italianstallion Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 How much does reshafting a club cost? Just wanted to know. I'm looking for a new shaft to give me a lower tradjectory. Oh, how much does it cost for a regrip? Better yet, how can I do it myself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam2011 Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 thats like asking how much new tires cost. its all gonna depend on the shaft price, the work will most likely cost the same. if you want a lower trajectory, go with a heavier shaft, a shorter shaft, and/or a stiffer shaft. depending on how much you want to spend, it could be anywhere from $30-$300. regripping is a little bit easier than reshafting. i always tell people learn to do this yourself because theres no way in hell you should pay someone a labor charge to do it. its simple...get a few old clubs and a few cheap grips and give it a shot. theres instructions on golfsmith.com...youre gonna need grip tape, solvent (mineral spirits will work just fine), and a utility knife (a hook blade works best) to cut an old grip off. good luck and have fun with it! -sammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfernut78 Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 reshaft - i've got some irons and fairway woods done at the local edwin watts for $30/ per club + grip. that was labor and shaft (rifle 6.0). i got a driver done as well and it was $60 + grip and that too was labor and shaft (graf prolite 35). regrip - should learn to do it yourself, but if you are like me and live in an apartment its a little hard to get a good space to do it. local golfsmith is charging $1 and most pro shops are charging $2-3.

italianstallion Posted May 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2005 Thanks guys. Regrip I did myself, it was easy! I didn't change the shaft. The day after I posted that, I was hitting the ball great. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickBooras Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 It all depends on the shop. The smaller shops tend to charge a bit more, usually around $20 for labor on a standard reshaft, $30+ for a bore-thru. Golfsmith charges $17 for a standard one, $23 for a bore-thru. Just make sure you ask to see some of the club builder's work before you hand over your clubs. I wouldn't trust 95% of these "club builders" to regrip my set, let alone use heat/epoxy/knives near my precious clubs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
