The program

What is Operation 36?

Operation 36 is a learn-to-play golf program for beginning golfers, from juniors to adults. Op36 coaches teach it at their facilities, and the goal is in the name: shoot 36 for nine holes.

  • One goal: 36

    Every golfer works toward the same target, nine holes in 36 strokes, whatever their skill level.

  • Level by level

    Golfers move up through the Op36 levels with their coach, and an Op36 set can move up with them.

  • Taught by Op36 coaches

    Coaches run the program at golf facilities, for juniors and adults.

The partnership

Operation 36 teaches the game. Henry-Griffitts builds the clubs.

Henry-Griffitts has fit and built custom golf clubs since 1983. Through our partnership with Operation 36, we build the clubs sold on op36shop.com.

Every set is built to order for the golfer who will play it, by hand, in our shop in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. It moves through the same eight build stations as every Henry-Griffitts club, from cutting to final check.

The clubs

Fit to the golfer. Sized to the level.

An Op36 set starts from a few facts about the golfer who will play it, and it’s built from them.

Sets that grow

Five sets, from 2 clubs to 10

  2. Progression4 clubs
  3. Player6 clubs
  4. Advanced8 clubs
  5. Complete10 clubs
Level by level: Level 1 starts with a putter and pitching wedge, and each Op36 level adds one club: a driver at Level 2, then a 7 iron, sand wedge, fairway wood, 9 iron, 8 iron and 6 iron, and a hybrid at Levels 9–10. Buy a set, or add clubs one at a time as the golfer moves up.

Fit by height and swing speed

The fitting uses the golfer’s height and swing speed, with their age, gender and dominant hand. From those we set each club’s length, shaft flex and grip size.

A set for every level

Five sets, from the 2-club Starter Set to the 10-club Complete Set, or the set for the golfer’s Op36 level. You can also build a custom set club by club.

Junior and adult sets

Sets are built for juniors and for adults, right- or left-handed, and every set is built to order.

Add clubs as they move up

As a golfer moves up, add clubs to the set they already have, and upgrade shafts along the way.

How ordering works

From fitting to your door in four steps

  1. Have the golfer’s details ready

    Height, age, gender and dominant hand, plus swing speed if it has been measured.

  2. Choose a set on op36shop.com

    Pick one of the five sets or the set for the golfer’s level, and enter their details with the order. Go to op36shop.com (opens in a new tab)

  3. We build it

    Your order comes to us, and we build the set to the golfer’s numbers, by hand, through our eight build stations.

  4. It ships to you

    Once the set passes final check, we pack it and ship it to you. Orders ship within the United States and Canada.

Questions

Op36 clubs: common questions

Who builds Op36 clubs?

Henry-Griffitts. Every set sold on op36shop.com is built to order, by hand, in our shop in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, through the same eight build stations as every H-G club.

What do I need to place an order?

The golfer’s height, age, gender and dominant hand, plus their swing speed if it has been measured.

Is Operation 36 only for kids?

No. Operation 36 is a learn-to-play program for beginners, and Op36 clubs come in junior and adult sets.

Do we have to buy the set for the golfer’s level?

No. Choose any of the five sets, from the 2-club Starter Set to the 10-club Complete Set, or build a custom set club by club.

Are left-handed clubs available?

Yes. The order asks for the golfer’s dominant hand, and every set is built right- or left-handed to match.

What happens when a golfer moves up a level?

Each Op36 level adds one club, so add the new level’s club to the set they already have, and upgrade shafts as they grow.

Is an Op36 set the same as a full H-G fitting?

They’re different. An Op36 set is fit from the golfer’s height, swing speed, age, gender and dominant hand, and built to standard lie unless a fitter specifies otherwise.

A full fitting with a Henry-Griffitts fitter tests every spec (length, lie, loft, face angle, shaft and grip) with the golfer hitting shots, and the ball flight makes the call. When a golfer is ready for that, find an H-G fitter near you.

Where do Op36 orders ship?

Orders placed on op36shop.com ship to addresses in the United States and Canada. In Australia or New Zealand, find a Henry-Griffitts fitter near you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about custom fitting, ordering, and getting the most out of your Henry-Griffitts clubs.

Once your fitting is complete, our expert club builders typically craft and ship your custom clubs within just 5 days. We pride ourselves on fast turnaround without sacrificing quality or precision.

We fit dynamically — measuring how you actually deliver the club through your swing, not just your height and wrist-to-floor. Every variable is matched to you: length, lie angle, loft, shaft weight and flex, face angle, and grip. And you see the results in real time as the ball flight changes. We call it "We Show You, We Don't Tell You."

No — the opposite. Newer golfers often benefit the most, because clubs that don't fit force compensations that become bad habits. Equipment built around your swing makes solid contact easier to find and easier to repeat, whatever your handicap.

Use our Locate a Fitter page to find a certified H-G Teacher/Fitter in your area. Our fitters are trained in the H-G Integrated Club System and will take you through a complete dynamic fitting.

SST PURE is a shaft-alignment technology that finds each shaft's most stable orientation and installs it in exactly that position, for tighter, more consistent shot patterns. It's trusted by tour professionals — and at Henry-Griffitts it's standard on every club we build, not an upgrade.

Yes. We offer loft and lie adjustments, regripping, shaft repair and replacement, custom grinding, and more. Visit our shop's services section or contact us and we'll point you in the right direction.
