Stick Returns to Apple TV With Owen Wilson Back on the Range

Stick, the golf comedy on Apple TV, returns with its second season on 4 November 2026. Owen Wilson stars in the show and is also one of its executive producers, the person who helps oversee the production.

Wilson plays Pryce Cahill, a former professional golfer whose career was derailed about 20 years ago. He now makes a living coaching retirees and running small cons in bars. In season one, he spots 17-year-old Santiago Wheeler, known as Santi, hitting balls on a driving range in Indiana and becomes his mentor. By the end of that first run, The Guardian reports, Santi was a leading young amateur on the PGA Tour, the top men's circuit in the United States.

The show mixes its comedy with real golf. Wyndham Clark, Max Homa and Collin Morikawa, all active PGA Tour players, appeared as themselves in season one. That mix of fiction and the actual tour is part of the show's appeal for viewers who follow the sport.

The supporting cast fills out the story. Peter Dager plays Santi. Marc Maron plays Mitts, Pryce's former caddie and best friend. A caddie is the player's bag carrier, who also offers advice on club choice and the shot. Lilli Kay plays Zero, Santi's caddie. Mariana Treviño plays Elena, Santi's mother. Judy Greer plays Amber-Linn, and Timothy Olyphant plays Clark.

The drama runs deeper than the jokes. According to The Guardian's account of the show, Santi gave up golf as a boy when his father left home. Pryce also carries grief. His son Jett died aged four, and that loss sits underneath the bar-room scheming and the lessons on the range.

Apple TV released a trailer for the new season in October 2026, and the show's official material leans into the wordplay of its title. Stick is a golf term for the club, and the pun works as a running joke about the series' name.

Wilson was 57 when the second season began, according to Boston Herald. Season two picks up where the first left off, with Santi's career on the tour now under way and Pryce still trying to find his footing. For viewers new to the show, the first season is the best place to start, and the central relationship between the washed-up pro and the young player is easy to follow without any golf knowledge.
