WRX Spotlight: Positive Vibes Golf covers
Product: Positive Vibes Golf covers
Pitch: From Positive Vibes Golf, “PVG covers are not just your average putter covers. Besides the high quality and workmanship involved they also have a purpose beneficial to your game. Our designs are based on trends of the time, food, bright colours, and generally subjects that make human being’s feel happy.”
Our take on Positive Vibes Golf covers
Established in 2018, Positive Vibes Golf is an artisan golf company based in Murcia, Spain, otherwise known as, “The golfing paradise of Europe.”
The name of the company is entirely in line with their clear and forthright philosophy, that: “Golf is a game that is played 95 percent mentally and 5 percent physically.” What PVG aims to do is to inject your bag with headcovers which contain warm, bright colors, while specifically targetting designs which generally make the human being happy, and which can also act as mental on-course training aids.
“We believe we are the only brand on the market at present that is providing products that act as on-course mental training aids.” – Rob McDougall, Positive Vibes Golf founder.
In a sport where frustration and difficulty can naturally lead to golfers succumbing to negative feelings on the course, PVG provides an important message: that enjoyment on the course should be of paramount importance. But as well as this positive message, what PVG also manages to do is to create quality products at extremely affordable prices.
There is a range of designs provided on the company’s headcovers. PVG’s “Like A Boss” cover combines sharp artwork with strong colors which complement each other greatly. The cover arrives in clean white with a very soft blood-red fleece inner lining. The detail on the cover is excellent while considering the product costs a mere $30; the strong magnetic closure was a pleasant surprise.
PVG also provide a similar themed “Boss Lady” cover for women in eye-catching pink and black colors. While all their “Boss” themed covers can be purchased for your putter, driver or fairway woods.
The brand’s smiling pig putter cover comes in three different and extremely vibrant colors of white, sunset orange and neon green, all of which contain a navy blue fleece inner lining. As with all of their products, the artwork is excellent and the covers are waterproof and stain-resistant, resulting in maximum durability at a very affordable price point.
I’ve reserved my special mention for the company’s “Winner Winner” cover, which you can get as a cover for your putter, fairway wood or driver. The cover comes in white and sunset orange, both with a gold fleece inner lining, and featuring a fun design. As well as the great mix of colors, the cover contains a superb fit, so there’s no danger of it slipping off the club at any time.
There are several unique designs and color schemes which PVG provides its customers with, and their website (PositiveVibesGolf.com) is well worth checking out as there are more than likely one or two great artworks that will catch your eye.
Ultimately, the relatively new Spain-based company delivers on their philosophy of not just providing designs to make you feel better on the course, but also providing quality at an affordable price for all golfers. The covers range in price from as little as $28 to $38, and considering the quality of the products and the uniqueness of the designs, you’d be hard-pressed to argue that they don’t provide exceptional value.

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss
In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
- driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300. The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length. I am playing a Ventus Red 70. I play 70 grams in my fairways. I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee. When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time. So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck. The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
- JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”
