About

TheCard

Features
Read full description

The Scorecard is the golf app your regular group actually needs. Handicaps, side-game math, GPS distances — it handles the boring parts so you can focus on your round. PLAY WITH YOUR REGULARS Set up a foursome in seconds, pick from 17 game formats (stroke, match, Skins, Nassau, Stableford, RMZ, Ten-Ball, Super-Rollover, plus 8 team formats like Best Ball, 2 of 3, 3-4-5, and more). The math runs itself. Live scoring for the whole group on one card. CADDIE MODE Full shot-by-shot tracking with GPS distances. Club, type, and power for every shot. Playback the whole hole on your saved-round view. Optional — turn it on only when you want the detail. BUILT-IN HANDICAPS Add your handicap index once. The Scorecard computes course handicaps at each tee using the standard WHS formula. MULTI-GROUP ROUNDS Playing with more than one foursome? Turn on Multi-group event during setup. Every other group's scorekeeper joins with a 6-character code (or scans the QR from your screen), and their scores land on the same live leaderboard. QUICK COURSE ADD Snap a photo of any scorecard. The app extracts par, tees, yardages, and slope, so you can add a new course in seconds instead of typing it in. YOUR ROUNDS, YOUR STATS Every saved round shows the full scorecard, the leaderboard for that group, and (if you used Caddie) the shot-by-shot playback. The Stats tab tracks rounds played, average to par, hole distribution, most-played courses, and best round. NO ADS. NO SELLING YOUR DATA. NO NAGGING. Sign in with Apple or email. Delete your account inside the app whenever you want. Read our full privacy policy at thescorecard-app.golf/privacy.
