How to clean your golf club irons

Clean golf clubs work better than dirty ones.

While professionals and amateurs produce different kinds of divots with their golf clubs, the divots are responsible for the same kind of dirt within your club grooves. Dirty clubs can prevent you from getting the kind of spin that you would like and from getting the distance you need to shoot low scores. Cleaning your clubs is essential to producing the most pure shot possible. It also helps keep your game as sharp as possible during and after rounds.

Things You'll Need

• Golf Tee
• Towel
• Bristle Brush
• Toothbrush
• Bucket
• Mild Detergent

Instructions

1. Wipe your iron with a towel after every shot on the golf course.

2. Use a golf tee to clean between the grooves of your club while on the course, or use a bristled tool to brush the groves of your club clean.

3. Bang the club against the side of your shoe after sand shots to get all loose impediments out of the club.

4. Wipe the clubs with a wet towel after your round.

5. Deep-clean your clubs right after your round to prevent dirt from staying in your club. Fill a bucket with water and mild cleaning detergent. Use a toothbrush or other soft brush to scrub your grooves clean. Wipe and dry them with clean towels to remove any loose debris.
