So the only real club repair/building shops in our area closed down about a year ago. He was the only one to go to when you needed a club regripped, rehsafted etc. The only option in the area now is Dick's and in my area all they do is regripping.
A buddy and I have been giving serious thought to starting a little club repair/building gig on the side of our regular jobs. Our plan would be to go around to the local clubs and just pass out cards and get the word out that way as to what we are doing.
We both have some equipment but would need to pick up a few things, shaft extractor and a few other things. I don't plan on doing it to make a TON of money, mainly just to cover our costs and a little more. I just really LOVE tinkering on clubs, whether it be reshafting or even just regripping and there is NOBODY in this area that does it.
I guess what I am getting at is how hard is it to start up, what do I really need and what advice does anybody have to get going? I welcome all thoughts whether it be positive or lets call it constructive criticism.
