What is Operation 36?

Operation 36 is a developmental golf program designed to guide a beginner from playing their first round, to shooting par or better for 9 holes. When following the model, you will begin from 25 yards away from the pin on the green, with a goal of playing 9 holes of golf in less than 36 shots (4 shots per hole). Once you shoot 36 or better, you move on to the next division which is a further distance away from the hole. The end goal in golf is shooting 36 from the furthest back tees on the golf course for your skill level!

First Tee — Upstate South Carolina Op36 Monthly Challenge

Starting in February 1st, we will be starting a challenge that will span over the entire month. To earn points for the challenge you will need to earn points on the Op36 App. Earning points is simple, all you need to do is log playing an Op36 round from your division, going to the driving range to practice, practicing at home, or even watching the PGA or LPGA Tour on TV! You can also earn extra points for playing in our Official Operation 36 Play-Days detailed at the bottom of the page.

At the end of each month in the Spring, Summer, and Fall we will reward the Top 3 participant point getters and their families.
