Scenarios

The rounds that are not a normal Saturday

Specific situations, and what changes about how you plan the round. A club competition, a league night, a charity scramble, a golf trip, or a course you have never seen each ask for different decisions than your usual game. Every page below covers the same three things: what is actually different, what to settle before you tee off, and which holes to attack rather than survive once you are out there.

The rounds that need a different plan

• Charity Scramble: How to Keep the Team's Card

  One ball, one score, a shotgun start and a round that should stay out of your handicap. How to set a scramble up in the app, what to switch off, and what to do with it afterwards.

• Your First Golf Tournament: How to Prepare and Play It

  Entered your first tournament? What to set up before you go, what Competition Mode switches off, what the Rules say about your phone, and what the card is worth afterwards.

• Golf Trip Setup: Four Courses, Patchy Signal, Real Scores

  A golf trip through the app: checking every course exists before you fly, caching for no signal, resort cards that skew your stats, thin air, and what the week leaves on your record.

• League Night Golf: How to Set Up Nine Holes That Count

  Weekly league night, nine holes, same course. How to set the round up so it counts, how net scoring and stroke allocation work, and what a season of Tuesdays adds up to.

• Playing a New Course: What to Set Up Before You Arrive

  The product side of an unfamiliar course: finding it in the app, reading the card at home, getting a game plan built, whether the course is mapped, and what the round leaves behind.
