Definitions
- the present disclosure relates generally to covers for golf club heads.
- Protective head covers are often used for golf clubs and other sporting implements, to protect them while not in use. These covers generally surround at least a portion of the golf club, protecting it from wear and tear that may be caused while the club is not in play, such as by being bumped against other clubs or being otherwise disturbed.
- Golf head covers may sometimes include ornamental or decorative aspects, that are aesthetically pleasing. Such decorative aspects may even serve to display advertising content to other golfers on the golf course.
- the golf head covers themselves are usually limited to narrow shapes. This ensures that the golf head covers will not interfere with one another when many golf clubs are stored in a single bag.
- golfers may desire more intricate shapes and decorative aspects for their golf head covers, existing golf head covers tend to be available only in simple designs with minimal protrusions, so that they will not interfere with golf club storage. Thus, more intricately designed golf club covers have not been made available to golfers.
- some golf head covers include pockets or pouches for storing additional golf implements, such as combs, tees or the like. Although such pockets may be convenient for golfers who carry these extra items onto the golf course, the pockets are usually located close to the golf head itself, such that they have enough structural support to adequately support the additional items they contain. Locating storage pockets near the golf club head also maintains the linear, narrow shape that is typical of currently available golf head covers for the reasons described above. However, placement of stored objects so close to the golf club head may unduly wear the golf head cover in that region, resulting in eventual exposure of the golf club head thereby defeating the purpose of the protective cover.

Description
- Field
- The present disclosure relates generally to covers for golf club heads.
- Background
- Protective head covers are often used for golf clubs and other sporting implements, to protect them while not in use. These covers generally surround at least a portion of the golf club, protecting it from wear and tear that may be caused while the club is not in play, such as by being bumped against other clubs or being otherwise disturbed.
- Golf head covers may sometimes include ornamental or decorative aspects, that are aesthetically pleasing. Such decorative aspects may even serve to display advertising content to other golfers on the golf course. However, because of the narrow, linear structure of golf clubs, and the typical storage configuration of golf clubs wherein many clubs are contained in a single bag, the golf head covers themselves are usually limited to narrow shapes. This ensures that the golf head covers will not interfere with one another when many golf clubs are stored in a single bag. Although golfers may desire more intricate shapes and decorative aspects for their golf head covers, existing golf head covers tend to be available only in simple designs with minimal protrusions, so that they will not interfere with golf club storage. Thus, more intricately designed golf club covers have not been made available to golfers.
- Additionally, some golf head covers include pockets or pouches for storing additional golf implements, such as combs, tees or the like. Although such pockets may be convenient for golfers who carry these extra items onto the golf course, the pockets are usually located close to the golf head itself, such that they have enough structural support to adequately support the additional items they contain. Locating storage pockets near the golf club head also maintains the linear, narrow shape that is typical of currently available golf head covers for the reasons described above. However, placement of stored objects so close to the golf club head may unduly wear the golf head cover in that region, resulting in eventual exposure of the golf club head thereby defeating the purpose of the protective cover.
- In one aspect of the present invention, a jersey shaped golf head cover includes a body portion having a first edge, a second edge substantially opposite the first edge, and an interior cavity arranged between the first and second edges and configured to accommodate a golf club head. The golf head cover further includes a first extending portion coupled to the first edge and extending away from the interior cavity, and a second extending portion coupled to the second edge and extending away from the interior cavity, wherein each of the first and second extending portions extends less than three fourths of the length of the body portion.
- In another aspect of the present invention, a jersey shaped golf head cover includes a body portion having a first edge, a second edge substantially opposite the first edge, and an interior cavity arranged between the first and second edges and configured to accommodate a golf club head. The golf head cover further includes a first extending portion coupled to the first edge and extending away from the interior cavity, and a second extending portion coupled to the second edge and extending substantially horizontally away from the interior cavity.
- In another aspect of the present invention, a golf head cover includes a body portion having a first edge, a second edge substantially opposite the first edge, and an interior cavity arranged between the first and second edges and configured to accommodate a golf club head, and an extending storage portion coupled to the first edge and extending away from the interior cavity, wherein the extending storage portion comprises a storage cavity configured to receive an object therein such that the object is supported peripherally from the body portion of the golf head cover.
- It is understood that other aspects of the present invention will become readily apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description, wherein is shown and described only exemplary embodiments of the invention, simply by way of illustration. As will be realized, the invention is capable of other and different embodiments, and its several details are capable of modifications in various aspects, all without departing from the invention.
