How can you lower your scores by simply cleaning your golf clubs
you ask? It’s actually very simple. If you have clean golf clubs
you can make better contact with the ball. This allows the clubs
to do what they are designed to do without any interference form
grass, sand or mud on the face.
Since golf is a game about battling the elements, the golfer
need s all the help they can get. You deal with the hot sun, a
quick summer shower and even a little mud or wet grass on your
shoes. All these weather conditions can wreak havoc on your body
let alone your golf clubs.
It’s easy for you to shower and clean up, but your golf clubs
can’t! You have to clean them as much as possible. If you do
they will perform better, last longer, and help keep you clean
by keeping you on the short grass!
What’s the best way to clean them?
There are two ways to clean your clubs: 1) You can buy a golf
club cleaning kit from just about any pro shop. 2) You can also
easily do it yourself at home or at the course. Let’s look at
how to do it yourself. Here’s what you will need,
•A plastic bucket •Mild dishwashing detergent •An old toothbrush
or nonwire bristle brush •A clean towel or rag
Let’s clean!
1)First, fill the bucket with a little detergent and warn water
so it becomes sudsy. Add enough water to the bucket to cover the
heads of the clubs.
2)Second, submerge only the clubheads in the water, making sure
no to get the ferrules wet because this will damage the finish.
Soak the clubheads for a few minutes to help loosen the dirt,
oils, or remaining chemicals that may be stuck in the grooves of
the club.
3)Next, scrub each of the clubs individually with the soft or
medium bristled non-wire brush to remove all the dirt, grass
stains, or any other debris that might be on the clubface. If
you have difficulty getting it off the first time, just soak and
scrub the clubs again.
4)Now, rinse the clubs off with water form your garden hose
outside or a sink faucet if you are inside. Try your best to not
get the shafts wet when doing this.
5)Finally check over the clubheads to make sure the grooves are
dirt free. Then dry them of with a clean towel or rag. That’s it
you’re done.
Now you can enjoy playing the game with the added confidence of
knowing your clubs are nice and clean. Clean clubs produce a
better ball flight with more spin to stop the ball closer to the
hole. Play well!
