Junior Golf FAQs

When should I start my child playing golf?

There is no easy answer to this question. Tiger Woods started at age 1 and Greg Norman started at age 18. Starting early has advantages and disadvantages. The goal is to expose a child early when he/she naturally shows interest. I would like to see a child start playing golf before age 14 but not any earlier than age 6. Remember that for every child that was raised like Tiger Woods, there are a thousand children that were burned out by age 14. Natural ability will determine the success of a child, not starting early. If your child is enjoying him/herself at an early age great but just allow them to have fun in their own way. This is a sure way to get them hooked.

How early should my child start taking formal golf lessons?
First off, at the start, say age 7-9, the extent of a lesson would be grip, stance and basic swing. After that the best lessons are practicing, learning by trial and error. Trust the pro’s judgment if a child is competent early. The pro may not opt to become very involved in order to let the child develop his/her natural talents.

How regimented should the lesson routine be?

A lot of people wonder why their child goes to basketball practice five days a week, but the golf pro suggests one lesson every two or three weeks. The difference is that at a basketball practice they are not working on mechanics every day. In fact rarely do they work on mechanics, instead most practice time is focused on playing or developing plays. Playing golf five to seven days per week will improve your child's game, but getting lessons everyday usually leads to confusion. Mechanics are the same as habits and it is said that it takes 21 days to change a habit and that is if you work on it consistently for 21 days in a row. Trust your pro; your child may really just need cheerleader.

Will my child be good at golf after the summer?
Maybe. If the child has talent he/she will have improved considerably. If he/she works hard then they will be good. If parents foster his/her interests by playing with him/her a few days a week, then the potential for a successful junior golfer is unlimited. The one constant I see in all great junior golfers is very involved and supportive parents.

What will my child gain from the junior golf program?
Your child will definitely come home with a familiarity with the game. Your child will be comfortable on a golf course, understand the basic rules and etiquette of the game. They will also understand the basics of the golf swing. Lastly, your child will understand the game to the extent that they can make a decision whether golf is something they wish to pursue.

As a parent what can I do to help my child become the best they can be?
Get involved! It’s more than dropping your child off at junior lessons every week. Get out on the range, putting green and golf course with your child as often as possible. Make golf a fun family event. Lastly, trust your pro’s advice. If the pro thinks your child needs instruction get it, if he thinks your child needs to play, take him/her on the course.
