I started at 26 but only got into it at around 29, wish I'd played from a younger age. My wee man is 3 and loves coming to the gc with me, daddy son time and practice in one. Awesome

I would say 3 is ok to buy him a little club and just whack a few balls at the range, he will lie it. I cut down my old putter for my lad, he likes the putting green more than the range as he sees a result if you know what I mean. It's all about fun though, if he stops enjoying it, it will stop.

I plan to run the "miracle at medinah" dvd and play it to my child in the womb.

I don't try to teach my weeman anything, just showed him how to hold the club and told him to try to hit the ball. He has a 7 iron and just potters round hitting a few balls, he thinks its great, so do I
