Junior Golf Clubs-What to do?
30 years ago there were not too many sets of junior golf clubs real find, and there was not that many people buying components and making their own clubs either. I found a person who do clubs and had cut old for my two children. My son must have been barely 3 years, and his 9 iron has not shown much metal tree: everything was taken! The head was extremely heavy, and he could not really swing, it sort of picked it up and hacked the ball, as the club was an ax! The children were both fun however, and they were always on when I suggested going to the beach driving to hit balls. These days parents have many more options, they can find decent junior golf clubs at surprisingly reasonable prices.
Make the right
Earl Woods always made sure that Tiger had clubs it was when he was growing up. With the clubs that are too long or too heavy and too large with handles, the junior golfer is going to have to make adjustments just swing will probably cause bad habits that are difficult to correct later
Club Length
This is the main consideration, and sufficient to say that your junior golfer should not play with clubs that are too long. Of course, you want your children to "grow in them, but if they must choke to over 2 inches, they should change their swings. Your kids will probably only 2-3 years out of a set up junior golf clubs, then you should set this out if you want your children to play and practice golf. Unless you buy a game Calloway junior or a whole Another great brand, new clubs can be acquired at very reasonable prices. More on that shortly.
Club and weight of the head of the Club
Do not your junior golfer what I did to my son. Ask the clubs that are the correct weight. Junior sets are normally lighter graphite shafts flexible and appropriate size of the club head and weight.
Handles
Young people need handles on their little golf junior meet their hands. Fortunately thin handles for children are readily available these days, and most decent junior groups use these.
Club Price New
A quick Internet search shows a number of interesting options. AMF had a set of junior golf clubs for 3-5 years for about $ 80. All was a wood, hybrid clubs, irons and a putter. The clubs had light weight flexible graphite shafts and golf bag and a few other accessories were included. They also had sets for 5-8 years and 9-12 years for the money a little more. However, I saw a junior set for 9-13 Calloway age of sale for $ 240.
Why not Ebay?
A quick search on Ebay for "golf clubs junior has seen hundreds of sales auction, most of those for brand new clubs. If you find a reliable seller, you can get excellent deals. I saw a brand new game for the 5-9 age group with a high bid of only $ 15, and there were only 15 minutes from the end of the auction! So for this first set to determine whether the child will be interested in playing golf, Ebay might be a good solution.
Conclusion
My little son is one and a half years now, and I'm already thinking about taking him to the driving range in about a year. It will be more fortunate than his uncle (my son) was at his age, and he'll have junior golf clubs fit reasonably well and he can actually swing. I can not wait to see the hit a few shots of fire rise into the air a bit for the first time. The sooner he can accomplish that and experience success, the more he will delight not only to play golf as a kid, but throughout his life.
