ABSTRACT:
A protective cover for a golf club includes a cover body and an internal frame and may include an elastic means for biasing the cover to an open condition. The cover body is made of cushioning fabric material and includes a head portion for covering and protecting the head of the golf club and a shank portion extending downwardly from the head portion for enclosing an upper part of the shaft of the golf club. The frame is principally covered by the cover body and comprises a hinge, wings that swing about the hinge to open and close the protective cover, and fastening means at free edges of the wings. The elastic means if present is attached to the outer surface of the frame and resiliently biases the wings of the frame to the open position. Part of the cover at the head is unsupported by the interior frame, to accommodate club heads of various sizes and shapes. The cover can be opened and closed with just one hand of the user.
