My 3 year old son..

[Maverick]

..showed me his interlock grip on his Playschool Flintstone driver yesterday. He said "Daddy, like this?" and raised the club and bless his heart his index and pinky were perfectly locked..I was shocked..I said where'd you learn that..he said "Golf Channel"..cracked me up.

What a great story!!!

that is really cool.. and who saids tv only teaches crap??

[SSandlin]

Wow, that's great stuff. When he gets a little older you should take him to Target and get one of those Monster Wedges to play with. It's huge and fun. It's a bit heavy so he might want to wait a year or so. It comes with a tee and inflatable golf ball. I tried to find a link and couldn't, but the ones here in Orlando carry a whole line of that stuff. I bought one and the neighborhood kids love it.

Sounds like you may have the makings of a golf prodigy there!

[Maverick]

it really surprised me..I was trying to show him and he just didn't get it then I guess it hit him..weird.

Thats awesome Maverick!

Im hoping the same kinda thing will happen with my son in a couple years. It would be so cool to have a little golfin' buddy!

That is awesome - my 2 1/2 year old always tries to grab my clubs. The problem is he starts singing yo ho yo ho a pirates life for me and starts tearing the place up. LOL

I've got a 6 month old and I've already worked with him by putting a plastic club in his hand. Showing him the interlock grip, etc.

All he did was drool.

Isnt that what there suppose to do?? 6 months hu? well that might be alittle early for swing basics hu?? or never to early to learn..

Thats really cool. I actually got a starter set for my 9 year old (driver, hybrid, 5, 7, & 9 iron, sand wedge and putter). He has been at it for 3 months now. i wish i would have gotten him started earlier. I have been getting him lessons and signed him up for Sunday clinics at the course. He likes it but i think he is overwhelmed. (just like dad!) I actually started taking it more seriuosly after he started. Now my wife is into it. We look at it as a family thing.

Cute. He should follow my advice and learn to beat his Dad A.S.A.P.
