Preserving the Craft

Care & Maintenance:
Protecting Your Investment

The Caddy's Edge  ·  Toronto, Canada

Every set from The Caddy's Edge is handcrafted from premium Maple, Birch, or Poplar and sealed with an exterior-grade protective finish. Because these are genuine hardwood tools, a small amount of intentional care ensures they remain a centerpiece of your bag for years to come.

Your Finish

Exterior-Grade Protective Seal

Every stick leaves our Toronto workshop coated in a premium exterior-grade topcoat — the same class of finish used to protect fine woodwork against the elements. It is UV-resistant, moisture-repellent, and requires no oiling or re-coating under normal use.

UV Resistant Moisture Repellent No Oiling Required Range Ready
01

Post-Practice Wipe Down

After a session on the range or a round in the dew, use a soft, dry towel to wipe away any moisture, dirt, or grass clippings. Even with our premium exterior seal, keeping the wood dry is the single best habit for maintaining its integrity over time.

✦  A microfibre golf towel works perfectly — the same one you already use for your clubfaces.
02

Climate Control

Wood is a natural material that reacts to its environment. To prevent warping, avoid leaving your sticks in extreme conditions for prolonged periods — a sweltering car trunk in July or a freezing garage in January. When not in use, store them in a climate-controlled environment alongside the rest of your gear.

✦  Your alignment sticks deserve the same storage conditions as your clubs.
03

Cleaning the Details

If your custom laser-engraved logo or alignment markers collect debris from the range, clean them gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive brushes, steel wool, or harsh chemical cleaners that could mar the surface or lift the finish around engraved details.

✦  For stubborn debris in engraved lines, a soft-bristle toothbrush works well — no chemicals needed.
04

Embrace the Patina

Like a well-loved forged wedge, minor dings and surface scratches are a natural part of a tool that is being used at a high level. These marks of use should be embraced — they are proof of the work you're putting in on the range. The character that develops in a well-used set of handcrafted sticks is something no factory-produced alternative can ever replicate.

✦  Patina is not damage. It is history.
