    Go to a Golfsmith (if you have one in your area) and build a club together. The fitting Pro will let you build the club while you’re there and they will only charge you for the materials used. You should be able to buy a Snake Eyes wedge for $50 or less. I think that they give you the option between a Snake Eyes wedge or a really cheap driver. The Snake Eyes 60 degree wedge is actually a pretty good one. I use a Snake Eyes 60 and a Vokey 56. If you don’t have a Golfsmith, look for a used sporting goods store and buy him a used wedge, Odyssey putter, or a Calloway Heavenwood. All 3 good options and it’s feasible to buy any of these for $50 or less.
