In order to get paint to stick to the plastic you need to "Break the gloss". It is similar to re painting a car. I would use a semi coarse steel wool (like 00 or 000)and run it over the entire surface. Then use a flat white primer (Krylon Fusion flat white) and completely paint the club. Use a minimum of two good coats. from there, paint it whatever colors you need.
Also, you need to buy a tack cloth. Use the tack cloth to wipe the steel wool residue off of the club. Also between coats you need to tack off any dust that may have settled on to the club. Dust is the greatest enemy of a good finish. Also, the final coat will only look as good as the first coat. So, take you time and do it right!
