The Ram Golf SDX Junior package set arrived at my house in very close succession to the new Hogan FTS Junior package set, so I was very keen to compare and contrast. Both looking to sit amongst the best golf club sets for kids, I took them out with my daughter to see what we made of them…

Both sets arrived in the 9-12 range which was ideal for my 9-year-old daughter to try, and we were both immediately impressed with the look of the set. The vibrant blue bag is excellent and the headcovers match well. From a shelf appeal point of view, the clubs look excellent too with nice branding and detailing without being over the top.

Down behind the ball, the whole set once again looks good with nice, friendly profiles and plenty of loft on show to give kids the confidence that they will get the ball up in the air with relative ease. One slightly negative point was the construction of the putter looked like it could be better, with a very noticeable cracking where the head met the neck of the head.

On further inspection, it looked as though this was only cosmetic and not causing any issues in performance, however. Other than that, the putter is good, with a familiar ‘fang’ profile offering plenty of forgiveness.

My daughter found all of the clubs very easy to swing from a weight standpoint and commented that the irons, in particular, felt very good off the face. As a PGA Professional, I was pleased to see some very strong perimeter weighting and healthy head sizes as golf at that age is all about enjoyment, and the Ram Golf SDX Junior Package Set certainly helps to enhance that.

The grips are nice and tacky and felt as though they would be plenty durable which is important if your child is looking to become an avid practicer. Some nice features of the bag include a four-way divider, 3 compartments all closable via some strong zippers, a rain hood, and even a towel ring.
