Read full description

Dragon Golf is the easiest way to keep your golf group's scores and friendly games, all in one place. SCORECARD & SCORE • Enter strokes hole by hole, fast and clear. • Colors by result (birdie, par, bogey…) with front, back and total. • "Card" view with every player, plus a large-text mode for the sun. YOUR GROUP'S GAMES • Nassau (front, back, match and medal) with automatic presses, carry and manual presses. • Team Nassau with foursomes, Round Robin and half-stroke handling. • Skins, jackpots on par 3s, units and the Crazy Nassau — a drawn hole order that turns the round upside down. • Strokes between players come from your shared history: the app remembers how you play against each of your friends. WHO OWES WHAT • When the round closes, the app settles everything: totals per player and the simplest set of payments. • Table cash box: register what goes in and out of the center of the table, with a running balance. THE DRAGON CADDIE • Ask golf rules by text or voice — it answers out loud, citing the official rule. • Send a photo of your lie (buried ball, doubtful drop) and it answers looking at your case. ORGANIZE LIKE A PRO • Draw Groups: build the day's groups by hand or with a live draw everyone sees. • Invite with a link or your QR code — friends join with one tap. • Notifications when someone adds you to a game or your round closes. • Tournaments with standings and tee times. HANDICAPS DONE RIGHT • WHS handicap index computed from your full history — the same on every phone. • Course handicap per tee, with each tee's own stroke index. YOUR COURSES • Build your own course list, import courses with all their tees, and star your favorites. In Spanish and English. Made by golfers, for golf groups that play together every week.
