    Default Cost of repairs, club building

    Wondering how much people have been charged for repairs, re-shafting, etc. Maybe we could make a reference post so people have an idea of what to expect, or who to avoid for over charging.

    Thinking of getting a shaft pulled from a Ping Rapture V2, I bought a Proforce V2 for cheap when I ordered some other things from Golfsmith. I have pulled steel shafts myself (the rough way, heating it and hand pulling/twisting) and have ferrules and the proper epoxy, I do my on grips as well. Only thing I can't do is pull a graphite shaft because I don't have a shaft puller.

    So what have people been charge for just a shaft pull?

    Thanks

    I know I stopped using Tarzan Grip.

    One thing I am paranoid about is club heads coming off, not really a laughing matter when it hits somebody.

    I usually pay a box of 36 Ferro Rochers for an extract and install.

    This makes Mrs and mini-Clubfitters happy, thus allowing Mr Clubfitter more time on the course.

    I charge $3.30 for a standard shaft pull, unless of course it's a Callaway club...

    It is hard to count the true cost from a visit to Tourfit.

    Isn't it funny that the jokes come from the guy who NEVER seems to have money in his wallet when he visits (or beer)!

    (Feel free to get it done elsewhere...)
