at what age can i expect him to have any semblance of ability to hit a ball on his own? |

the key is getting them hooked. sounds like you’re already there unless it’s just some short phase.
we have a an artificial putting green that rolls 10+ along with a couple other fairway height(but rolled) greens making for a pretty nice pitch n putt setup and also a mat/net/launch monitor(but not full screen simulator) in the garage.
yet my kids don’t give a shit. maybe because it’s too accessible idk. im guessing at some point at least a couple of them will get into it when their friends do |

We now do the chipping greens and started to do the range a decent amount and popped on a crappy Amazon push cart for my son so we both can actually get some exercise.
4yo just keep him happy and engaged and hitting putts and short shots. Dont expect a baby Rory. |

Date: June 9th, 2025 9:24 PM Author: hank_scorpio I don't have kids but I have nieces and nephews and there is no way you can expect a small kid to do anything like real golf until they are at least twice that age or probably more, Tiger grew up putting and chipping and that worked out pretty well, I'd just stick with that (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5735414&forum_id=2...id.#49000919) |
