With a new golf driver potentially costing over $500,How to Clean Golf Drivers Articles it is extremely important that you look after them. This means ensuring that they really don't damaged by having them strike hard surfaces or getting bumped when travelling.
It also means keeping them clean. A dirty golf driver can definitely cause you to lose power in your drive as the dirt, dust, sand or mud can certainly affect the contact with the ball. Cleaning your driver will also ensure that it lasts longer and looks better for longer in front of your golfing buddies. But above all, every golfer needs all the help that you can actually get. This is really the only reason why you should keep your golf drivers clean.
You really need to clean your clubs in a gentle way. You can actually do this by buying a cleaning kit from your local pro shop. If you want to save some money then you can certainly do it yourself at home. In order to do it yourself, you actually will need a bucket, mild dish-washing detergent, a soft toothbrush or soft dish washing brush, and also a clean rag. The first step is to fill the bucket with warm water and then add the detergent. You actually should fill the bucket up to the level where it covers the club head but doesn't necessarily go too far up the shaft. Place the club heads into the water and leave them to soak for five minutes. You really need to leave them for this time in order to the detergent to start removing the dirt and oil that has accumulated into the various grooves. The next step is definitely to remove the golf driver and gently scrub away the dirt and stains.
If you can't simply remove a piece of dirt, place the club head back into the water to soak for another five minutes and start again. Finally, using clean and fresh water wash off the remaining dirt and detergent. Use the towel to dry the club head.
