About Our Junior Club Fitting Assessment

Introducing young golfers to the game is a rewarding experience, and providing them with the right equipment is crucial for their development. Golf Science’s Junior Club Fitting Assessment is specifically designed for golfers aged 7 to 14, ensuring they start their golfing journey with properly fitted clubs that match their height, strength, and swing characteristics. Our goal is to provide junior players with clubs that promote correct swing mechanics, making it easier for them to develop consistency and a love for the game.

Why is Junior Club Fitting Important?

Off-the-shelf junior clubs are often built with standard specifications, which may not be suitable for young players of varying heights and abilities. Clubs that are too long, too heavy, or have inappropriate flex can hinder a junior’s ability to learn proper swing techniques, leading to frustration and slow progress. A tailored club fitting ensures that your child’s equipment is optimally sized and weighted, promoting a smooth swing and allowing them to enjoy the game while building confidence.

Key Considerations for Junior Fitting

During the Junior Club Fitting Assessment, our experts focus on several critical factors:

⦁ Club Length: Proper club length is essential for juniors to maintain balance and control. We ensure that each club is correctly matched to the player’s height and arm length.

⦁ Shaft Flex and Weight: Junior players benefit from lighter shafts with softer flex to accommodate their slower swing speeds and developing strength.

⦁ Grip Size: Smaller, softer grips are ideal for young golfers, enabling them to maintain a comfortable hold and develop proper grip techniques.

⦁ Set Composition: We analyse which clubs should be included in their set, ensuring they have the right mix to cover various shot types and yardages without overcomplicating their game.
Available Shaft Options for Juniors

At Golf Science, we offer a range of high-quality junior shafts designed to suit young players’ needs.

Our options include:
⦁ Accra Junior Series: Lightweight graphite shafts that promote smooth tempo and easy launch.
⦁ KBS Junior Tour: Steel shafts with junior-specific flex profiles for advanced young players.
⦁ UST Mamiya Junior: Graphite shafts engineered for developing golfers, combining lightweight properties with optimal control.

Assessing Swing Development and Set Composition

A critical part of the Junior Club Fitting Assessment is evaluating the junior’s swing development and ensuring their set composition is both practical and effective. We recommend starting with a smaller set of key clubs, such as a driver, hybrid, 7-iron, wedge, and putter, which provides coverage without overwhelming the player. As their game develops, we revisit their set composition to add more clubs and fine-tune their setup.

Creating a Positive Learning Experience

Our fitting experts focus on creating a welcoming and educational experience for junior golfers. We explain the fitting process in simple terms, allowing young players to understand why certain clubs are being recommended. This approach builds their confidence and gives them a sense of ownership over their equipment, making them more enthusiastic about practicing and playing.
