Want to cut and then re grip clubs for 6 year old grandson. Any tips on figuring out length?or other recommendations?

Don't waste your time.

Go to USkidsgolf.com, they have clubs for kids. The problem with cutting down adult clubs is that a normal golf club head is pretty heavy. When the length of the shaft is cut down but the head weight is not reduced it makes it extremely difficult if not possible for a kid to control. They will struggle just to make contact. The US Kids clubs have smaller heads, smaller grips and are weighted appropriately for the length of shaft. Entire sets can be a little spendy at $120 or so, but you can buy individual irons for around $25 a piece or so.

Forgot to mention, the US kids sets are based on child height. Takes all the guessing out of finding the right length shafts.

Makes sense. Thanks. Birthday coming up so that's a great idea.

Another vote for USKG

Got my grand daughter one of their putters. Very nice,

as mentioned, the worst thing you can do for your kid is cut down an adult club. The weighting throws everything off and they will get frustrated when not able to make progress, which heads them in the opposite direction of where you are going.

I spent $5 on a used kids '3 wood I found at Play It Again Sports...and that allowed them to participate and get interested prior to me spending a ton

Bought my son a nice set of ping pals on eBay for $75.

I have 3 boys that play tournament golf, age 11 and 9 (twins). USKG are garbage but OK as a straight beginner set. Ideally, find something decent and cut the shafts, give them a little growing room, that way you won't be replacing them the following year!

at age 6 i got cut down butter knife blades. i had a putter (which was a 1975ish something replica of calamity jane), 9iron, 6 iron and 3wood.
