Hack Better

A simple golf tracker without the subscription. Track your rounds, learn your club distances, and get yardages from your Apple Watch or phone while you play.

This is a simple Golf Tracker. No in-app purchases - pay one price.

It can: -Store courses: names, pars/holes, green locations -Keep track of rounds: shots taken, clubs used, scores, averages -Use during play: shot distances, distance to green, score keeping -Club statistics: typical distances update as you use your clubs -Round statistics: rounds played, course records, averages -Experimental: Autoshot - automatic swing detection during rounds. Under active development. Originally I tried adding it for fun, but it works better than I would have thought so I’ve kept it around. I’m left handed, so its much better for us lefties-but I’m not done with it yet.

The first round I played this summer frustrated me that I don’t play enough to reliably know how far I hit my clubs, and I wanted a place to keep track of how well (or how poorly) I was doing. As I looked for apps to help with this, I was disappointed at the costs and subscription models. I built this app because I only golf a few times a year, usually at the same course, and paying a subscription to have access to yardage data from thousands of courses I’ll never play doesn't make sense to me. So instead when you sink a putt, the app notes your locations for the next time you play the course. I wanted to learn my club yardages without having to ask my partner which club I should use - so the app remembers for me how far I hit each club.

It’s my first app, first time doing anything like this. Hope you like it. I built it for me, enjoyed the process and figured if it can pay for the developer fees, that would be amazing.
