What is OPERATION 36?

At Bennett Valley Golf Course  we believe that every golf program should be centered around playing golf and making it fun to track progress over time.

This is why our facility is excited to be a licensed Operation 36® facility. We leverage the Op 36 Development Model and technology to make it fun for our golfers to improve their skills. Every group academy program contains an on course component allowing participants to apply learned skills. Our goal is to create golfers for life and that process starts on the course!
