The Wolf Plus App is for those that enjoy a friendly wager on a golf course, love a little competition, and want to just enjoy the game. Wolf Plus takes all the pain out of keeping track of your group's golf score, dots won, other side bets, and stats for the round. Nothing worse than finishing a round and figuring up all the dots and money won/loss while your buddies are relaxing drinking a cold refreshment. So, for less than the cost of a couple golf balls; get the Wolf Plus App, enjoy your round, and focus on your game instead of keeping score. While, as its name implies, it keeps track of everything related to the game of Wolf as well as Nassau matches, it also is ideal for just keeping score, stats, and other side bets. *** The Wolf Plus App was created by golfers for golfers *** The user interface is purposely designed to be simple to use for quick and easy score entry. An emphasis in the design of the App was ease of use and sunlight readability. Stroke differential between players is automatically calculated based on their handicap index and slope of the tees playing. On each hole, the Wolf Plus App indicates how many strokes each player gets from the others. Then you simply enter how you are playing the hole (e.g. Team, Lone Wolf, Peeking Wolf, Blind Wolf), select your teammate, enter gross scores, and the Wolf Plus App does the rest. In the game setup, you determine what you are wagering per dot, if holes carry or not, how many dots each Wolf format is worth, and various side bets (e.g. greenies, fewest putts per round, 3+ putts and polies). You pick from your list of stored courses and select tees each person is playing. At the end of the round, the Wolf Plus App provides stats such as Adjusted Score (for inputting into your handicap system), total putts, number of 3 putts, Greens in Regulation, Putts for Greens in Regulation, and number of Fairways hit. All with minimal entry on each hole! *** Don't want to play Wolf, or don't have 4 players? no problem *** The Wolf Plus App is perfect to just keep track of your score and stats. Or, use it for keeping track of up to 6 Nassau matches! A handy feature is the App includes frequently encountered rules of golf and describes them in a clear, concise manner that you can quickly understand on the course. We all know there are numerous rules of golf, but generally there are just a couple that the average weekend golfer is a little unsure of (or never really understood). Think your buddy is taking a rather liberal drop from a cart path? Show him the App, force him to take the proper drop, and get a little dig in while you are doing it. The best part of the Wolf App is at the end of the round, you don't spend time figuring anything out. It immediately shows how much each player wins or loses, and you have more time to simply enjoy some post-round trash talking. *** Have fun playing Wolf (and Nassaus) and thanks for using the Wolf Plus App!
