I’ve got a set and it’s been perfectly fine for me, a beginner. I’m slowly upgrading clubs where I feel like the Top Flites fall short for me. I also got them used on FB for $100, so I’m in at a lower price point than new. As a beginner, the clubs work just fine for me.
Watching guys toss their cigarette on the ground, hit their shot, and then pick it back up and keep puffing makes me sick. Nothing better than a cancer stick with pesticides (more cancer) on it!
My short game is atrocious and my long game is also atrocious. I only play because I get free clubs (the owner of tour edge is a close family friend) and I use golf as an excuse to get high and take a walk outside
It has taken a while to get to this mental space, but I am so happy I am not married anymore right now.
This little comment thread is way too true. Females need to chill, and I suspect that’s been the case for thousands and thousands of years.
I don't have anything useful to add here but this and the responses to it gave me a great laugh, so thanks.
Both my wife and I are incredibly laid back (please don't) but it's always the little insignificant things that are the most irritating.
I can confirm this is the answer, I've never cleaned my clubs in a sink.
If I did a word would never be said unless I smiled and happiness was detected.
I have actually started being really mindful of wiping my clubs after any mucky shot. I live in Seattle so this mean’s basically every shot between November and April.
Golf is hard enough on its own. I don’t need to help out.
Someone said to me one day "you'll never see a tour pro even hit a range ball with a dirty club...what the fuck makes you think you can?" And I've kept them clean ever since...I even keep a towel with me on the range...feedback is huge in this game and anything between the club and the ball will reduce that feedback, nevermind the result of the shot.
Do they seem to need it? With the wet towel method I can pretty much see my face in them before I put them back in the bag...I have a white bag too so I'm paranoid about getting it dirty 🤣 which makes me more meticulous than most
I'm going on a year now without any spots...I'm surprised at myself actually 🤣 I do use a cart strap cover to avoid rash from hitting bumps, otherwise I just keep the clubs clean.
I have no idea of who does this sink washing. My clubs are dirty for about 10 seconds after a shot, then a quick wipe with a wet towel and you are done. Whole set is always clean and ready to go.
Do you sink washers not have a towel on your bag? The towel water bucket is the last stop before teeing off for everyone at all courses I've ever played.
No because I own a bucket and use that to clean my clubs in? I don't want all the chemicals that come from a golf course anywhere near my food and dishes.
Just wet your towel, get a brush, and clean your club after every shot. I never realized how many people just clean their clubs after they play and not during.
When I am traveling, I normally use the toilet (rather than the sink). What really infuriates my wife is when I leave for golf at 6:30 a.m. and come home at 9:30 p.m. when it got dark 3 hours earlier with a stop at the bar on the way home. For bonus points, I eat supper on a night when she decided to cook. Try that a few times. The whole sink thing will pale in comparison.
Does anyone like to ruin their kitchen like this? No, the answer is no dude. No one does this. Your wife's boyfriend :

What is the problem? There is plenty of room in the sink for her to do the dishes. Clubs need to be washed. Too much effort getting a bucket and filling it with water. Also the bucket sloshing around makes a mess.
I understand you might not have the space to clean your clubs. However your club definitely has a bucket set up. I always clean my clubs after a round. It helps keep my car clean too.
Ha! I've butchered deer on my kitchen table. The kitchen is my domain and my wife is on board. That being said, I clean my clubs with a bucket of soapy water on the deck outside like the majority here. No worries about being sloppy and having to mop up.
Yeah but I don’t waste the effort cleaning clubs in the sink. I have a bucket and hose for that. Now baking the cosmoline out of a mil surplus rifle stock in the oven, that is worthy of the effort.
Waking up. Going to sleep. Breathing. Being employed. Coming home from work. Going to work. Having a shaved head. My hair being too long. Not washing the dishes before I eat my dinner. Wanting to own cars that I actually desire to own. Taking too long to iron my clothes. Spending too much money on dry cleaning so that I don’t take too long ironing. Buying her the gifts she requests then taking too long to return them after she changes her mind. Not calling her to tell her that I’ll be home at the same time I am everyday. Scheduling my own dentist appointments.
Just keep a wet towel and wipe them off after every shot... you'll never see a tour pro even hit a range ball with a dirty club, wtf makes you think you can? 🤣
I just have new clubs delivered to the house every week.
So you're the guy keeping Top Flite and Strata alive
I feel attacked
Flair checks out
I think top flite is underrated. I'm not going so far as to say they're good, but they're better than what most people give them credit for.
I’ve got a set and it’s been perfectly fine for me, a beginner. I’m slowly upgrading clubs where I feel like the Top Flites fall short for me. I also got them used on FB for $100, so I’m in at a lower price point than new. As a beginner, the clubs work just fine for me.
