To clean golf clubs properly, follow these key steps:
- Gather supplies: bucket, warm water, mild dish soap, soft-bristled brush (like an old toothbrush), towel, and microfiber cloth.
- Soak only the club heads in warm soapy water for a few minutes to loosen dirt—avoid submerging the shafts or ferrules to prevent damage.
- Gently scrub the club heads, especially the grooves, with the soft brush to remove dirt and debris.
- Rinse club heads thoroughly with clean water to remove soap.
- Dry the clubs completely using a towel to prevent rust.
- Optionally, polish the club heads with a cloth for extra shine.
- Clean the grips separately with soapy water and dry them well.
- Inspect the clubs for any damage, rust, or loose parts.
Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive brushes, or soaking clubs too long. Regular cleaning after rounds keeps clubs performing well and looking good.
