Ideas were tossed around here on Golfwrx for some time about a 2008 headcover. We saw an idea posted and decided to run with it. We came up with a design and after a few weeks of hard work by Ryan and George, we have a winner.
Inspired the the 'Flying Tigers' of WWII. We felt the shape of the cover was perfect for a design like this. Here are the proofs fresh off the press. Because of the detail, these have a much higher thread count than a normal cover.
They come complete with the pinup girl on one side, and an '08' in the style of aircraft numbering on the other (for 2008 of course). Take a peek. It's really a unique cover.
Pricing is the same as previous headcovers:
- $35.00 each shipped to lower 48 states
- $40.00 to the rest of the World.
A special thanks to gxgolfer & beruo for making this happen.
If you're interested, please post in this thread. We have an initial order, but may bump it up due to interest.

I love HipCheck's feigned humility and wanting to stay out of the spotlight.

I was only marginally and peripherally involved here. This was all Rob with Ryan getting the ball rolling, which is why it looks so friggin' good! This is easily the coolest headcover I've seen to date.

As long as we're looking to bump the initial order, put me down for two. This will be getting all the play for a while.

These will be done by AM&E, and this is the proof cover they did off of HipCheck's mockup. Not sure what you mean by "off" though. Maybe how the "08" side seems slightly longer from top to bottom and the pinup side seems slightly "fatter"? Could be camera angle. No clue though--just guessing.

Just let me know when and how you'd like to be paid.

Great design, highly wantable.
Is the fastening velcro or magnetic?
Gxgolfer
Mar 20 2008, 08:22 AM
AME is velcro. Like the hats, I will contact people in this thread when I get them. AME really liked the design and this was done with their new fabric. It might look off as it was scanned in. We are looking at a supplier that does magnets and it's really nice but, we haven't found a cover material yet.
