I have been seriously impressed with Hogan Golf this year. The direct-to-consumer brand has put out some very strong products at a great price point, particularly in the iron market, with the PTX Tour irons sitting amongst the best irons of 2024 for me. So when I heard I was being sent a new junior package set from the company, I was looking forward to seeing what was on offer for the kids…

The FTS package sets come in both boy’s and girl’s configurations with three different age ranges available including 3-5. 6-8, and 9-12. The 3-5 set comes with the bare minimum of clubs, including just a driver, a 9-iron, and a putter, but in my experience that feels about right for that age group. As you move up the age range, more clubs are added, for example, the 6-8 range adds a 7-iron, and then finally the 9-12 set I was sent adds a 22˚ hybrid into the mix.

The bag itself is nicely designed, with a little stand, and ample pockets to store whatever is required for a round of golf. It also comes equipped with a rain hood and a dual strap for ease of carrying.

With regards to the clubs themselves, they are really nicely constructed and very appropriate in length and weight. My 9-year-old daughter found them very easy to swing and had little difficulty getting them airborne. The driver and hybrid make a nice satisfying ‘ping’ off the clubface which was greatly appreciated by my daughter, and Hogan has done a good job adding some extra detail to the putter including a face insert which makes the set feel a little more premium.

Overall, I would say that this is very much one of the best junior package sets I have been sent, both in terms of looks and performance. The value for money is exceptional, with the 9-12 set I was sent retailing for just £139.99, and the lower age ranges dropping to £119.99, and £89.99 respectively. If you are looking for a set to get your child started, this would be very high on my list
