Stop tapping buttons between shots. Golfer's passive GPS engine automatically detects where you stop on the course, builds a shot-by-shot map of your round, and handles the stats - so you can focus on playing.

No smartwatch. No Bluetooth device. No manual logging. Just your phone in your pocket and golf in your hands.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🏌️ AUTOMATIC SHOT DETECTION

Golfer runs a background GPS state machine that monitors your movement throughout the round. When you stop for 60+ seconds - the natural pause when you arrive at your ball - the app logs a predicted shot location. Walk off the green and your hole is already mapped.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🗺️ SHOT MAP EDITOR

After each hole, review your shot map on a satellite aerial or rendered-terrain view with real elevation. Drag any pin to its true location. Add a shot you walked past quickly. Delete a false stop from a cart detour. Distances recalculate instantly using precise GPS coordinates. Spot a mistake after the round? Every hole stays editable.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🌬️ KNOW THE REAL NUMBER

Live wind and course weather feed a plays-like distance, so the yardage in front of you accounts for what the conditions are actually doing to the ball.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🎒 YOUR CLUBS, YOUR YARDAGES

Keep your bag and its stock yardages in the app, then pull up a quick club reference for any distance mid-round without leaving the hole.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

📊 POST-HOLE STATS IN SECONDS

The confirmation screen pre-fills your score from detected shots. Tap to confirm:

Fairway hit (Yes/No)
Green in regulation (Yes/No)

Bunker visit

Whole flow under 30 seconds per hole.

👥 CART PARTNER SCORING

Riding with a buddy? Add them at round setup. After each hole, log their score and putts in seconds alongside yours. When the round ends, share their scorecard with one tap. If they don't have the app, the link sends them straight to Google Play.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

📤 YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS

Rounds, scores, and shot locations live on your device and work offline. Analytics are anonymous and can be switched off in Settings, and you can delete everything with one tap.
