DuffMate

Now on the App Store. Automatic shot counting for Apple Watch — no buttons, no scorecard, just golf.

"Was that a 6 or a 7!?" - Duffmate figures it out.

DuffMate counts your golf shots. Full swings are detected automatically — so you can keep your focus on your golf round.

Wear your Apple Watch. Swing. DuffMate feels the motion and logs the shot. Tap in your putts and the score is recorded.

WHAT DUFFMATE DOES

• Automatic shot detection — Developed by a fighter aircraft flight control designer with a wife learning the game, the Watch's motion sensors recognize the golf swing and does the counting. Practice swings and cart bumps mostly don't fool it. When one slips through, a quick tap fixes it.

• GPS distance to the green — yardage to the front, middle, and back on every hole. Distance from your last shot is provided, a big help for learning club distances.

• Live wind — speed and direction to the hole on your wrist before you pick a club.

• Putts, your way — tap to log putts separately from your shots. Turn them off if you'd rather not track them.

• Real-time sync — your scorecard and shot history update to your iPhone as you play, hole by hole.

• Scorecard & shot map — after the round, see your full scorecard with saved driving distances on par 4/5's. A satellite map shows where each full shot was taken.

• Stats & personal bests — round history, scoring trends, best rounds, and personal records, all on your phone.

WHAT YOU NEED

An Apple Watch and an iPhone. No extra sensors, no extra gadgets, no subscriptions.

YOUR PRIVACY

Your rounds live on your iPhone and Watch. There are no accounts to create, no data sold, and no tracking. DuffMate reaches out for two things only: weather data for your round, and looking up your course. That's it.

DuffMate is made for golfers who want to devote more focus to their round and less focus on counting strokes. And oh by the way - the app has features that the low handicappers depend on.
