sounds like you have OCD. i dont really clean my sticks, i will wipe the dirt off but nothing more than that. game ticks are not supposed to be pretty, they are supposed to be practical and effective. but whatever floats your boat i guess.

i clean my heads before i ship them out for trades, or before i string them if they are reallydirty.
i've only hosed down my game stick 1 time cause it was sooooo muddy. and the mudd made the mesh really hard

When I re-string a players stick I always clean the head with soap, water and a scotch brite pad. Works great to remove the rubber from the sidewalls of those just learning the game. I also clean and re-tape shafts the same way. Just go light on the scotch brite pad or you will remove some color from the pole.

if there's mud globs on my stick i usually take a wire brush and brush them off and if they're filthy and i'm bored i'll take a wipe and polish the head up a little bit, but they're not perfect or anything

the only time i clean mine is after a rainy day when its all muddy. its good to get the mud off so it doesnt dry and get hard.

I don't clean mine, although when I get a new one or a newly strung one I do try to keep it clean as long as possible. I mean a nicely strung clean head just looks....NASTY...

i clean it out the nite before everygame with water and a rag, but before i restring it/dye it i use a brillo pad and give it a real cleaning, brillo pads + elbow grease can make a head look brandnew

I take my stick into the shower with me, in there i wash it and sometimes even condition it, i mean who doesn't like there stick smelling like a girl? but i do this maybe once or twice a week, i like a nice clean stick.

I Only clean em when:
They Get REALLY Dirty
Dying
Stringing
Selling
Some Retard Writes His Phone Number On His Sidewall Just In Case His Stick Gets Stolen, And Then Sells The Head.

I clean my heads after every other game, I am pretty ocd though......thats pretty much why i dye my heads-so that they dont look as dirty.

I clean my heads before trading/selling and when restringing them. I wash the mesh out after nasty games when my pockets become covered in nasty crap. that's about all. Oh, And I clean my shafts when they get nasty, usually just a quick whipe-down though.
