structures are provided to laterally engage grass-covered ground to resist lateral movement during hands-free use.
