Golf Club Cleaning

Tips on Golf Club Cleaning.
The off season is a great time for cleaning your golf clubs, and dont forget your golf bag give it a thourough cleaning also, especially inside the pockets, including any other repairs and maintenance on your equipment. It's also a great time to take inventory of what you have, what you don't have and what you'll probably need to replace for next season.

When it comes to golf club cleaningyou have two basic choices. Have someone else do it for you, say, the pro shop--or, do it yourself. While there are a lot of things I recommend that the pro shop do, cleaning my clubs is something I like to do myself. Not only does make me feel good afterwards--newly cleaned clubs look great--but it also gives me some quiet time to inspect my clubs slowly and closely, which is something I totally overlook during playing season.
If you want to clean your clubs yourself, grab a few things and get to work. You'll need a bucket, some clean clothes, a tooth brush or something similiar, some mild dishwater soap and some elbow grease.

For your irons: Important Tip: Do NOT submerge your club heads into the bucket of water above the ferrules!!!. Make sure you have good head covers for your woods. A very good set of covers are NCAA Set of 3 Headcovers - Various Teams Set of three headcovers constructed of durable nylon features expandable socks that provide maximum shaft protection, three different sizes ensure a proper fit on your clubs and the #1 headcover is designed to fit up to a 460cc driver.


For newer golfers, the ferrules are those black rings where the club meets the shaft.
Okay, here we go. Put some warm water into the bucket, along with a dab of soap. Don't use very hot water. Hot water can loosen your ferrules. Also, you only need enough water to cover the heads of your irons...not the ferrules!
Put your irons, club face down, into the bucket and let them sit for a bit. When you're ready, take one out and using the old toothbrush, give the grooves a nice washing. There is a very good product worth looking at called, Denali Clubtub Portable Club Cleaner
