Ok, so here’s the situation, my parents went away…. Oh wait, that’s a Fresh Prince song. Let’s try this again. The situation, you are on a golf vacation of your life and you really want to keep your scorecard in mint condition for sentimental purposes. Let’s just say you are playing a round at Pebble Beach and you most likely will never be back. How can you protect that scorecard?
Corey Carrick of Coobs Golf has the solution with his sleek and affordable scorecard and yardage book covers. After several years of playing golf, Carrick had searched for a stylish scorecard cover but never could find one, well at least one that was affordable. That’s when he decided to put his Business Management/Operations degree to the test. The plan? Create a stylish scorecard holder that every golfer could afford.
Specs:
- Dimensions: 7.25″ x 4.25″
- Exterior: Crocodile PU Leather (not genuine crocodile).
- Interior: Black
- Elastic Straps / Interior Pocket / Pencil Holder
- Pencil Included
Looks/Feel:
Leather always feels nice, but crocodile-like leather feels even better in my opinion and looks pretty darn classy too. So when it comes to looks and feel, the Coobs Golf scorecards and yardage book holders get high marks. I’ve seen some folks on the course with some old leather scorecard books that don’t have any character to them at all. Maybe they have had them for a long time or their dad passed it down to them, but I prefer a bit more style and color. The crocodile leather looks great and you can tell it’s stitched together very well.
Performance:
Not much to really say about the performance of a yardage book cover. The key things here are, can it hold a standard scorecard or yardage book and will it last? The Coobs Golf books can hold pretty much every yardage book and nearly every scorecard. However, I did find a few bigger scorecards from my collection that didn’t quite fit. So if you play the same courses over and over again, make sure you check the dimensions of the Coobs books prior to purchasing. Now I can’t tell you whether or not the Coobs Golf books are going to last over time as I haven’t had mine long enough, but if the quality of the books are any indication, I think they will be just fine.
Overall:
I have to admit that these books looks great and the best part is they won’t cost you an arm and a leg. You can look like the pros for a very affordable price. They have one price of $31.95, which is applied to any item, no matter what color or design you choose. Also, you can pretty much select a color to match your style out on the course.
