Not sure if the is the right section but i was wondering how i should clean my TM R7 irons. I usually junk dunk the iron head in soapy water and scrub. I dont know if i should do this with my R7 because water gets behind the plate on the back of the iron and it could rust.

thanks

I'm slightly concerned about that too with my TP irons....... So far, no issues... But I've only had them for a few months.

The only places my irons get dirty are on the face and sole of the club head. So I just dip a brush in hot water and then scrub the sole and the face.

I have the Burner Plus irons and I was told the best way to do this was to use soapy water and let them air dry. I put hot water in a bucket with soap and use a brush to get in the grooves. Then I rinse them off and dry them with a towel and then let them sit over night to air dry.

Air dry them overnight. I usually face the cavity down so the water drains and then face them up so the rest of teh water can evaporate. If your really anal, take your hair drier to the cavity.

Good info...I just got my R7's yesterday! Regarding the grips...assuming they are nothing exotic, and the standard TM rubber grips, should some mild soap and water be fine?

Regards,

just joined the r7 club. I am ecstatic with these and think I have finally found a set that will suit me well. With my old irons (and I assume with these) I usually take some hot water, mild dish soap, and an old toothbrush to clean them. I rinse with water, let them air dry for a bit, then dry them off with terry cloth. Lately this has been done after every round, I have become somewhat obsessed with cleaning my clubs (it's like I am wiping away all of the bad strokes I just hit so they don't carry over to the next round, too bad the bad strokes are always there though...)

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
