Start Your Child Out Properly With Junior Callaway Golf Clubs

 

If you're sincere about giving your child the best foundation feasible when taking up the game of golf, think about procuring a set of Junior Callaway golf clubs. While some golfers, such as Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods, started at ages as young as 2 years using parent-modified, cut-down clubs, once a young person gets to be about 5 or 6, Callaway has an assortment of clubs that will give them a terrific start to what will in all probability be a life long involvement with the game.

Luckily for any youth starting out in the game of golf today – boy or girl – club choices do not have to be cut-down adaptations of throw away clubs or adult models that are not specially age-based designed. So, when starting your youngster out, take into account that a set of Junior Callaway golf clubs will not only take into consideration the necessity for shorter shafts, but club construction also accounts for the fact kids take slower swings. They are not as physically powerful as adults so using equipment exclusively designed for their smaller bodies is a great idea.

Junior Callaway golf clubs offer a more flexible shaft construction that helps the slow swing whip the club head through the ball faster than if the child used a cut down adult model driver, wood or iron. Callaway utilizes flexible shaft construction while designating shaft lengths in two age categories – 5 through 9 and then 9 through 12.

Different from dad or mom, a junior golfer does not require the same amount of clubs in his or her bag, The main focus for very young players is in all probability twofold:

* Form a life-long love for the game

* Begin constructing a golf swing that is effective and repeatable

Although buying a complete set may be basically a wise investment, starting your youngster in the back yard swinging a seven iron and then a fairway wood or metal, followed by some wedge shots and obviously a putter might be the road to success.

Junior Callaway golf clubs are offered in five sets:

* Top-Flite XLj Junior for 9-12 in heights from 53-60

* Top-Flite XLj Junior for 5-8 in heights from 41-52

The first offers an 11-piece set with a stand bag, the second offers a 10-piece set.

Junior golfers looking for a more advanced choice in golfing equipment can select from the X series that utilizes the very same golf club construction technology found in Callaway’s adult X series clubs.

Every set comes with a “smaller” version of the adult X460cc all stainless steel driver in the form of a 360cc volume head. These drivers have a large effective hitting area adding to the “forgiveness” aspect all Callaway clubs have grown to possess. The stainless steel fairway wood is designed with exact engineering that helps carry the ball higher and farther down the lane. Add a set of irons -#5,7,0 and sand wedge – that provide great stability and that Callaway forgiveness quality with an XJ Odyssey 2 putter – all carried in a lightweight, attractive stand bag – and you have started your youngster down the right cart path for life long enjoyment.
