Full Restoration of a Titleist Vokey

[@wallys3558]

Bruh! That’s reincarnation not restoration

[@BradMeehan]

What a great comment. I'm pinning this one to the top! Thanks, man.

[@johnnyhunter]

Not going to lie; I would have been happy with the restoration halfway thru the video haha. But you just kept going and going. Amazing work, though. Incredible work!

[@BradMeehan]

Thanks for the compliment!

Nice and shiny, easier to find after I toss it in the bush after a shank 👌🏼

[@BradMeehan]

One guy here said he got his club from his dad as a reward for climbing up a tree to get it down.

[@eabiisme]

By far my favorite gc iron restore. Checked all the boxes.

[@byronhester3956]

Your vision and ability to find the treasure and beauty buried beneath the rust, dirt and scratches continues to amazing me! Incredible work sir!

[@BradMeehan]

Thank you, my friend! I'm glad you liked it.

[@PVCGolf]

This is the exact wedge I still play with. I’ve tried replacing it a few times. But I always go back to it. Great video.

[@tylersmithgall]

Bro, this was one of the most satisfying videos I’ve ever seen. Amazing work!!

[@BradMeehan]

Honestly, comments like this are the reason I keep making these. I really appreciate that you took the time to write this to me.

Thanks for the nice compliment. You guys keep me going. I'd love it if you shared one with your golf mates.

I have a 54 degree vokey wedge in terrible condition given to me by a well aged senior player, wish I could do what you do! Amazing work sir!

[@jamiestidham930]

That's some excellent work. I use to think i would want to restore some of this stuff, but that's not restoration, that is a true art form

[@BradMeehan]

Thank you. This is my art. I love reviving them. It's also pretty simple, so don't hesitate to try it. Happy to answer any questions.

[@kamcg1049]

Thank you for showing the restoration process, the end result is stunning. So beautiful, it would be a shame to use.

[@Nick-m7w]

Best restoration I’ve seen to date .. great work 💪🏻😊

[@BradMeehan]

Thank you!

[@jonlanier_]

That was so touching, I wanted to cry at the end.

[@BradMeehan]

Like, a full cry-face? I'd love a pic of that to add to the thumbnail.

[@jonlanier_]

@@BradMeehan LOL... not quite. I'm 60 years old and have been playing golf since I was 5 years old. Made it to the USGA Mid-Amateur when I was 35. I love seeing these old clubs brought back to life! I have a set of '71-'72 Wilson Fluid Feels. Like what Johnny Miller used in his US Open win. I'd love to see those restored. I'd display them in my office. Now that, would make me full face cry.

[@nolimitsgolf]

WOW.......that was so soothing strangely enough, that is crazy !! I honestly sat here watching this in awe, what great work 👏 👍

[@BradMeehan]

Thank you! Mission accomplished! The goal of this channel is to show you tutorials on how to do this at home, then sit back, relax, and see the steps unfold in a relaxing, soothing way. 😀 There is plenty more to see, so i hope you stick around, friend.

Very nice Brad. My all time favorite clubs are wedges and I love them when they are all rusted out, but if I was every going to hand one off and let someone get their own feel and history, this is a perfect starting point. Keep up the great work!

[@BradMeehan]

Thanks, Matt. I'm making a video soon on how to make a club raw (and rusty). They look so cool like that.

[@usersll226]

These are the best wedges Vokey made. He needs to bring them back with the conforming grooves. The SM line finally got the look and feel bank with the 9 series(for the most part).

[@jamestattoo4535]

[@rbee4387]

Hey! I am an electrochemist as both a hobbyist and part of my profession. I would highly recommend you look into chrome dip plating. With this, you refurbish the clubs to their original coating. Now there is a high level of procaution that is needed but it is within your level of skill no doubt.

[@BradMeehan]

I'm fascinated by this. Can you point me to a product I can research? I'd love to learn this. Is this the same as the Caswell triple chrome method, or something entirely different (and simplified)?

[@rbee4387]

@@BradMeehan so there is two types of methods possible: chromium iii then chromium vi. Criii is for decorative applications and “safe” and Crvi is usually for more corrosion resistance and durability; much less safe. I would say the Caswell Triple Chrome method is a good way to apply decorative chrome for more of a wall decorative club/set. I’d give the club like 2 rounds before the chrome is removed. If you want to plate the clubs with a more durable coating, chromium vi electroplating would be your best bet. Do your research and look up chrome vi tanks and management of the tanks to keep them from falling out of working order and if you do try stuff without proper safety, understand there are risks.

[@Themindisall41]

@@BradMeehan I sure will! Just got a used set that I’m soaking the clubs as we speak. So you said if we don’t have the electric equipment we can use sand paper correct what grit ?

[@BradMeehan]

@rezamasomithemindisall9859 Hell yeah. If I'm being honest, starting like this, with no tools, will teach you more and make your clubs look 100 times better in the end. Start with like 160 or 200. Sand until every single shiny dot on the surface is gone. You'll see what I'm talking about when you're doing it. Then go to 400, 600, etc up to however shiny you want it. The higher the number, the finer it gets. Don't skip ahead too fast or it will bury a scratch under the finish. It will look like a mirror if you're patient. Also, just disappear for a few hours and enjoy yourself. It's great (free) therapy.

[@Themindisall41]

@@BradMeehan amazing feed back I appreciate that very much! as I totally agree that it can be therapeutic as I love carpentry and working with my hands and etc. I know I would definitely love this! One last question the last part that you finish off on the middle of the club what are you blasting at the club? The finisher part!? You taped everything and what is that gun and the chemical in it? It was that just air spray at high velocity ?

[@BradMeehan]

@rezamasomithemindisall9859 it's a cheap handheld sandblaster. They sell glass beads or more coarse media that shoots out of the gun. I use aluminum oxide. Check out the equipment links to see one. It's a cheap alternative to a blasting cabinet.

Fantastic stuff my man! Being born in 1996, I’ve never seen a 258 look like that ever. What a gorgeous club… truthfully much better looking than the new SM series.

[@BradMeehan]

Thank you. That's what fun about the channel is we get to see what clubs look like when they were sitting on the shelf - something most of us weren't alive to see or didn't care about then.

[@trippvogel1781]

Very impressive. Excellent work

[@scwhitebirdy]

Club is beautiful. Before you hit the groove section of the face with the media blaster, do you hit it with all the wheels and compounds?

[@BradMeehan]

@@scwhitebirdy I do, but minimally. Just want to get a nice base before I blast it. The sandblaster hides some imperfections, but you get a better finish if you smooth it out a touch
