My son has been playing since he was two. Originally i had a pieced set of the nike red jr irons and us kids golf driver and hybrid. He is 5 going on 6 now and I would like to get him a nice matching set. I have looked at the Calloway XJ and Ping Moxie sets. I'll measure him tonight but I am thinking he is around 42-48" tall. Any other nice sets out there for jr.'s? Or a nice set that isn't Ping/Calloway money...which isn't a big deal, I just want to explore all options. Those that have bought the ping/calloway models listed, how did your kids like them? Thanks

My son played the Ping Moxies and really like them. Felt important hitting Pings. Think I might still have them. I'll have to see what kind of shape they're in.

GD, if your looking to sell and they are in good shape, let me know thx!

I also found TW Black series for 9-11, 9 piece set. I am kinda leaning at that age group because he is tall for his age and probably won't use them til next year, this is a bday present in Aug.

    • Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)
    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
