CADDIE BOOK This is a golf caddie book built on one idea: you can't improve a game you don't truly understand. So instead of typing numbers into boxes, you log every shot by tapping where it actually went — and watch the patterns in your game come into focus, round after round. TAP-FIRST Logging a hole takes seconds. Tap the fairway to place your drive. Tap the green to mark how close your approach finished. Tap a distance lane to record each putt as made or missed. No menus, no keyboards — just a fast, visual way to capture what really happened. SEE YOUR DISPERSION, NOT JUST YOUR SCORES • Drive dispersion — see where your tee shots scatter left, center, and right • Approach groupings — track how close you're hitting it from every distance • Putting by distance — know your true make percentage from 3, 10, 15, 25+ feet • Every shot is placed in space, so your tendencies become impossible to ignore STATS THAT DO THE THINKING FOR YOU Greens in regulation, fairways hit, up-and-downs, and scrambling are all derived automatically from your shots — and you can always override them with a tap. Score with a par-relative grid that shows birdies, pars, and bogeys at a glance. WATCH YOUR GAME IMPROVE OVER TIME The lifetime stats view is where the work pays off: • Scoring averages and per-par performance • GIR, FIR, and up-and-down trends • Over-time sparklines for scoring, greens, and putts • Score distribution and approach-distance breakdowns • Filter by your clubs and recent rounds to spot what's really changing REFLECT AFTER EVERY ROUND A quick post-round review captures what went well, what didn't, and what to take to the range — turning each round into a deliberate step forward. PRIVATE AND LOCAL FIRST Your rounds live on your device. No account, no sign-up, no data shared. BEAUTIFULLY ANALOG Hand-drawn targets, ink-on-paper styling, and a clean editorial look make tracking your game feel less like a spreadsheet and more like keeping a journal of your progress.
