Handicap and price range are absurd points of reference to fit a person.

If a club fitter were to ask me that, I'd walk out of the session....what you need to know is see the swing...do a static and dynamic fitting..at MINIMUM...and THEN gather more information...all the way down to the state and course they play.

Well... if he were asking about fitting then you might have a point, but fitting a 13yr old would be a waste of time unless you were going to do it every 6 months.....unless he has stopped growing at 13. The thread wasnt about fitting. Please try to stay on subject.

Anyway, Andrew, take your brother to a pro shop or whatever you have in your area that will allow him to test clubs and see what he likes. Most top of the line clubs are good quality and will last long enough for him to use them for years. In the end, its really all personal preference. If he does get fit for them, you might want to look into something forged, because they will give him greater room for adjustment down the road as he grows.

    • Day 12: did the yardstick putting drill for a bit while watching tv. 
    • Hole 6, 185 uphill par 3, wind out of the right. I hit a 7 iron to 5-FT left of the pin. The ball landed about 185.5 yards. I drained the putt for a birdie, and most likely a skin.  2nd place is more of a best swing made. 110 yard wedge shot, where I did what I wanted in the back swing and downswing.  I hit a 75% partial wedge 95%. It was flushed, flighted, and beautiful to watch fly over the green. 🤣. I will need to redial in the wedges sometime. Since I am making an effort to make my former 3/4 swing length my full swing length. 
    • Is that like "the longest yardstick you can find"? I don't have Airtags but I'd call all of them Airtags too.!
    • Yea, that makes sense.  I remember an Open tournament when they brought out the wind meter one day because balls were being blown around the green. I think it was 45+ sustained, which probably means 60 mph gusts.  I think for the most part, it isn't something that needs to be taken into account.  Also, a golf ball is designed to optimally move through the air. It has better aerodynamics than a sphere.  Thanks for your expertise on this. That makes sense. I know about how wind diminishes the lower in height you go. I didn't know it went near zero at the ground. I deal more with tall structures (utility poles), and we have to take into account height and impacts of wind on the pole. A bit of experience, but wasn't sure how close to zero, non-impactful it was on the golf ball on the ground. 
    • Day 2 (7 Aug 25) - More work on tempo with mid-irons, moved to wedges for the balance of the drill.
