I clean my clubs after every game and coat the shafts with a cloth wet with WD-40 (or Duck Oil).

To get rid of rust pitting try this:

Get a bowl full of Coca Cola and a piece of tin foil.

Scrunch up the tin foil into a loose ball.

Dip the foil into the Coke

Rub the wet foil on the shaft. Most spots should disappear (exceot large imperfections.

The phosphoric acid in the Coke starts dissolving the aluminium in the foil, which is deposited onto the steel (the acid conditions form a very weak electrical cell) and looks upon first inspection like chrome.

Failing that, Brasso usually does the trick to get rid of the brown staining at least.
