Its not about Strokes Gained as much as it’s about reducing Strokes Lost. DECADE FOUNDATIONS SUBSCRIPTION Since launching the DECADE App three years ago we have learned many things, not the least of which is that it can quickly make virtually anyone a much better player, and it’s a lot for younger or less experienced players to consume. The Elite version of the DECADE App was designed to replace the live DECADE Seminar which is over four hours long and intended for elite players. We did not anticipate all the interest it would generate with junior golfers and mid-handicap players. I guess we should have. With that in mind we have created DECADE Foundations to replace our Lite product to better serve that audience. Junior will drastically slow down the avalanche of information within the App. This will more appropriately match the Golf IQ of our subscribers. Over the course of six months the content within the App will walk a player through the basics of course management and mindset slowly morphing into the Elite version of strategy over time. The statistics portal will also start slow and build into a robust and easy to use portal DECADE ELITE SUBSCRIPTION required for GPS Stats Entry, Peer Strokes Gained Comparison and Custom Tailored Yardage Books. **DECADE account required to access content 6 Month DECADE Foundations Subscription available through App Store for $99.99 which is charged to your iTunes account upon purchase. The subscription auto-renews unless turned off at least 24-hours before the end of the current 6 month period. You can manage your payment details or cancel your membership in user's Account Settings. Terms of Use: https://www.birdiefire.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://www.birdiefire.com/privacy

Dive into the numbers behind you golf game like never before. DeepStats.Golf gives you the tools to find the answer to any question you have about your game. Do your golf balls and shoes really affect your driving stats? How close to the pin do you get when you chip vs flop around the green? How about only on downhill shots from the rough? Easy to use filters and custom charts allow you to go beyond what you thought was possible for your golf stats.   Data entry can be customized to your liking. If you don't care about a factor, like wind direction on your tee shots, simply turn it off and you never have to worry about it.
