When your retired you look for things to keep yourself busy.
I found some metal polish in my garage today so I tried it on one of my irons. It made such a difference I polished all of them. It made the crome finish really shine. My son thinks I'm loosing it!

I guess some folks think cruddy chrome is good looking. Great idea to polish chrome that you want to last.

It ain't bragging if you can do it.

I polish my irons from time to time. They are stainless but a good polishing with Mothers metal polish makes them look nearly new. Great way to keep your irons nice looking. Helps keep the value up also. I also wax the painted surface on my driver and hybrids. I'm not anal about it but I do keep them looking nice.

A special blend of salt water and battery acid should put a nice shine on those babies.

c'mon, he was only messing around. No need to be like that.

Just use any old polish, I used cola before and it worked great.

Those stainless clubs won't really shine with polishing like the OP's forged mild carbon steel irons. Stainless has more of a satin finish, so look for a stainless specific polish.

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
