Will this towel drag on the ground?

Stubby is sized at 16×24 to reduce drag risk compared to oversized towels, especially on carry bags. Placement still matters, but the compact footprint helps.

What is the scrub pad for?

It’s for breaking up dried mud and sand in grooves before you wipe clean with the microfiber. Think “loosen first, wipe second.”

Where is the magnet and how does it attach?

The magnet sits under the silicone patch. It’s designed to dock to common metal surfaces like clubs and other magnetic-friendly spots. For a guaranteed bag dock point, use the Landing Pad.

Do I need a Landing Pad?

If your bag’s magnetic surfaces are inconsistent (or basically non-magnetic), the Landing Pad gives you a steel-core docking spot so the towel re-docks the same way every time.

Yes. Wash cold on gentle/low spin and air dry. Avoid high heat; hot dryers can degrade microfiber performance over time.

Watch a golfer test it

Real speed. Real routine.

Scrub → Wash → Dry

Three steps. No thinking. Clean gear without slowing the round.

1. Scrub

Loosen what wiping can’t remove. The scrub pad applies focused friction to break packed debris free.

2. Wash

Rinse grime away. The wet pocket keeps mud off your grips and hands.

3. Dry

Restore clean contact. A dry ball flies true and rolls true.

Make it automatic: Instant Access Upgrade

Stop chasing your towel. Give it a home.

Why access is the multiplier

Access friction kills routines. If the towel doesn’t re-dock to the same spot every time, you stop using it. The Landing Pad creates a guaranteed, steel-core docking point so Stubby is always where your hand expects it.

Who it’s for

Walkers: compact size reduces drag risk.
Fast players: quickest clean-and-dock routine.
Minimalists: function without chaos.

Who it’s not for

Maximum-coverage riders: if you need a huge wet zone, choose The 40.
Clip lovers: if you prefer dangly towels, this system isn't for you.

Proof & Method

What we test

We test magnet strength (retention), scrub pad effectiveness (cleaning), ease of access (usability), and stitching quality (durability). Reliability beats marketing hype.

Why rinse beats smear

Wiping dirt on a dry towel just moves it around. The wet wash pocket rinses debris off the club so you don't transfer mud to your hands or grips.

Why docking beats clipping

Clips require two hands or awkward fumbling. Magnetic docking is instant and one-handed, removing friction from your routine so you actually use the towel.

Care & wash instructions

Wash cold on gentle cycle. Air dry or tumble dry low. Do not use high heat, as it can degrade microfiber performance. Magnet is sealed.

Why Magnetic Towels Fall Off (It’s Physics)

If your magnetic golf towel keeps dropping off the cart rail, it’s not bad luck. Round rails create a geometry mismatch, vibration creates shear force, and aluminum frames kill magnetic hold. See the full breakdown.
