Golfworks has an excellent guage for $149.99
You might find something on ebay.
I have used this for years and am very happy with it

The gauge I have is a previous model of this one:  http://www.golfsmith.com/products/299687/Golfsmith/Professional_Clubhead_Measuring_Gauge

Picked it up on a friends and family sale a few years back when they used give big discounts.  It's quite accurate as I've compared it on heads that were measured off a "green machine" which I believe is the gold standard for gauges.

I use my Mitchell L&L machine.  It would be nice to have a separate gauge for double-checking irons and measuring woods and hybrids.

That's why I have a seperate one.  I don't care what anyone says, loft and lie machines cannot be counted on to give accurate measurements.  They are not designed to be such and cannot be guaranteed to be accurate.

I agree with this and I have had several of each.
