Overview

Operation 36 Golf Clubs were created to solve one of the biggest challenges beginner golfers and coaches face: equipment overwhelm and poor quality.

For coaches, it can be difficult to catch every new student at registration and answer the same questions: Where should I get clubs? What should I buy? Op 36 Clubs are the “easy button” — saving you time, ensuring students show up with properly fit equipment, and providing families with an affordable, step‑by‑step way to build their set as they progress.

Why Henry‑Griffitts?

We partnered with Henry‑Griffitts because they are the only company we found over the last decade willing to:

  • Provide both adult and junior clubs

  • Stock left‑ and right‑handed options

  • Allow families to purchase one club at a time

  • Offer affordable pricing for consumers

  • Hand‑build clubs one at a time and custom wrap the shaft with player name/height

  • Share our belief in supporting beginners with properly fit clubs that make it easier to get the ball in the air

  • Develop a first‑of‑its‑kind fitting system for juniors and adults that measures speed, lie angle, and length — giving coaches a simple, portable tool

Why It Matters for Coaches

At the end of the day, Op 36 Clubs save you time and remove a common barrier to learning. Coaches don’t have to sell clubs or manage retail transactions — they simply want players to arrive with the right equipment so they can focus on teaching. This system provides exactly that.

Ways to Engage

There are three simple ways to engage:

  1. Enable Club Support at Registration — Ask participants if they need clubs when they enroll. If they say yes, Op 36 will send them an email linking to the online fitting tool. Families can begin with a starter set or build their set with proper guidance. (This can be turned on/off for each program.)

  2. Purchase a Fitting System — Coaches can buy the portable fitting kit and charge for fittings as a professional service. We recommend offering paid fitting sessions to generate revenue for your time.

  3. Opt Out Entirely — If you already sell equipment or do not want your Op 36 members to see club information or marketing, you can opt out in your app settings. This disables the registration question and stops direct emails about clubs to participants.

FAQ

Q: Do I have to promote Op 36 Clubs at my facility?

A: No. You can turn off “Op 36 Clubs” inside the app settings. If you do, players won’t see the option at registration or receive marketing emails about clubs.

Q: How do families order clubs?

A: Families order directly through Op36Shop.com (the Op 36 Store). Clubs are also visible in the app and on our website for reference. If you opt out, the placement remains but marketing emails will not be sent. All clubs are custom-built and shipped directly to families.

Q: What if players already have clubs?

A: That’s fine. They can continue in the program with their existing equipment. The clubs are an option, not a requirement.

Q: What makes these clubs different from box sets?

A: They’re hand-built, custom fit, and introduced one at a time as players progress — mirroring the Op 36 model. Families save money, players avoid bad habits, and coaches see faster skill development.


Key Takeaway for Coaches

Operation 36 Clubs are a teaching tool designed to make your job simpler and your students more successful:

  • Save time by removing the hassle of researching or placing equipment orders

  • Provide an “easy button” so beginners show up with properly fit clubs from day one

  • Reduce beginner overwhelm with a clear, step‑by‑step pathway

  • Keep lessons focused on coaching and skill development, not equipment issues

  • Give families confidence and a simple, affordable way to keep progressing

The goal is straightforward: make it easier for you to coach, and easier for players to learn, succeed, and stay in the game.
