I was browsing GolfSmith.com and found a neat $15 class they offer on Saturday mornings as an intro into building golf clubs. I just wish I lived near a store! I figured I'd tell you about it anyway in case you do.
For an introduction into clubmaking, attend a clubmaking workshop at your local Golfsmith store for only $15! The Golfsmith program is a one-of-a-kind experience, offering expert instruction in a hands-on working environment.
Complimentary materials include the Golfsmith Clubmaking How-To DVD ($14.99 value). Also included are the components needed to build a steel-shafted sand wedge. It's all yours to keep!
Classes are taught at most stores on Saturday mornings. Class size is limited so please contact your store for dates, times and availability.
Or for more information call 1-800-456-3344.
That just sounds like some good old Saturday morning fun, and for only $15! Sounds like a perfect Christmas present to give every golfer you know.
Does anyone know of any other golf store doing something like this? I know there aren't Golfsmiths throughout the entire country. If anyone has done this- please post your experience. I've already talked to a couple people who have done it and it sounds great!

Used to be my favorite golf store. Now just like any other golf/tennis retailer.
