Golf equipment manufacturers are now making custom clubs that meet the different needs of senior golfers and the junior and kid golfers. Because golf has become so popular, more people of all ages are now playing. The age spectrum is very broad.

Baby boomers are now in their 50’s and 60’s. Because this is such a huge potential market, the club manufacturers and making clubs that have more flexible shafts, which makes it easier on the older golfer. The companies are also making hybrid clubs that are especially designed for seniors. These hybrid clubs are becoming alternatives to the long irons.

The same goes for the kids. Not too long ago, club sets for kids were customized by cutting down the shaft of a regular-sized set to fit the young golfer.

As golf has became more popular with the younger set, we realized that cutting down the shafts was not such a good idea. Doing this creates a very stiff club. This makes it difficult for kids to hit. As the demand for kids clubs grew, the manufacturers started providing sets for the younger golfers. These clubs are customized to the height and age of the golfer. Perhaps equally important, these clubs are generally offered at reasonable prices, since kids are likely to outgrow their customized clubs as they get older.