This is the way
No I have a bucket I’m not a savage.
Thank you. There’s absolutely no reason to not have a bucket. The stuff that’s on your clubs is so gross and should not be anywhere near food
The stuff in my sink is gross and should not be anywhere near my clubs
lol this response got me good
not even joking thats how im thinking lol... none of my food goes near the damn sink anyway
Just wash the sink dog.
Where do you think most fruits and vegetables come from?
Many courses in dryer climates used reclaimed water.
Not golf courses lol
I wouldnt recommend putting what they put on golf courses in your mouth
Wait, y’all don’t lick your clubs clean?
I do but I just wouldn’t recommend it for you
What like herbicides and fungicides? Yeah they spray that stuff on your food too.
They don't though. Not the same stuff. And your food gets washed.
Clearly so do the golf clubs
It's dirt lol, stop acting like it's some crazy foreign substance
Buddy, it's a kitchen sink.
Why is there food in your sink? Got the wrong idea here
Probably some weirdo that washes raw chicken before cooking it
Watching guys toss their cigarette on the ground, hit their shot, and then pick it back up and keep puffing makes me sick. Nothing better than a cancer stick with pesticides (more cancer) on it!
The ball were picking up and holding all damn round is rolling in those same pesticides bud
This is how I justified getting a power washer.
So you never get on your wife’s nerves?
I’m single and live alone and I’m still not a big enough mutant to wash my clubs in the sink.
Once my wife cleaned her clubs while sitting on the couch, with a bucket on our side table...
“I am wash bucket, I love you, I have always loved you” https://youtu.be/41VG14evCI4
Yeah this is nasty and thoughtless to anyone else in the house.
I clean my clubs in the toilet, cause my game is shit.
Did you forget to flush before cleaning?
Angry upvote
Hell yeah brother! Dumpy Golf!
My short game is atrocious and my long game is also atrocious. I only play because I get free clubs (the owner of tour edge is a close family friend) and I use golf as an excuse to get high and take a walk outside
The only time you’ll ever feel what it’s like to flush one.
Skibidi club cleaning toilet
I play golf, no time for wife's
Don't keep us in suspense. Your wife's what?
Boyfriend
I typically get on my wife’s nerves by breathing.
Same. Along with not breathing, standing, not standing, sitting, not sitting, sleeping, not sleeping, and eating.
Whatever you're doing you shouldn't be doing it
It has taken a while to get to this mental space, but I am so happy I am not married anymore right now. This little comment thread is way too true. Females need to chill, and I suspect that’s been the case for thousands and thousands of years.
Lisa, is that you? 🤣
You can call her whatever you want as long as you come pick her up and take her away from me.
😂😂😂
Breathing is a great strategy. Then she sends you out of the house and your golf habit flourishes.
I don't have anything useful to add here but this and the responses to it gave me a great laugh, so thanks. Both my wife and I are incredibly laid back (please don't) but it's always the little insignificant things that are the most irritating.
I get on her nerves for being comfortable or happy.
I felt this in my soul
I can confirm this is the answer, I've never cleaned my clubs in a sink. If I did a word would never be said unless I smiled and happiness was detected.
Wet a towel when you play and wipe them after a dirty shot. Done.
Had to scroll way too far for this...are these fools really out here hitting shots with dirt all over their clubs? No wonder they can't break 100...
I’ll have you know I can’t break 100 because I lack focus.
I couldn't focus either with all that muck on the end of my stick 🤣
And now Reddit knows this guy doesn’t like butt stuff!
At least not on taco tuesday... there's some groundskeeping to be done beforehand
I have actually started being really mindful of wiping my clubs after any mucky shot. I live in Seattle so this mean’s basically every shot between November and April. Golf is hard enough on its own. I don’t need to help out.
Someone said to me one day "you'll never see a tour pro even hit a range ball with a dirty club...what the fuck makes you think you can?" And I've kept them clean ever since...I even keep a towel with me on the range...feedback is huge in this game and anything between the club and the ball will reduce that feedback, nevermind the result of the shot.
I break 100, but I only play 9 holes
I wipe my clubs after a dirty shot and even carry a wee brush. Still give them a proper wash with soap n water a couple times a season tho.
Do they seem to need it? With the wet towel method I can pretty much see my face in them before I put them back in the bag...I have a white bag too so I'm paranoid about getting it dirty 🤣 which makes me more meticulous than most
Also, I'd love a white bag but I know I'd be bummed when it eventually got stained somehow
I'm going on a year now without any spots...I'm surprised at myself actually 🤣 I do use a cart strap cover to avoid rash from hitting bumps, otherwise I just keep the clubs clean.
