The present invention provides a cover for the head of a golf club,
especially a putter. The cover comprises a hollow body having an open
end, the body being arranged to define a slot which opens onto the open
end of the body. The slot is shaped and arranged to receive a portion of
the club when the club head is located in the body and to prevent
withdrawal of the club head from the body in an axial direction. In the
preferred embodiment, the slot is substantially L-shaped so that the
cover must first be rotated before it can be removed. The cover offers
good protection to a club head while being simple to fit and remove.
