Okay to leave clubs in car?????

[Dub]

This week is the first really intense weather we've had.

It was over 100 out on the course at noon today.


I've taken them out of my truck's backseat and left them locked in the garage. Now I have to remember to take them with me when it's time to play!!!!

Got to stay in the trunk.....no time to stop home after work to grab them....and as said above, ya never know when you'll pass a range, course, etc.....

One note, if you happen to wet a towel in a pond at the course to clean the clubs as you play, and you toss the clubs in the back of your SUV, and it gets in the 90s the following days.....you may notice you truck will reek pretty bad.

So, bring the towel inside, not the clubs :)

I dont think it will have too much affect on your clubs. but as another user said, it may overheat your rubber grips.

i would suggest keeping them in your car if you absolutely need to. preferably not as a long term storage facility

i would be more worried about people seeing your clubs a stealing them.

I used to live in Texas and while I was in college I worked at a golf course. I left my clubs in the trunk of my car all the time and the epoxy did weaken. I had two heads depart the shaft rather unexpectedly (not at the same time!) and then had to hunt them down in the weeds.

I suggest that you grab the grip in one hand, the club head in the other, and give it a good twist. See if you can feel any movement or hear the epoxy crackling. If not, you are probably ok. But, if you live in a hot climate, you are on borrowed time until you launch one.

If you change your grips every year then they are probably going to be OK in the trunk.
