FAQ

Q: What are the benefits of kids golf clubs versus regular golf clubs?

A: Kids’ golf clubs are designed just for juniors: Lighter weight and fit to length due to varying kid heights.

Q: What is the benefit of lighter-weight clubs?

A: Whether a kid is just starting or progressing in the game, they are constantly growing and getting stronger. Properly weighted clubs can assist the junior to perform consistently. Too light or too heavy and the junior will struggle. Proper weighting is key.

Q:What am I getting when I purchase kids golf clubs?

A: A golf club designed specifically for juniors. There is no compromise in the technology, especially when it comes to the products geared towards more advanced junior golfers.

Q: Which is more important: Value or quality?

A: The answer ultimately depends on the kid golfer. If they are a beginner, there are options that combine value and quality. If they are more serious, there are hidden gems packed with value and quality. If they are competitive and striving for performance, cost might take a back seat to quality.

      I got my 6 years old boy the Golphin clubs and he likes those. Driver is solid and the oversized heads on SW and 7-iron are confidence inspiring, the putter head is rather small but sits nice and does the job well. Overall great solid product designed in Scotland

      My 7 year old son is a left handed golfer, and I had read about EPEC golf and saw that left handed clubs were supposed to be offered in the spring of 2020, I was excited about the upgrade program they offer as your kid grows. But if you go to the website and actually try to purchase a left-handed set, they aren’t available. I reached out to the company and was informed that they currently do not have left handed sets available. Because of COVID-19 and not being able to get the tooling from overseas to manufacture left handed sets at this time and hope to be able to do it later, maybe spring 2021. That being said, you should probably update the review above to reflect that information since one of the pros listed for 2020 is “available in left hand” when that actually isn’t true. It also makes me think that this is really just a list of kids clubs available in the market with minimal actual research and testing that was done, and the rankings don’t actually mean anything (which Chris S also asks about in a comment). Not to sound overly critical here, but your reputation is built on providing strictly “Data driven” information with thousands of hours of research devoted to information, but that doesn’t appear to be the case in this article. The information provided in this article is really no more helpful than the lists that Golf.com, Golf Digest, TGW or other lists you can find with a simple google search of “Best kid golf club sets.” I was super excited to see that My Golf Spy had an article on kid clubs based on the other great content and data you usually provide, but the content here was thoroughly disappointing. And honestly, marketing this with emails as “The best kids golf clubs 2020” in your email blasts and calling it that on the website will taint the “Best of” or “Most Wanted” labels you use a little bit going forward.

      Don’t dismiss lightly used premium sets. Some parents buy these and their kids outgrow them before they’ve been hit even a half dozen times.. Grips, crowns, etc. are in almost new condition.

      I bought my children (who share) used Pings for less than any new set listed here. I’m sure when they’re done with them, I’ll get back about what I paid.

      Old Nike sets with squared heads have strong resale value. They seem like a good offer but are hard to find.

      I recently got my 9 year old Ping ProdiG clubs. They are expensive. However, they are truly nice clubs. Additionally, they can be reshafted/regripped for free one time which should make them last a few years. They are $800 but should last four years ($200 per year).

      The reality is, if you want your child into golf, you have already committed to spending a lot of money. Golf lessons, practice, and actually playing is not cheap (for adults or kids). The $200 per year is not that much in comparison. My son had the $100 Top Flite set from Golf Galaxy for three years. He has outgrown them and proven to me his interest and his overall ability/potential such that the Ping set is worth it.

      The biggest thing with getting these clubs is not the cost but whether your child can take care of them and not lose them. I suspect that occurs for most kids around 9-11 years old.

      In particular, the driver is nearly as nice as my Ping G410.

      The best kids set or irons is a old set from goodwill or one of your old set in the garage. Cut them down and re-grip them. . I’ve don’t it twice and the kids loved them. The cost was about $80 You can get a old high loft Ping , Callaway womens driver for $25. or less;.
      .I was 21 years old before I had my first matching set of Irons Wilson x21 plus and Wilson staff persimmon woods . Children should prove they need a news set of irons before spend big bucks and stop growing too.

