any ideas or recommendations for clubs for my son... he's 2 1/2 and 37" tall. Would like to buy him 3 clubs.

Is US Kids Golf the only option? all the other clubs are for 5 years and up.

Cheers, Allan

I just bought 3 Tommy Armour clubs for my daughter at the local sporting goods, Sports Authority.

They have single clubs (putter, iron, wood) that you buy based on height. The website adds a utility club. They look to be descent quality. The putter has an insert. The grips are small for small hands. So far my daughter is having a blast with her clubs.

In my bag:

One for slicing
One for hooking
One for knocking it in the cup

Nike makes some really solid junior clubs. I would recommend them over US Kids.

Edit: Sorry I didn't realize they were for 5 year olds, though it also says 50 in. or lower.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

Thanks, but living in Canada might make it a little more difficult to get them here

Are you sure, it seems their clubs start at 5 years old... if they made something for his age, I'd buy them in a heartbeat

Yeah you are right. But here are some Taylor Mades meant for kids 42-29 inches:

http://www.tgw.com/customer/category...6/refScid/1040 That's a little closer. I am hesistant to recommend US Kids because as a kid I hated them. To me they were way to whippy and way to light. But they seem to be the only ones who make clubs for kids under 42 inches. They makes a series of clubs for kids who are 39 inches ( http://www.uskidsgolf.com/eng/catego...pment/ul39tall ), but then the next step up is 45 inches.

Thanks for the feedback, I've never been sold on US Kids golf. I might wait until next season when he will probably be big enough for the Nike or Callaway clubs.

Probably just buy the shortest and lightest putter I can find and cut it down for him

?? He's 2.5 years old, pretty sure shaping the ball is not too high on his priority list.

I'm just hoping I can get him swinging his own clubs

They don't have them on the site any more, but they're pretty much the same as these: http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/pr...045301.4074795 They might just be rebranded version of the same, actually.

I guess saying the joke was going to be more effective than typing it. If he is so young, it will be hard to find a set short enough that is not plastic. If i were you, and had my mind set on getting some clubs that fit, i would by some second hand irons on eBay. Cut the shafts right down and use some very thin golf grips. You may well be unlikely to find any thin enough, so perhaps buy a golf grip or another general use grip (like a tennis grip) that you can wrap. I would have so much fun making them! Good luck anyway, let us know what you do.

that is so cool... what brand of club is he hitting in the video. Looks like he will nicely grow into them over the next few months. That's exactly what I'm looking for

Thanks a lot... out of curiosity, how long is the pitching wedge... they don't have the specs listed online. If I can't get them to deliver international, I might be able to match up to something else.
