Golf clubs for 9 year old
Question
Hi -- my son is 51 inches tall (orange us kids). I was trying to decide between the kids ultra-light vs the tour series. He has a beautiful swing with a great full rotation finish- his biggest problem is keeping his eye on the ball. He is in the blue US kids set now. The us kids website says for kids over 54 mph -- should do the tour series. I have no idea how to decide that. His swing is definitely not rocket speed -- but it is a good clip.
1) do you think the US kids clubs are the right next set and if so, 2) which series -- ultra light or the "tour"?
Many thanks,
Paul
Answer
Paul,
I am glad that you are in the process of getting clubs that are best suited for your son. Too many children play with clubs that are not quite the best for their games.
The best way to decide on what clubs are going to be the best for your son is to have his swing analyzed. A good club fitter will be able to tell you his swing speed as well as what length is best for him.
Good up the good work dad.
