Is this bag too big for an 11 year old boy on the shorter side of average?

I am not good with kids sizes but it fits me well and I'm 5'10" and 145 pounds. This pack holds more than it looks like it will and can get heavy very quickly. 40-50 pounds. I think it would be too big. They have some smaller packs that may be a better fit.

Yes I am 5' 9" and I still had to adjust it almost all the way down. Definitely get something smaller.

Yes, it is too big. It is great for a long torso and someone shorter, maybe not. The Outdoor Products Stargazer is a large backpack that could work. I do not know the Teton Scout, but that is probably a closer fit

Yes it is, but Teton makes 2 smaller bags almost identical that would be perfect! Here is a link to another Teton backpack that is smaller but I do recommend Teton they make such great packs at a low price. All my friends use high dollar ones and I have my Tetons that actually come with more and the same durability but for less! http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000F34ZKS/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1387677207&sr;=8-1π=SY200_QL40

It will be too big. My bf is 5'11 and it lands on hips perfectly. I have a north face bag and I'm 5'1 that fits perfectly. I'll try finding the exact model.

I have a 50 inch chest and a 36 inch waist and this bag barely fits in the chest but is comfortable with chest strap all the way out and fastened, and the waist is just fine with lots of room in either direction. I am only 5'10" however and I think this bag would fit better on someone over six feet, it is not made for a short back. I have retired it for a smaller bag, it is just to big for anything short of wilderness expeditions.

I use this bag to fit my samsung tab S 10.5 inch and still some room left could probably fit 11 inch in the midddle but the side u might be able to fit more. Hope this helps.

I imagine it all depends on how much use you'd want him to get out of it. I assume within 1 or 2 years, a youth bag would likely be too small and you'd be replacing it with a regular sized bag.

I am 5' 11"... the pack felt small on me with the straps lengthened to their max. The bag is a small person bag with minimal equipment expectations.

A 10 year old boy might not fit inside the bag. The bag is only a few feet in length. I guess if the boy was small enough he might fit inside.

I'm quite certain that this bag is compatible with any height. You can adjust the seat height for your child, which is a great feature.I am 5'5, & I like to adjust the seat a little higher when I carry my son, whereas my dad, who is 5 '11, adjusts the seat to be a little lower. So I'm sure your husband can wear this just fine.

My son is only 5'10". There was a lot of extra room at the bottom - not sure how much, though. You could zip two two of the same size together.

My son is able to fit his 11" Mac in the bag, and also some papers. It's fine for young ones that do not need the extra space. But it IS a tight squeeze.

It depends on how tall the 8 year old is. It might be a little bit too big and cause the bag to be lower in the front than in the back, which might cause the clubs to slide out...

Yes, this would be a good bag for the price. It is fully adjustable. Just don't pack too much weight in it, considering your son only weighs 80 lbs. When I used this pack, I had it filled with 55 lbs. of gear.

I think it's too small. I am 6 feet and it does look small. But I wanted a small bag. So it depends what u want to carry in the bag, that's more important question. Medium might not be a bad choice and can carry decent size stuff.

Yes, this should fit well. My sons Scout Master 11 year old son is that size and uses this backpack.

Actually it was a gift for an 11 year old. He is very thin and it fits him fine!

It's not too big, I don't have the actual measurements but it like a small golf bag I guess. My 8 year old carries it around with him,

May be too small for an 11year old. We bought this size for our 5 year old. Our seven year old fits it too. Just not sure about an 11 year old.

Yes, I think it will just fine. Our 11 year old wears it often and it is just a tad large.
