Hole-by-Hole Information

This page provides a short overview of the data you must submit in the stats section of the scorecard. We recommend that you do so each round for your stats to be accurate and comprehensive. In doing so, you’ll extract more useful information about your game.

Note: The symbol – – – indicates that you have not submitted any data. For example, if you did not get a penalty shot on a hole, you must select ‘0’ in the Penalty tile if you want statistics on penalties. Alternatively, the app won’t save any data.
