In this special LIVE episode of The Golf Sitdown, we sit down with Brent Wilkerson to break down what it really takes to develop golfers over the long term.

From coaching struggles to breakthrough moments, Brent shares how Operation 36 transformed his approach—helping players, parents, and coaches understand the journey beyond just a one-hour lesson.

We dive into:

• Why traditional lessons often fail
• The importance of on-course experience
• What parents should (and shouldn’t) do
• How players actually improve over time
• The mindset shift that changes everything

If you're a parent, coach, or player looking to get better the RIGHT way—this episode is for you.