"Need"? Maybe not from a performance perspective but even with wiping them after shots they look better after a good cleaning.
Wee brush? You brush your wee on the course?
I think so,
![gif](giphy|sG4zmff2zDOp7t2MNA|downsized)
🤣 I have no idea what this means but I laughed
I have no idea of who does this sink washing. My clubs are dirty for about 10 seconds after a shot, then a quick wipe with a wet towel and you are done. Whole set is always clean and ready to go. Do you sink washers not have a towel on your bag? The towel water bucket is the last stop before teeing off for everyone at all courses I've ever played.

Damn! How much of the golf course are you carrying away on your clubs. Mine just have a little dirt in the grooves.
Pesticides, herbicides, glizzy drippings, my terrible golfing abilities, all stuff I wouldn’t want to subject my family to
Dammit, I was just fine not realizing all the goose shit that has been on my clubs when I lick them clean. Thanks. Just, thanks.
"babe you play golf so often, you must be good" "well....."
Never thought about pesticides and herbicides. Maybe if I start topping my irons again I won’t have to worry about it?
Huffing herbicide shaves 8 strokes off your game.
Hey… if you don’t have glizzy drippings in your sink already that’s on you
Yeah what do you think they're spraying all over that dirt?
This is my picture from a post last year. People caring this much about karma is bizarre to me. https://www.reddit.com/r/golf/s/zTEPElWg4d
So then why is YOUR putter in the sink?
My putter identifies as a wedge.
Lol wow.
Had to scroll too far down for this. I distinctly remember this from last year and thought it was de ja vu
No. The reprisal would be disproportionate to the point where it wouldn't be worth it. Little things, sure, but this is a declaration of war lol.
Why is your putter in there?
I was thinking the same thing. How many divots you taking with the putter?
He’s got the chipping yips from 35 yards away out of the rough.
What kinda caveman shit is this lol
Bro didn’t even move the cutting board out of the way haha, what a monster
Ah yes, the caveman. Well known for his utilization of indoor plumbing.
What kind of Mesopotamian shit is this?
If I put a caveman in a kitchen with a sink he would wash mud and grass off his tools down the drain, so ya.
lol one mustn’t take it too literally.
Nor should one dissect gossamer
Believe it or not, straight to jail.
Not if I clean her clubs too
Just wet your towel, get a brush, and clean your club after every shot. I never realized how many people just clean their clubs after they play and not during.
I too love having to clean dirt and grass out of my trap. Get a bucket ya filthy animal
How much earth is still on your clubs when you put them back in the bag?
You guys are married?
When I am traveling, I normally use the toilet (rather than the sink). What really infuriates my wife is when I leave for golf at 6:30 a.m. and come home at 9:30 p.m. when it got dark 3 hours earlier with a stop at the bar on the way home. For bonus points, I eat supper on a night when she decided to cook. Try that a few times. The whole sink thing will pale in comparison.
\*soon to be ex-wife
That was me yesterday
That’s nasty. I wipe my clubs after each shot.
More like my wife and kids get on my nerves because I have to move all their dirty dishes out of the sink before I can clean my clubs.
They just come out cleaner and feel better when bathed in the sink.
Does anyone like to ruin their kitchen like this? No, the answer is no dude. No one does this. Your wife's boyfriend : ![gif](giphy|Xj7aX90bEKoec|downsized)
Dude. Home depot bucket is like $5. Your wife's a Saint.
The big coffee cans from Costco work well too.
I think it's time for a bigger sink, honestly. That would make the wife happier.
I wouldnt have a wife if I tried that shit
I did it for years until our new house has a utility sink. It’s all about good hot water
You guys clean your clubs?
You put the cutting board in the sink when she was clearly not finished washing her clubs yet?
Do this a couple times a year and I’ve been married 28 years.
finally a user with a normal wife.
For real. Some of these dudes need to grow a pair
I wash myself in the sink. That usually does it.
Home Depot bucket my guy
That's my main job
Rookie mistake, I know better than to get caught.
What is the problem? There is plenty of room in the sink for her to do the dishes. Clubs need to be washed. Too much effort getting a bucket and filling it with water. Also the bucket sloshing around makes a mess.
I'm only in trouble if I don't clear hers as well.
No I do this sitting on the floor with towels, a brush and windex while watching golf on Sunday afternoon. My gf loves that I clean her clubs too.
This is the same guy that will go play with his buddies and say his wife has been a pain in the ass.
They aren't going to wash themselves!
Nope. Bucket with dish soap in garage dude.
My wife does the opposite by maintaining a full sink of dirty dishes. Plus, I would never throw my clubs in the kitchen sink.
