Hi Jeff,

It looks like the shortest length available to select for the zinc junior putter is 32 inches. Is it possible to order it in a shorter length? My 5 year old son is left handed and this head looks like it would work for him. I was looking to get it built at 27 inches.

Thanks,

Jeff

Jeff:

Unfortunately there are so many options you can include on the website regarding length. We can cut it down to that length, but I would probably use the Apollo junior .500" steel shaft so the junior grip will fit. 27" seems extremely long for a 5 year old...

Thanks Jeff. What would be the standard size for a 5 year old? He is about 42 inches tall.

Thanks Jeff.

When it comes time to order it (going to be a birthday present), how should I go about ordering it for that length and different shaft?

Jeff:

You will have to call in the order and be specific about what you want. You can email me when the time comes. But, haven't you been attending the clubmaking Webinars? Time to get you feet wet and come over to the dark side and start making your own clubs...

Jeff,

It looks like the Karma junior putter grip has a core of .540. Your post said to get the .500 junior shaft. Should I be looking at the .560 instead?

It may not matter as you will be cutting quite a bit off of the butt end of the shaft. I normally use the .500" shafts for children his height.
