A few weeks ago a good friend asked me to set up a club fitting for his grandson – age 9.  This is actually the first fitting I have done for a very young golfer, but I had some ideas of what we would do in the fitting.  For sure, we would not be cranking up the Flightscope and measuring swing speed, etc.  I am definitely a "softee" for young kids (having three grandchildren, and one more on the way), and we had a great experience that I think is going to help him enjoy his golf.

What we did was focus on the following:
My friend and his grandson picked up the clubs on Sunday and the young boy loves the feel of them.  I said we could extend them (to longer lengths) in the future as needed, and also could put bigger grips not the clubs.  He and his granddad were beaming.  I am willing to bet he will find it easy to hit these clubs (watch out, granddad!).
