How to Keep Mizuno Clubs from Rusting

According to Mizuno, "Forged heads are made of mild carbon steel that is chrome plated. Once you start hitting balls, you scratch the surface of the chrome and eventually expose the raw steel to moisture and chemicals that can cause rust to form." Moisture and rust go together so clubs need to be kept dry at all times. Cleaning and drying clubs on a regular basis will deter rust from forming and extend their life, which is important as a set of clubs can be expensive.
