    I recently walked in a job with no equipment serviced or sharpened. Does anyone know of a course that grinds reels instead of sending them to toro and Jac. I have 6 Toro greens reels, and 5 Jac fairway reels.
    Im willing to drive a little to get them done.
    Thanks,
    Virgil

    Consider contracting with another club as well. They can make some money while saving you some as well.

    I have done that as well at my last facility.

    Depending on the club we ended up trading parts and goods, as the superintendent was afraid a check in the clubhouse would never make it to them. My bosses were good with that.

    Worked out great for all of us, and they did a super job at grinding.

    Give Lee Redman, CGCS a call. He knows every one in that area.
