How It Works

  1. On the course

    Track your shots the way you always have. Lie and distance in pencil, one line per shot. Nothing new to learn, nothing to carry.

  2. After the round

    Take one photo of the card. That's the only thing the app ever asks of you.

  3. In the clubhouse

    Confirm anything the read wasn't sure about, then see exactly where your strokes went, category by category, hole by hole.

One card in. The whole round, explained.

Five screens, from opening the app to understanding a single shot. This is the complete ritual on iPhone.

Your rounds stay together

Start a new card or return to any finished round. The running history makes patterns visible without asking you to track anything during play.

The four numbers that change how you practice, and nothing to distract from them. The best analytics tool is the one you actually use.

A note from the founder

I’ve spent my life trying to shoot lower scores, and the best players I know all understand exactly where their strokes go. But I never wanted a sensor in my glove or a watch buzzing over a putt. So I built the tool I wanted: the same strokes-gained math the pros use, from the paper card I already keep. The round stays the way it should be. The numbers come after.
