Junior golf set rental in Atlanta — clubs, bags, and practice gear sized for kids learning the game. Rather than buying a full setup they'll outgrow before next spring, rent it, learn it, and trade up when they're ready. See plans to get started.

Our Story
HeyBuddy Outdoors started in our garage-literally. After buying, storing, and eventually donating gear our kids outgrew in months, we realized there had to be a better way. We're parents of three who believe the best childhood memories happen outside, not in front of screens, and that too many families are fighting devices, clutter, and cost at the exact same time.
So we built HeyBuddy Outdoors as a premium kids outdoor gear library - not a subscription box. We help families try the right gear, in the right size, at the right moment, without filling the garage with stuff they'll outgrow by next season.
Every piece we send out is gear we'd feel good using with our own kids. We're starting in Atlanta because this is home, and because we think more families deserve an easier way to choose campouts, creek walks, range days, fishing trips, and backyard adventures over one more screen.
