Best of Everything 2021/22: These 5 headcovers should be on your radar

A headcover won’t help you shave a stroke or two off your handicap, but it does serve a valuable purpose, protecting your trusty (and potentially pricey) driver, fairway wood or putter from taking a beating during the round. These days, every club on the market — outside of irons and wedges — comes with a matching headcover, so maybe you’ve never considered the idea of splurging for something a little different.

Make this the year where that changes.

Take a look inside the staff bags of the tour’s elite and you’ll find countless custom headcovers. Tiger Woods has “Frank.” For Rory McIlroy, it’s the recognizable St. Bernard cover. Matt Fitzpatrick totes around Hilton Head’s famed lighthouse — in headcover form.

A unique headcover is a way to show off your personality or interests, without shoving it down your playing partner’s throat. With innovative headcover brands entering the golf accessory space each year, it’s become easier than ever to find a cover that fits in your bag.

If you’re unsure of where to start, the latest edition of GOLF’s Best of Everything is here to simplify the process. Our staff of experts found the best headcovers for those looking for value or those ready to splurge. Check our picks below, or visit our Pro Shop for a plethora of worthy options in other categories.
