Just wondering when the next installment of a GolfWRX putter headcover is going to come out. I loved and used my St. Pattys day 07 all year this year, but with 2008 on the horizon, whats next for me to game in 2008?

My 07 WRX headcover saw a lot of action, and a lot of putters (SC DD, SC Newport, SC Beach, Byron 007, 350 Milled) I am ready for a new one as well!

We have heard of ideas for a skull and cross bones and maybe a cover for each sign of the Chinese Zodiac. Dragon, Lion, horse, etc.

We are open to almost any design if there's enough demand.

^I'm up for a skull and bones, throw an old school pirate ship on the side and I'm ready to pay!

I'll walk the plank with that one!!!

How about a two ball (mallet) cover with magnetic latch?

These are the Chineses characters "Zhuan Ji". Zhuan means "turn into", and Ji is "opportunity". Together, they signify "turn for the better", or "turn into opportunity".
The only word in English I can think of that compares would be "Eucatastrophe", coined by Tolkien, which means something like " A sudden happy turn from a hopelessly bad situation".
Of all the clubs in the bag, I think this would most appropriately fit the putter.

And there is also the more well known "Wei Ji". Wei is crisis, and Ji is opportunity. Combined it means "a situation that has reached an extremely crucial, difficult or dangerous point".

Are you guys pirates of some sort?

Slightly off topic, but what about some Jan Craig style WRX headcovers for the woods?
Golfer1016
I agree, I think another holiday one would be cool. Maybe a christmas one, might be too late tho?
Professor
How bout a spring time "White and Green". Start them now and have them in time for the Masters, and more importantly, the Macgregor Green and White bags partytime2.gif
rpmsooner
I'm thinking a "Miami Ink" Koi fish type design would be pretty cool!!!
Konrad
I'd love to get a WRX putter cover that can fit my RedX2 mallet with a cool design on it. Maybe our member name on it?
Charlie_Foxtrot
Your Charter Members would probably like some with the Charter Member logo.

My vote for the auspicious chinese Dragon

Hey man I want to walk the plank. please the pirate one has to fly.
j0npeterson
I'd love to see a poker themed one...

I'd even go for the pirate idea too!
GolfTitan
More votes for a Pirate one...maybe Davey Jones locker on the side!! (Ok, that might be a bit much lol)

I second that idea...J

I wish I could start a chant on here for the Pirate one, that is the best idea ever. Black cover, Skull and Bones in white, and GolfWRX in blood red.

That sounds good to me, also a newer "clover" model would be a good seller. The ones with the chinese characters sound like a nice touch also, I am fairly easy to please!!!!!!! biggrin.gif

Are those the pom pom style cuz i want a set of those real bad. Preferabley black and red.

I also agree on skull and crossbones....arrrggggggggggggh cast ahoy matey! arrgggh!
My nickname is shark so of course that wouldn't hurt either. Maybe big sharp teeth biting a golf ball.
bjackson
Is it just me, or have most of these ideas been carried out by Scotty Cameron (Skull & Crossbones, Gambling/Vegas)? I mean, I want something unique to golfwrx, not a remake of a Scotty with a golfwrx logo.

Pink headcovers with unicorns and rainbows!

^that was funny.

For me, this tuesday signals the release of Pirates of the Carribbean, at Worlds End, so my "I wanna be a pirate" juices are flowing again.

I'm pretty sure AM&E can't do dancing logos for trademark reasons I think. I'm thinking like the actual skull and crossbones found on pirate flags, vs that laughing skull that scotty designed.

If not that, I'd go buckwild to have a Tiki tropically themed headcover with parrots or something.

i must have one

Count me in for a Pirate cover.
handmadeaddicted
Look I want a pirate head cover. Now GX right now. Ok but on a serious note I want one with a pirate skull and cross bones. Not a scotty lauching crap bag (not a scotty bash) well maybe a little. But I like the pirate idea please.
belote
You naysayers can say all you want that all of the ideas are scotty copies, and for the clover one you might be right. The skull and cross bones on the other hand would just be doing it right, not some cartoonish happy pirate. I don't want some kind of glow in the dark nonsense, when does that get used anyways, I want people to know that my putter is a dangerous weapon and the real skull and bones would definitely signify that.
Gxgolfer
AME will not do it but, there is another company that we can source through that can do dancing Skull and Crossbones. Just need a design. The covers would be from Asia. They would be leather and would be near to the same quality as AME. We may have closing options as well besides velcro.
iyan7
Gx,

What's a dancing Skull and Crossbones look like?

Just a simple jolly roger would do: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jolly_Roger

Perhaps a poll would be ok.

Thanks.
kitsoasis
is this going to be pirate + charter member puttercover or just pirates??
VERY interested...
GolfTitan
I to aggree, I think a standard jolly roggers skull and crossbones would be perfect!!

I'm not so sure I'm keen on the idea of a dancing skull?? Although I haven't seen it...so I can't comment.


Thanks again for taking the time to listen to your members and their requests. That's what makes this board truely the best out there!!


P.S. If any assistance is need with the graphic design side of the putter cover, I would freely donate some time to help out if needed.

yeah two putters and that would be sweet!

I kinda like what they did with the skull and cross bones here...

http://www.pirategolf.com/pages/catalog.htm

I think we could come up with a cool and unique one as well.

We have to decide weather or not we want to have a straight pirate motief or if we want to make a different version of the pirate... ie crossing golf clubs, drivers, or putters....


Eric

ps here is another link with the pirate head and crossed golf clubs....

I can put some vector images together if needed.
Gxgolfer
anything in a gif or jpeg format I can download. 800x600 or 1024 resolution is good so I can resize. 300 dpi. Looking for a Pirate theme consensus. Also lookin for dragons and rats theme for Chinese New Year.

Please remember that this is embroidery, so tiny details will not come through.
ripsid
Skull and bones! It's not a pirate thing with me, I'm just a lover of skulls and flames and such! Hell all my tats are skulls..*3/4 sleeve and 2 on my right arm*

SKULLS! MORE SKULLS!

How about a skull with the asian dragon snaking through the eyes?

I'll come up with an original skull & bones .jpg (300dpi). I'll also include .eps vector image if that's helpfull for the company converting the design.


P.S. Working in the web/graphic design world, there really isn't many copyright images. The copyright scheme is a whole different ball game with many misconceptions....but I won't get into that lol.
