Re: Lee Westwoods Website

I will be getting him a half set, just not sure which one. I have picked a few up and the heads do seam to be quite heavy, the 7 iron & 5 wood he has now is for 4-5 year olds and its very heavy, even though he is a big lad for his age you can tell by his swing he is putting most of his effort in to just swinging it back, which restricts how much he can shown about getting it on the correct path. I haven’t tried to teach him to much up to now, just alignment, grip and stance, but he’s now ready to learn a little bit more so I can get him on the course. What I don’t want is for his next set to be even heavier so he ends up with the same problem. He gets good distance which is probably down to the weight of the head but has poor control of the club. I haven’t really had chance to see many other 6 year olds in action so I cant compare how they swing, should I be looking for more control at this early age or wait until he is a bit older. He hits his 7 iron 50-60yrds and his 5 wood 90-110yrds in the air.
