I hit a hidden pebble under my ball this past weekend that left a decent gouge in my 8 iron. It won't affect play at all, but these are the first set of irons I purchased new and are less than a year old. I want to keep them looking as good as new for as long as possible.

Sanding is not the problem to smoothing out the ding. A grinder, belt sander or even a file can do the job .

Thanks, I will probably start with low impact sanding to be safe. I wonder how that would impact the DBM finish on my Cobras since they are supposedly chemically implanted...

I understand where you're coming from, but dings are going to happen regardless. If you really want it gone or at least smooth it out so it doesn't seem as obvious, a file will do the trick. No idea what it will do to a DBM finish, but that's what I'd do if I wanted to get rid of a ding.

I've never worried or had a cause of concern from nicks, dings, chatter on my irons. They're made to take a beating by the very nature of what they are designed to do. I get that equipment can be expensive and players wanting to protect their investment and such. But, I also look at my nicked and dinged irons as being sufficiently broken-in.
