## What is handycap?

HandyCap is a golf handicap tracker built for casual golfers who want real stats without the stuffiness. Play and manage leagues with friends. There is so much more to come.

  TRACK YOUR HANDICAP
  Log rounds hole-by-hole or just enter your total score. HandyCap calculates both a WHS-style Index and our own HandyCap Index. A simpler
  projection designed for friendly league play. Watch your trend line evolve with every round. It's not that serious. It's just fun.

ROUND ROASTS
 After every round, get a brutally honest (and oddly poetic) critique of your performance. Share it to your story and let
 your friends know exactly how it went.

  SOCIAL SHARING
  Snap a photo from the course, and HandyCap overlays your stats, roast, and handicap trend line. Ready to share to Instagram, iMessage,
  or anywhere else. 

  WAGERS
  Challenge friends to friendly wagers. Send, accept, report results, and track your win/loss record right in the app. Push notifications
  keep everyone honest.

  LEAGUES
  Create Head-to-Head or Stroke Play leagues with friends. Track who's improving and who's buying drinks.

  FRIEND PROFILES
  See your friends' handicaps, recent rounds, wager stats, and more. Tap any name or photo in the app to visit their profile.
