Hi All,

Can anyone suggest a way to clean the sharpie marker marks I have on my clubheads? It's really annoying and I want to remove them.

Thanks!

Hi All,

The what? Is this from hitting a marked ball?

Try acetone (main ingredient in nail polish remover), but keep that shit away from anything plastic!!!

Yes, it's from hitting marked balls. I'll try the nail polish remover. I can keep it away from plastic, but I may inhale it all.

Just kidding and thanks for your help...

While they may wear off in time, I'm looking to clean them so I can sell them, as I got another set of irons...

Alcohol of some sort.

You can also paint over it with a sharpie that can be erased. Like those used on white boards. Paint the permanent marks with this eraser sharpie, then clean it all off. Works great.

Mine always come off with an old toothbrush and cold water. I'm a little anal-retentive about cleaning my irons after every round though, so there are never really any that get baked in. :)

I've never had a problem just wiping them off right after the shot. Wet the club face with your water bottle, wipe it off with your towel. None issue.

Plain old rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol). Get it at any pharmacy. It won't hurt anything else. Mine mostly come off with a damp towel, but if not, then I use alcohol.

I assume Goo Gone is the same as Goof Off? Either way, Goof Off works.

      Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.

      New, College Golfer Trying to Go Pro

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.

      Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.
