D3 Golf is the first and only mobile way to play on-course golf side games with your friends. With the D3 Golf App, you can create challenges, invite players, track scoring, and check the leaderboard as you play. The app tracks everything for your skills challenge and figures out who won each hole and each challenge too. Finally, you don’t have to worry about calculating indexes, handicaps, course slopes, dots, and pops. The app does it all for you automatically as well as credits the game tokens to the winners. Play Nassau, Skins, Stableford or standard Stroke Play with DOTS or what some call JUNK over each game. It works just like your old paper score card only easier, no mistakes and no math with a live leaderboard for all players and full GPS hole-by-hole. The Patent-Pending D3 Golf Remote Game Technology removes time and place from the game of golf. Now you can play your friends anytime, anywhere within two weeks of each other on your actual round of golf. For example, player 1 played today in California, player 2 plays in Florida next week. The App manages the games and alerts the players to all outcomes. You compete hole by hole with the best net score to par. A par score on player 1’s first hole, beats player 2’s first-hole bogie. It’s that simple! The app takes care of it all. It's a whole new way to play, challenge and connect with friends even when apart. The app is approved to play in all 50 states excluding Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, lowa, Louisiana, Maryland and South Carolina where the Skill Challenge designation has not been approved yet. The D3 Golf App uses Geo-Fencing Technology to comply with all local state laws and blocks use where not approved.
