## What is ParTab?

ParTab runs the golf games your group actually plays — and settles the money without the parking-lot math.

Set up a competition in minutes: pick the course, choose the games, enter your field, and share a six-character code. Everyone scores from their phone, the leaderboard updates live, and when the round ends, the payouts are already computed.

GAMES GOLFERS ACTUALLY PLAY
Skins (gross, net, or birdies-only), Team Best Ball (including 1 Gross + 1 Net), Low Gross, Low Net, Chicago, Stableford, Nassau, Banker, Wolf, 6-6-6, Bingo Bango Bongo, and more. Set the pot, the places, and the split — ParTab does the rest.

LIVE LEADERBOARDS
Every posted card moves the board in real time — standings, skins won, team results, and the money, updating while the groups are still on the course. Tap any player for their hole-by-hole card; tap any team to see exactly whose ball counted on every hole.

REAL SCORECARDS, SMART SCORING
Print professional bi-fold scorecards for your event — player names, handicap dots, local rules, and a QR code on the back. When the round's done, scan the QR, photograph the finished card, and ParTab reads the handwritten scores for you. Check them, post them, done.

HANDICAPS DONE RIGHT
Enter a handicap index and ParTab converts it to a course handicap for the tees being played. Stroke dots land on the right holes — even on courses with combined nines. Plus handicaps handled properly.

GPS & COURSE MAPS
Hole-by-hole satellite maps with distances, hole shapes, and tap-to-measure for any shot.

YOUR GOLF LIFE, IN ONE PLACE
Saved players for one-tap round setup. Career stats, achievements, and money won and lost by course. Everything syncs between the app and golfpartab.com, so the organizer can build events at a desk and the group can watch the leaderboard from any phone browser.

Whether it's a Saturday foursome or a 12-man buddies trip, ParTab keeps the games straight, the scores honest, and the money right.
