    How do people clean their irons ?! I've just been using warm water then towel dry at the moment

    Any other options

    Thanks

  2. Usually the way I clean them is I fill a bucket of water and add some soap and dip them in and let em sit for a couple seconds and then wipe them down with a towel

    Dip in bucket, soft bristle brush scrub of grooves, re-dip, towel off. (No metal bristles on forged clubs.)

    Also, every week or so, I spray some Simple Green on grips, scrub with soft bristle brush, rinse well, let dry.

    I try to clean my clubs after each shot. Just a quick brush and wipe with the towel. Some of the dirt and sand out west here tends to turn to concrete rather quickly. Especially in 110 degree heat.

    If I miss a club, then soak in a bucket of water, brush if necessary and hose off. They dry with a towel.

    Spit and towel after each shot. Nothing like a good spit shine!

    Believe me Paul, there are days I pray for 18 degree weather. I would much rather be cold than hot. You can only take off so many clothes before the club kicks you off the course. Ha Ha.

    At almost just about after each shot, just a damp towel works. When a little mud is on, a nylon brush or the back steel brush if it's stubborn to take out of the groves. Shafts and grips just needs a wipe down with damp towel.

    I use a wet towed to clean the club after each shot and have never had a problem. I guess it falls under "the more you clean it, the easier it is to clean" theory. It just takes a couple of seconds before you put the club back into your bag and there is no clean up necessary after the round. This way, you will always have a perfectly clean clubface each time you take a shot.

    I have a spray bottle that I keep water in with a limited amount mild solution and spray it on my clubs, use a soft tooth brush and wipe off with a bath towel. Nice clean and shiny. Wiping them down with a damp towel after each use helps keep them building up residue. Damp towel to clean grips.
  11. I clean my clubs at the range and after each shot using water provided...nothing special. However, once every three weeks, I clean the grips using a basic dishwashing soap and warm water then towel drying. Together my clubs and grips seem to always perform like new...

    Just my two cents!

    Like some others have mentioned, using a damp towel after each shot has been the best solution I've found and has worked really well for me so far.

    During the round just a wet towel. After the round I use the same damp towel and add a little bit of dishwashing soap and use a brush when needed. I probably don't clean my grips enough and could take that advice from Chris.
  14. Spit and Brush... Wipe clean with a waffle towel. Quick and easy... just becomes a part of the post shot routine.

    I clean my clubs after each use. A bucket of water, soft brush and a soft towel. I'll clean my Golfpride grip only when needed with a wet towel then dry well. I will say my AP1's lost their new finish quicker than expected. This hasn't affected the most important aspect, club performance.
  16. I use hot water and an old toothbrush to clean all my clubs. Then I just towel dry them.

    Cathi posted a while ago to never dip your clubs in a bucket of water unless they're a blade as AP1 & 2s are not water sealed. I just wipe them down with a damp towel after ever hit and then after every round, wipe down the shafts, grip and heads. I love having great looking, clean clubs every shot and every day. Really gives you a lift!

    Do what caddies do. Get a towel where the fibers are a little lose and wet one end of it. It gets in the grooves for the most part and gets them pretty clean. Soft bristle brush also works when the dirt is fresh.

    I clean mine after every shot with a soft brissle brush and a damp towel. Sometimes with a little spit if needed. When I'm on the range with a practice session or a warm up bucket I use the cleaning bucket supplied at the range. After every few rounds I give the grips a good cleaning with a damp towel and let air dry before they go back in the bag.

    Damp towel on the course, and soft brush on the groves. However beware of using too much hot water on the clubs, it can loosen the ferrules on the shaft. If it happens just get a drop or two of super glue and apply and all will be ok.

    I use a tooth brush and hot water. Then I wipe down with wd-40 so they don't rust.
