How it works

From signed-up to first tee shot in an afternoon.

No setup nightmares. No spreadsheets. Five short steps, and your trip is live.

  1. 01

    Create your trip

    Name it. Pick the dates. Set your two team colors. Done in 30 seconds — you’re the trip admin.

  2. 02

    Invite your buddies

    Drop in emails or share a join link. Players claim their slot the first time they log in. The app stays usable even if half of them never sign in.

  3. 03

    Add your courses

    Snap a photo of the scorecard, AI reads the par, yardage, and stroke index for all 18 holes. Edit anything that doesn’t look right.

  4. 04

    Schedule your cup

    Five rounds, six rounds, whatever you want. Pair tee times, assign matchups, mark the format (2v2, singles, scramble).

  5. 05

    Plan the surrounding chaos

    Flights, shuttles, group dinners, the post-round bar stop. Everything lands on one shared schedule next to the golf.

Feature · Schedule

The whole trip on one day-by-day timeline.

Tee times, matchups, the welcome dinner, the post-round bar stop — stitched together so nobody has to ask “what time are we doing what.”

  • Tee times with matchups, pairings, and handicaps
  • Flights, dinners, and shuttles live on the same timeline
  • Day tabs to jump straight to today

Feature · Live scoring

The leaderboard that fits in your back pocket.

Real match-play math. DORMIE, AS, 3&2, all of it. Handicap strokes auto-allocated to the hardest holes. Cup score on top, individual leaderboard below.

  • Team total updates the second a hole is entered
  • Net match-play scoring, even for 2v2 best ball
  • Closeouts (3&2, 4&3) computed automatically

Feature · The feed

Trash talk, photos, and receipts.

A team chat built for the trip — not for productivity. Post brags, drop photos, react with whatever you want. Auto-moderated for the obvious stuff so admins don’t have to babysit.

  • Hole-tagged photos and videos
  • Emoji reactions on every post
  • Becomes the source material for your post-trip recap

Feature · Arcade portraits

NBA Jam-style player portraits.

Upload your photo. The AI hands back a 1994-NBA-Jam-digitizer version of you — pixelated, transparent background, ready to drop on a team-color matchup card. Used on every face-to-face matchup screen.

  • Faithful to the source — same face, same hair, same hat
  • Transparent PNG — composites cleanly over any team color
  • Gold-frame roster cards with rating bars per player