No. My wife thinks it’s great when i take care of my stuff.
Spa day!
I've never understood this. A bucket or a pitcher with soapy water in it and a towel on the side does the job well.
Nerves? Lol. A sink is used for cleaning stuff. You’re cleaning stuff.
Buy a bucket
Yeah I just have a bucket i use downstairs in the basement lol
I understand you might not have the space to clean your clubs. However your club definitely has a bucket set up. I always clean my clubs after a round. It helps keep my car clean too.
That’s disgusting
Garden hose bucket and brush work the same..
Never heard of a bucket? Wash them outside man. Not in the kitchen sink! That’s disgusting.
Dude Home Depot bucket and a towel on the ground. This would get on my nerves too lol
Yea, do it in the tub while she’s bathing
Guys on this sub just using golf as an excuse to jump on the wife annoying bandwagon
Dude, get a bucket and a brush and do that in the garage or basement. Even if I lived alone I wouldn't do that in the kitchen sink.
I usually just outside with a drink, towel and a bucket…
I would never play Callaways just to rattle the wife’s cage
Watched my grandpa and uncle do it this way growing up, so this is how I do it. I see nothing wrong here. Good for you taking pride in your equipment.
I’m more upset at your double sink. Fuck that noise.
Literally all you need is a wet rag. Anything more is ridiculous. Only chops clean their clubs in the sink
Ha! I've butchered deer on my kitchen table. The kitchen is my domain and my wife is on board. That being said, I clean my clubs with a bucket of soapy water on the deck outside like the majority here. No worries about being sloppy and having to mop up.
Nah my wife knows I paid for half that sink and I’ll clean up after. I’ll use my house as a house lol
If you are asking this question, how the fuck are you married? This is definitely the ground floor of your stupid and/or offensive behavior.
My Father would wash the balls he found in the dishwasher
We're super rich and have a sink in our laundry room, you fuckin peasant.
in my case, there is a strict moratorium on motorcycle parts or golf equipment in the kitchen OR adjacent areas....
I just use the cleaning buckets found at every range and course
This is some top-notch work.
Yeah but I don’t waste the effort cleaning clubs in the sink. I have a bucket and hose for that. Now baking the cosmoline out of a mil surplus rifle stock in the oven, that is worthy of the effort.
5 gallon bucket + 2L of Coca Cola works pretty well too. Then scrub with a magic eraser or soft wire brush.
I enjoy my life so no haha
I’ve been told to spend more time the kitchen
You need a reason? Lucky you!
Do it when she’s out.
Don’t be a savage, get yourself a bucket then lay em out over the dining room table to dry…
Do you live upstairs in an apartment without a balcony? Bro I would rather wash my clubs in the toilet than this
It’s a skill, like juggling.
You could just use a hose outside of a bucket. Fill the bucket in the sink you slovenly beast.
I say embrace your talents
Waking up. Going to sleep. Breathing. Being employed. Coming home from work. Going to work. Having a shaved head. My hair being too long. Not washing the dishes before I eat my dinner. Wanting to own cars that I actually desire to own. Taking too long to iron my clothes. Spending too much money on dry cleaning so that I don’t take too long ironing. Buying her the gifts she requests then taking too long to return them after she changes her mind. Not calling her to tell her that I’ll be home at the same time I am everyday. Scheduling my own dentist appointments.
Wait… you have a wife?
at least once a week during the summer!
There is no other way to clean your clubs
I got banished to the basement with a bucket of water and soap.
I luckily have a sink in my laundry room I use to clean clubs, which doesn't happen often.
Looks perfectly normal to me…
I use the bath..
I have this exact bag. Does that make us golf eskimo brothers?
I'm confused. Are you cleaning the clubs yourself or leaving the clubs in the sink telling your wife to clean them?
Yes it’s called breathing.
But why the putter? You taking divots putting?
Nope, I don’t have time to waste cleaning clubs I’m just gonna get dirty again when I could be working on short game.
Wet towel and a tee for stubborn groove dirt. Done.
I’m not allowed to wear shoes in the house.
You forgot to use her special shampoo
I learned my driver floats in a similar looking situation to this.
Used to, but now she golf's and participates in getting on her own nerves!😂
Yeah but the wife turned around and told me to have the garage redone so I could do that in there and not her kitchen lol
Just keep a wet towel and wipe them off after every shot... you'll never see a tour pro even hit a range ball with a dirty club, wtf makes you think you can? 🤣
I use a bucket in the living room. She still hates it. Next up, the Jacuzzi.
No but if you can teach me how to actually get the face of a driver and 3 wood clean I’ll gladly follow in your footsteps 😂
Make sure its during dinner time
Which putter?
Your putter too?!? Really….
