Well guys, IndacupGolf is about 80% back to normal after the bad 2008, topped off with the floods….<o></o>
<o></o>
Here’s a recap and status report….<o></o>
<o></o>
Our PCS Class “A” Clubfitter is back doing clubs again…unfortunately, the company he worked for “in real life” was destroyed by the floods and not sure if they will re-open up again.<o></o>
<o></o>
Our <st1:city w:st="on"><st1>Cedar Rapids</st1></st1:city> location suffered no damage “per se”, the course did…but the shop was fine.<o></o>
<o></o>
Unfortunately, the <st1:state w:st="on"><st1>Monticello</st1></st1:state> location suffered substantial damage… the course will probably be a par 68 the rest of the season as we had to turn the Par 5’s into 4’s.<o></o>
<o></o>
All components and supplies that were 24” or less from the floor were damaged or “questionably” damaged (meaning I could not guarantee rust wouldn’t soon start in the steel components).<o></o>
<o></o>
Luckily, we have things organized so most popular items were at eye level and the less popular further to the ground….so we lost all the Harrison, Penley, some older UST shafts…old iron and wood components etc.<o></o>
<o></o>
We decided to donate these to the boys and girls high school teams as well as anyone locally who had a 3.0 GPA who wanted to learn golf.<o></o>
<o></o>
As of Friday, our server is back to 100% in service…it was wiped out in the flood and you will see many changes to our website over the next couple weeks….sadly, one of the changes will most likely me removing a company off our product line because unlike many of our vendors who came to support and show sympathy, one actually showed no concern and actually did what I consider highly unprofessional and and borderline immoral behavior.<o></o>
<o></o>
On the flip side, we will bring in and increase offerings from a couple other companies that rose to the occasion.<o></o>
<o></o>
You will also be seeing soon some very good specials to help me recoup some of my losses in an expedited manner.Not only did/are we experiencing a set back in sales, but product and facility damage is not covered by the insurance company.
There is NO flood insurance here.