      BULLSHIT! That creates kids with swings that are nearly “un-fixable.” Too heavy, too stiff.. this is crap that makes kids soccer players, baseball players, lacrosse players, swimmers. Anything that has kid sized options. Get a Clue

      Lighten up Gebby. Pretty sure every pro on tour over the age of 25 used cut down adult clubs growing up.

      My 5 year old left handed son is on his second set of USKG ultralights. I looked at the topflites but I seriously think that the shafts were stiffer than my clubs. My right handed 7 year old daughter is on her second set of ultra lights as well. We are USKG junkies at this point, but EPEC and Flynn sound intriguing as well. It’s great to have options. I remember lugging around cut down clubs that were 30 years old when I got them. These kids have it made!

      What people don’t realise with the PING PRODI G clubs is that as your child grows, Ping will replace the shafts with no charge as part of the service. So the inital outlay isn’t the cheapest, but you’re almost getting two sets for the price of one.

      They are absolutely brilliant too, as you’d expect with PING. My son has dropped 14 shots in 8 months using the PING PRODI G irons and woods (with a Taylor Made Spider putter). You get what you pay for folks.

      I’m the father of two girls, one 19 and one 13. The 19 year old played several sets of US Kids Ultralights and then the US Kids Tour Series until her sophomore year of high school, and then we had her fit for a set of Titleist AP1s, which she still plays (when she plays, during the summer now).

      The 13 year old has gone through three sets of US Kids Ultralights as well. She outgrew her last set and grabbed her mom’s old Adams A7’s and loves them. They’re still a bit long for her, but they’re super light and she hits them well. Her teacher said that since she’s in a growth spurt, she might as well stick with these until she grows a bit more and overpowers the shafts. A full-sized lady’s driver was a bit hard to control for her, so I had a Maltby 890 built to 42″ and she’s hitting it 20 yards longer than anything else she’s hit.

      In addition to a golf dad, I’m a volunteer coach at The First Tee, and my daughter plays in junior tournaments. I see tons of USKG, some Top Flite, and a set or two of Cobra. We have several sets of the tour Edge HL junior clubs as loaners, and they seem to be perfectly adequate. I have not seen any Flynn, but I read good things about them. I’d never heard of EPEC before now.

      Both my kids started golfing this spring. The US Kids Ultralights have been great. I highly recommend.

      I have two boys that have played competitively for 10 plus years. I have owned US Kids ultralights and tour series, Wilson’s and Flynn Golf. The only ones on this list I haven’t heard of are EPEC Golf.

      I’ve been told the Cobras are crap. The new Pings are awesome but so expensive.

      My younger son who is extremely competitive has been playing the Flynn Golf VT Max Irons, Fairway Woods, and Hybrid for several years. He has a Cobra F8 Junior Driver which is great because of the free shaft upgrade program.

      My major recommendation for junior clubs is that shorter is better. Better to be undersized then oversized. Also lighter is better than heavier. Kids need speed. Heavy clubs do a kid no good. The goal is to have your kids love the game and want to play for life. It has to be fun for them. Cutting down an old set is the quickest way to get your kids to hate the game. Make them part of the process, they will Love it.

      The Flynn’s are great because you can pick a shaft color and grip color you want. Also each head comes in 3 weights and you can send them a swing video of your child and they will recommend the correct swing weight.

      Buy your kid the set that is going to get them to want to play with you (assuming that’s what you want). For a 1st set you can’t go wrong with the US Kids Ultralights.

      I did a lot of research on a lot of these clubs a few months back when getting my son his first set. We ended up going with the US Kids Ultra Lights.

      Something not mentioned with either of the US Kids sets is that if you buy directly from them you get a rewards program type deal. For every 5 clubs you buy, you get a sixth club for free. Pretty cool as the squids build a bag or move up in color size.

      As a dad of a 2 year old, I was excited about this article. But the formatting makes it a bit weird. The article was definitely an overview of what is out there, but not much else. A better(actual) ranking would have been appreciated.

      Just from my research, I’ve come to belive US Golf, Flynn and Ping are the top choices, and the top flite/cobra sets are heavy and not worth using..

      But mostly, having Ping #16 and a set of Top Flites #3 just looks odd. If the numbers aren’t a ranking, why have them?

      Great, useful article. Whenever I hear a buddy say that his child is interested in golf and he’s going to cut down some 1989 steel shaft irons for the kid, I cringe!!!
