Abstract: A protective cover for the head of a golf club having a main body formed a single piece cut from a sheet of foam rubber material, and a stretchable nylon or polyester fabric is bonded to the opposing surfaces of the foam rubber sheet. The single piece of sheet foam rubber material is folded along a substantially straight first edge and stitches along second and third edges to form a cover having a profile similar to that of the club head which it is to cover. The cover has an opening at the top thereof. The opening can be expanded in size to fit over the head of a club. The cover is also preferably equipped with a pocket. The pocket is sized to received a turf comb, which can be used to dress the grass on which the participants ball rests. The turf comb may be connected with a line or string to an anchor point within the pocket to reduce the possibility that the comb may fall from the pocket and become lost.

Abstract: The present invention provides a protective cover for the head of a golf club having a main body formed from a single piece cut from a sheet of foam rubber material. Foam rubber formed from either neoprene or polybutadiene is preferred. For a preferred embodiment of the invention, a stretchable nylon or polyester fabric is bonded to the opposing surfaces of the foam rubber sheet. The single piece of sheet foam rubber material is folded along a substantially straight first edge and stitched along opposite second and third edges to form a cover having a profile similar to that of the club head which it is to cover. Generally speaking, the cover has somewhat the same profile as a baby bootie. Like the bootie, the cover has an opening at the top thereof. The opening can be expanded in size to fit over the head of a club.
