My daughter is 13 and has a set of US Kids TS60's (loves them),  My question is per their fitting guide they are too small for her at 5' 31/2" now (she's grown a lot this year), should I look at adult clubs or would another set of junior clubs be ok.  Her driver club head speed is between 75-80mph and shoot's in low 50's on 9 holes and is solid tee to green (short game needs lots of work).  Any ideas or comment's welcome.

Might be worth checking out some women's clubs, they might be a little long for her but she's only going to get bigger. Have her get fit and demo some clubs.

I know that on craigslist here in Los Angeles county, I see ads for junior golf stuff all the time. Might worth a look see at the site in your area for clubs.

I was leaning that way, and thought I might use the same lengths that US Kids biggest set.  I just don't want the shafts to be too heavy for her or change the swing weight.  I guess getting her fitted would be the best option for her.  We may make it a father daughter day.  Thanks for your input MVMAC.  HAMMER4 craigslist is not good for that kind of stuff out this way.

    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.

    • Thanks man, sometimes it’s hard to improve bc when I’m not feeling comfortable I don’t like practicing bc I get frustrated. Any advice?
