OK, so Charlie Woods (Tiger’s new baby boy) is a little to young to start swinging clubs, but I’ve sure there are some other proud Dad’s out there who may be wondering…

How small should a child be to use Junior Clubs?

(Yes, and maybe some proud Mom’s too! )

Well, there are basically two ways to outfit a youngster who is just starting to play golf. You can either pass down the Parent’s clubs as is, cut them down to fit, or buy junior sized clubs. Either method can work just fine, depending upon how old the child is and his or her size.

Two important points must be kept in mind:

 First, a child should start with clubs that he can manage easily. Otherwise, he will have trouble learning a basic, rhythmic golf swing.

Second, he should start using adult clubs, which are cut down, as soon as he can handle them.

If the child is 10 years or younger, he should definitely be using junior clubs. They are very light, short, and balance to fit a young child this age. These clubs should be the ones he learns the fundamentals of golf with.

As soon as he shows some proficiency with these clubs, the child should start swinging adult clubs that are cut down to fit his height. This will probably happen around age 12. Once he has mastered the cut-down clubs and grows a little bit taller, adult clubs will be the next investment.

Of course, the child could also be a “she” and not a “he”. But the same basic guidelines apply.

Man is it getting tough out there…

Everywhere you turn, the economy is taking it’s
toll.

And Golf is no exception

Take the latest news from the LPGA tour - that The Ginn Resorts is
dropping their sponorship of this and the Champions tours.

Not only does this leave the touraments scrambling for sponsors but
it also takes millions of dollars in prize money off the table.

And Ginn also ended it’s sponorship of Christie Kerr.

Of course, golf is a game, but it’s also an industry.

And although I haven’t been keeping up that much with
the twists and turns of the stimulus plan, I don’t
think that golf is going to get much out of it.

Well, let’s see if I can help out a little…

If you know me, then you know that I build golf clubs
from components that I get exclusively from only two companies

One of those companies is Hireko Golf.

What you may not know is that they also build custom golf clubs!

OK, so why am I promoting a company that is basically the
competition?

Because my number one goal is to NOT to build your next set of
golf clubs. It’s to make sure you are an informed consumer of
golf clubs and accessories.

That’s why I’ve teamed up with Hireko Golf to offer you
a 10% discount on every custom golf club or set of clubs
that you buy from them.

How’s that for a golf stimulus plan?

Here’s all you need to do:
1. Go to the Hireko Golf website:
http://www.hirekogolf.com

2. Chose from their wide selection of great custom-built
golf clubs, each one 75% less than brand names.

3. When you checkout, use this coupon code to for your
10% discount:

Just a reminder to check out my new website…

I’m proud to announce a new addition to the Triangle Custom Clubs
website family. It’s a site where you can get golf carts and accessories
at some the lowest amounts possible.

http://www.trianglecustomclubs.com/golfcarts.html

Of course it’s focused on electric carts, but you’ll also find pull carts
there as well.

I plan to add much more to this family of websites, such as balls, bags,
videos, etc so it can be a one-stop-shop for golfers.

Take a look and let me know what you think…

As a beginner golfer, you might want to consider buying used golf clubs as a starter set. Of course if you have the money to burn then go ahead and get a new set of clubs, but used golf clubs are more than appropriate for the majority of newcomers to the game. There are quite a few people, especially kids and teenagers, who play for a while but lose enjoyment and end up wasting those new clubs.

The main factors when buying any type of clubs, even used golf clubs, is to make sure that they fit close to your height, arm length, and swing speed. When buying used golf clubs, another important factor is how all of the drivers, irons, and putters feel in your hands and when you swing.

 Used golf clubs can be found in most used sporting good stores, weekend garage sales, classified ads in the newspaper, and of course, through online shopping. You can even check some of the local pro shops at the nearest golf course for any available used golf clubs.

However, I would like to point out that if you can afford used clubs then you can probably afford a set of custom golf clubs from Triangle Custom Clubs.
Our clubs are custom made to your specifications, and are hundreds less than name brand clubs.

Another option would be to learn how to build your own golf clubs. If that interests you then take a look at this…
