I always use coil covers over my coils.

Every time. Keeps me out in the field instead of sidelined for repairs, protects my investment and keeps my resale value high.

I never, ever hunt without one.

Coil covers are cheap to replace.

Coils, not so much.

After the 20 minutes it takes putting one on an AT Pro coil (especially the 5x8), I'll never take it off again!
