I've looked into it but haven't pulled the trigger. Here in the states, I found a place called restoration golf and they seemed to do really good work. I'd have them re-chromed and regrooved and it would be around 40 a club.

Probably depends on where/how you get it done. Are they worn down beyond what a $5 golf shop groove sharpener can do?

I haven't seen any groove sharpeners over here.

The only one's I've seen online are in the 15-20 euro price-range (including P&P;). I'll try ring up the store today.

Plenty of sharpeners on eBay. Check they don't make your grooves illegal.

    • Day 297 6-28 Got some swings in early this morning, busy day. Worked on low point control, skills work. 
    • Day 2: played 18. Driving was decent to good. Approach play was meh. Short game meh, and putting solid. Added up to an 81. Needed more tap in pars and more birdie chances. 
    • Day 8 (28 Jun 26) - Worked with face position at address and overall setup - open/neutral/closed - and setting up for resulting shot shapes - using 8i and hard foam balls.  It was abbreviated as the thunder began to rumble. Got in about 20 swings before calling it. 
    • Tale of two swings.  Swing 1: Slightly outside takeaway (hands move outside of target line) only to allow trail elbow over collapsing at P4. Doesn't take much to overdo it for the trail elbow collapse to only further exaggerate. That's death. Swing 2: Hands stay slight in at takeaway for a much better trail elbow condition at P4. This is a hard sell from an instinct perspective. More focus on un-weighting and re-weighting of lead foot to unlock a bit more mobility of hips and torso. A major flaw that creeps up often is me swinging flat footed and becoming overly armsy-collapsy as a result. Got reminded of this the hard way during my 2nd round match for club net championship. Was cruising along 2up until I made the turn. Then lost the swing for next five holes. Andy was playing good enough to capitalize. By the time I regained my swing on 16th, it was too late. Even Andy was like "That was a gift". Obviously that stings because have played well enough lately. Should have closed him out of the game comfortably with a few holes to spare. Shoulda woulda coulda. Tough lesson. Damn. P.S. I know the swings look very similar but trust me there is a difference.
