The Future of Junior Golf Clubs
nufacturers have traditionally ignored the changing demands of the junior golfer in terms of suitable golf equipment. Junior golf clubs for example have historically been manufactured from sub-standard materials and components in one size and one colour fits all.
Knowing and understanding how children grow and change rapidly, many of us will have learned using cut-down golf clubs from our parents. Despite the correct length the weight of the club is often too heavy and the shaft of the club too stiff making it difficult to swing the golf club correctly. It is these early swings of the golf club that can inspire the junior golfer into a lifetime’s enjoyment of the sport.
With new technology, materials and components now being used in the production of junior golf clubs from brands such as Young Gun, Texan Classics and Confidence – junior’s can use a properly designed and fitted set golf clubs that will lead to confidence inspiring shots.
The importance of producing suitable golf equipment for junior golfers is vital for the future of the sport – The Sports HQ recognises this association and offers a large number of junior lines including golf sets, clubs, clothing, bags and accessories – manufactured and supplied direct for exceptional savings compared to high street shops like Argos, JJB and Sports Soccer.
Junior golf brands like Confidence and Texan Classics produce junior golf club sets for ages 4-7 and 8-12; a junior set for girl’s in neon pink from GolfGirl is also available – all brands offer sets in right and left-handed editions.
With some manufacturers now realising the importance of producing golf equipment to meet the growing demands of the junior golfer, brands like Young Gun manufacturer junior golf clubs to the same specifications as adult clubs to allow the smooth transition from junior to adult golf equipment. Young Gun sets can be purchased for age groups: 3-5, 6-8, 9-11 and 12-14 including a square profiled 3-wood, 3 stainless steel irons (5-7-9) and a white ball putter – all fitted with graphite shafts and supplied in a colour coded stand bag with a matching head-cover for the 3-wood.
Junior Golf Clubs can also be purchased individually from online sources including 460cc square drivers, woods and hybrids all fitted with junior flex graphite shafts designed for junior swing speeds. Square club-heads fitted to junior golf clubs is another sign that manufacturers are conditioning youngsters to the game improvement technology used in full-sized golf clubs.
Online suppliers can also offer exceptional discounts on junior golf accessories including clothing, wind-shirts and waterproofs from top adult brands like Ashworth and Stuburt in addition to low factory direct prices on all Young Gun equipment including golf gloves, trolleys and bags.
Unlike the high street online suppliers like The Sports HQ can supply junior golf clubs with discounts of up to 85% to be found on exclusive brands like Texan Classics and Confidence – with prices starting as low as £29.99.

what kind of college could i get into??? advice please for the future & questions about classes?
Hii
I’m a sophomore in high school and I was just wondering If you guys could give me suggestions and tips/advice on how I’m doing this year so far, and what type of college caliber person would you think i’d be? (ex: state school level, UC system level, IVY league material, etc.)
im taking:
acting 1 (i just dropped out of AP chem, but it wont show that on my transcript as i did that before the deadline)
AP Calc AB (skipped pre-algebra and pre-calc)
English 10 honors
AP world history (our school doesnt allow us to take history freshmen year)
Spanish 3
Aerobics (dont laugh at me ;p)
I got a 4.0gpa freshmen year (all As & no weighted classes including honors classes) and im looking to get all As this year as well.
extracurriculars:
-varsity debate (i was a novice freshmen year)
-speech team (just tried out/joined this year)
-model United Nations (just joined)
-key club-i will apply to be an officer/coordinator
-I’m the treasurer AND vice president of a club (not 2 separate clubs; one club). the goal is to raise money for kids with cleft lips and to work with the IRC (international rescue committee)
-science Olympiad (just joined so i havnt won anything yet)
-im going to apply to be an editor in my school’s science journal (for this year and beyond)
-CSF (california scholarship foundation, im in this already)
-im a black belt 1st degree in Taekwondo (earned in 8th grade)
-im going to start weekly volunteering at a senior facility
I will also apply for yearbook towards the end of the year so i can take it junior and senior year. Also, I’m going to tryout for the girl’s golf team in junior year (I will try to get lessons over the summer as I’ve only played golf recreationally before)
I’ll also apply for NHS next year (for junior & senior year)
—
a few questions: does it matter that i didnt take ap chem? i took the regular chem class over the sumer for school credit, and ill be taking ap bio junior year and maybeee ap physics senior year. (not sure what i want to go into for college-maybe pre med or law though)
once im done with spanish 3, can i go on to AP spanish and skip spanish 4? more importantly: how important is it to take AP spanish, if it is at all? do colleges look at kids who take AP spanish differently than they would to kids who go through spanish 3 or 4 but did not take AP spanish? im saying this in the context of people who do not want to major in world languages, but do to it for the heck of it and for the experience. do colleges see the AP spanish taker as a determined person? or does it not matter to them if they are not going to major or take that language in college?
and since I’m quite ahead in math, is it okay if i just fulfill the 3 year requirement and not take math senior year (if thats the case ill probably take AP stats junior year)?
and lastly: any suggestions on how to improve on or build on my schedule and my extra currics for the years to come?
thanks so much:)
side note- im taking the PSAT this year in october. last year (freshmen year) i got around an 1800 but i took a psat class over the summer and i think this year when im going to take it i think i’m capable of getting a score somewhere around a 1900-2050. ( will definitely take an sat class next summer to improve on this. my goal is to get a 2250+ when i take the real SAT)
also: my school is a really good high school. our api is in the high 800s (i think we got arond an 870 this year) and it’s super competitive. i know colleges have to pick somewhat the equal number of kids from each school, and since my school is more competitive than others itll be harder to get into a better school.
btw i did ask this question in another section too-i want answers from all different types of people
sorry this was so long!
thanks again!
again, although i dont know wht i want to go into yet, (either pre-med or law of some variation) i really want to get into stanford, uc Berkeley, dartmouth, or princeton. do i have a shot at schools of that caliber?
