Callaway md4 raw wedges crazy amounts of rusting

Mods.. please delete this inadvertent duplicate post.

 

This past June I bought the 50, 55 and 60 degree Callaway md4 raw wedges. I was new to the raw wedge thing and I am absolutely blown away by how much these things rust.

I consider myself pretty knowledgeable about all things equipment but I never would have thought that these wedges would rust as much as they do.

I tried using bartenders friend on all three of them and while it did help, the rust came back in droves.

I'm not complaining because at the end of the day it was my decision, but I don't think I'll ever go that route again.

 

Live and learn!

Most people who buy raw clubs want rust...and lots of it. You bought raw clubs...and don't want rust. There isnt much you can do. EMBRACE THE RUST!

RAW wedges are designed to rust....sell them and go back to Chrome, or embrace the rust.

 

Helps if not put away wet, too. Fertilizer from the course can accelerate rust as well, so still have to clean them.

I’ll never understand why people want clubs to rust. And I’ve owned a Trusty Rusty!

 

I also have a Bettinardi putter that’ll rust if if don’t look after it, but it gets wiped after every shot when it’s wet or there’s dew on the ground. And it gets a WD40 every few rounds. And it doesn’t rust if you do that. Leave it wet after a round in its headcover and it rusts like a bugger.

If you want to clean them up, buy some CLR (it is a liquid cleaner you can get at Walmart for like $5) and soak the heads in it for 10 minutes and then rinse/scrub with scotch brite pad. It will clean the rest right up.

Rust is best. One day I will have some raw irons not just wedges
