I was wondering the very same thing even though it wasn’t the OP’s club that is missing. It’s his buddy’s club.

I’ve played many of the courses in this area and Eagle Ridge is one of my favorites. It’s in a 55+ community just like TV and is usually pretty packed with golfers because of the great conditions and reasonable prices.

It seems strange to me for someone to take a random club like that, especially when they couldn’t tell what it was with the unrelated headcover. They had to be targeting the headcover first because they couldn’t see what club was underneath it.

The area of the bag rack at Eagle Ridge is just outside of the pro shop, putting green and restaurant entrance. There are a vast number of carts parked in that area at almost all times. If someone was looking to steal a nice golf club they would have literally hundreds, if not thousands of choices.

I would be livid if a club of mine was ever stolen so I can relate to the OP and his buddy. It just doesn’t make much sense to me that someone would steal a club that they couldn’t identify if they were targeting the headcover. Why not just pull it off the club? It would be so much easier to conceal. Not to mention that there are always several people in this area milling around waiting to go play, practice or just BSing.

I sincerely hope that this fellow finds his driver and headcover somewhere very soon. I suggest starting with the lost and found inside the pro shop.
