Kids Golf Clubs - Not Your Dad's Clubs Any More!

Kids Golf Clubs

Just why should you buy the smaller sized Kids Golf Clubs? You may have started out playing golf as I did, with a pair of my Dad's cut down adult size clubs. At that time, there were no Juniors clubs. Now that I think about it, I wonder I even stayed in the game, as the clubs were huge and heavy, and totally off balance. Kid's golf has come a long way since then, and you can give your kid a real head start with a set of Junior clubs that are made with the younger golfer in mind. Remember, Tiger Woods is on record as saying "The most important element in learning and playing the game is using fitted golf clubs".

Junior clubs are perfect for the newest golfer in your house who wants to take up and master golf. These Junior clubs are a great option for the Junior player. If you look around, you can get quality equipment for a lot less money than you would for a set of the more expensive adult clubs. Today there are a lot of golf clubs made for Junior players, and many of them are very high quality, reliable, durable, and still at a great price. Believe me, I know from experience that your child will play better with a set of clubs that are specially made for a kids smaller stature.

If you are going to invest in a new set of clubs, you should go for well-known companies that specialize in Junior clubs. A few companies who really specialize and have taken the time to research the difference between adult clubs and Juniors clubs are U.S.Kids Golf, Nike and La Jolla.

Many of these clubs are available on the Internet, and usually clubs on line are a much better price point than your local store. When you go searching on the Internet for Kids golf clubs, make sure that the site offers a full guarantee, and that includes a full refund of clubs and accessories if you need one. Confirm the price of shipping. Some companies will give you free shipping if your order is over a certain amount. Make sure that you would rather not spend that $50.00 shipping charge on something tangible, i.e. another club, or gloves or any of the thousand products that have been put out there for Junior golfers. Also be aware that often these companies have seasonal promotions in line with big golf tournaments and events like the US Open. This is when you can really get deals on clubs and other golf equipment.

If you are unsure about what to buy, search around different sites, as they are a wealth of information. You will notice that different companies size clubs differently. La Jolla breaks down its clubs by ages, in this case groups aged 5-7 and 10-12. Nike sizes clubs by height, as does U.S. Kids Golf. Check out Pinemeadow.com who offer a nice starter package that you might want to check out for the younger set. Which should you buy? This is entirely up to you. Search through their sites and see what you personally think will fit your budget and your child.
