John,
I very much appreciate your willingness to participate in this forum and give of your time and knowledge.

I have a 4 year old son who has a great interest in and enthusiasm for the game of golf. We chip balls in the back yard and have putting contests in the house. I am curious about how you work with your son.
How long are his dowels?
What kind of drills do you do with him?
How do you emphasize fundamentals and keep it interesting for him?
How long do you usually work with him at one time?
Has he played on a real course yet?
What are your plans for him playing competitively? How soon? How much?

Any suggestions you have toward helping my son be the best he can be would be greatly appreciated.
