Watch my full ‘Between 2 Bags’ podcast series here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJjeneA2jsCxrFU4oi63MKqSVX2TrYsXa&si=CC6q5XzjmjQDTg5n Picked up this Ping Pal putter from the 1970s at a Goodwill in Southern California and took on the challenge of restoring it. After watching some golf club restoration videos, I knew this classic putter had potential. Using a restoration solution of white vinegar, water, and salt, I soaked the head for five days. A toothbrush and fine steel wool helped strip away years of patina. I carefully cleaned the stamping, applied fresh white paint to the cavity, and polished it with Club Doctor.
The result? A beautifully restored vintage Ping putter that’s ready for the greens again. Restoring old clubs gives me a sense of calm, almost like a meditation – it’s as much a part of my love for golf as playing the game itself. If you come across vintage clubs, especially a Ping Pal, don’t hesitate to give them a new life. Stay tuned for a full video of the restoration process, and let’s talk about how preserving golf history can enhance your appreciation for the game.

Great video. A couple of questions. What kind of tape is that? What type of paint is that, and what did you wipe it with? Thanks again!
Nicely done. If you dont tape the hosel, what happens to the chrome shaft? And how does the golf club polish compare to car polish?
Hellooo I'm doing this with my ping 1-A putter. Question do you replace the vinegar water and salt everyday?
Awesome vid! Starting my first restó this week!
What tool are you using to remove the paint and clean up the lettering?
