Driver for my daughter

[Petercool]

My daughter has been using my wife’s clubs and has picked up a scholarship at one of the better golf courses near me. Sidenote. I can’t afford to be a member but she is full playing 7 days.

She’s 13 and its about Time for real clubs.

We think she’s finished growing. 5 foot 9.

Should I go something like

PING Prodi G 24 Junior Driver​

Or should I go ladies clubs?

Go for a full fitting.
My 13 yr daughter (thats quite a few years ago) used to play with ladies clubs, but she could never get it right. When she started to work she bought her own set and was fitted for Ping G10s with a regular steel shaft.
She still uses them, and hits them well and straight.
It was obvious she was overpowering the ladies shafts.
We were told by medical staff that a girl doesn't generally stop growing until 18 months after their first period.
That definitely was correct for both our daughters.

Awesome great info for me.

I might hold off just a bit longer then as shes only just had her first.

If you are ever on Melbourne hit me up for a free round at my club in the sandbelt

The Ping Prodi G driver is great, but the Prodi G line up is only designed for up to a height of 5'2, after this Ping recommend getting fit for adult clubs. Given your daughters height she is well beyond this, and is probably even on the tall side for standard ladies clubs too.

Agree get fit - or buy a set of 2nd hand ladies clubs. And then get fit a bit down the road. Generally even good quality ladies clubs come at a significant discount compared to men's sets on sites like Golfclubs4cash etc

Love that Petercool "Hit me up for a free round".

My advice re your daughter, seek advice from a decent pro, and very best of luck for her future.
