The Best Toddler Golf Clubs of 2024

So, you want to introduce your toddler to golf, or at least make golf accessible to them by giving them toddler golf clubs? If you have a passion for golf, the idea of sharing that passion with your kids, and building a bond through golf, is exciting. 

My kids are 2 and 3 years old, and I couldn’t wait more than 24 months to start putting clubs in their hands. For my son’s 2nd birthday, I chopped down a lightweight shaft, stuck a two-way chipper on the end (just in case he decides to be a southpaw like his old man), and threw a fun blue grip on it. Certainly not the ideal toddler golf club, but it was enough to get him holding the club and moving the ball, which at this stage was the main goal.

Your goals might be different. Some parents just want to expose their kids to golf and see whether or not they have a natural interest. Some already know their kids are interested, and want the proper tools to help feed that interest.

The problem is that buying golf clubs for adults is hard enough, so where do you even start when shopping for toddler golf clubs? Some will jokingly say “Through a club-fitting of course”. Seriously though, this guide is here to answer all your toddler golf club questions and recommend products we think will work best for your baby bomber.

The Yard Club from U.S. Kids Golf is our top recommendation for parents looking for a golf club for their toddler. It's ideal for kids 36 inches and taller and it's really easy to shop for clubs by your kids' height at the U.S. Kids Golf website. The club itself is super lightweight, so it's easy to swing, and it has an oversize head which of course makes it easy to hit the ball. It has a trainer grip on the other end to teach kids some fundamentals while they're out having fun. With 46 degrees of loft, it's easy to get the ball in the air. We also love that it's available in left-handed and right-handed versions.

This set from Franklin Sports is the only plastic set on this list. We like it better than other plastic toddler golf clubs because, like the Yard Club from U.S. Kids Golf mentioned above, it has a training grip which can naturally assist fundamentals. These clubs are also adjustable, so they can grow with your kiddo and fit a wider spectrum of kids. We also like that it comes in a set of three, so they can work on their game from tee to green (or more likely, have backup clubs if one breaks). The only downside we can find is the set is only available in right-handed.

Here's a cool set of clubs for toddlers that includes three clubs, and a golf bag, and it comes in various color options. It's even available for left-handers. This Shorties TINY set is built for players 34-38 inches tall and includes a driver, 7-iron, and putter, along with a headcover and rain cover. Shorties clubs are designed specifically for little ones, with weights, flexes, and head sizes all tailored to pint-sized players. They're also available in left and right-handed sets, and Shorties offers a Club Up program to trade up to the next size (they offer four sizes total) when kids are ready.

This club from PGA TOUR is excellent for toddlers for a few reasons. First, it comes with it's own training grip. Next it features an oversized face designed to hit larger balls (like the one included). This is huge because using a bigger club to hit a bigger ball is easier than hitting smaller balls with a smaller club. If it's not easy, then kids won't have fun, and if they don't have fun, they're not going to stick with golf. Finally, it's availalbe in left and right-handed options and there are various lengths so kids can use this club as they grow.
