Fore is the social network for golfers, the modern clubhouse. Find your foresome, follow your friends' rounds, score live, and grow your golf community. Golf is one of the last places people still connect in person. But most of us do not have a country club, or the community that comes with one. So every round starts the same way: the same group chat, or showing up alone and hoping to get paired with someone decent. Fore is built to fix that. It is not a GPS, a swing analyzer, or another tracking app. It is a social network built specifically for golfers. THE CLUBHOUSE Your feed. See your friends' recent rounds, their scores hole by hole, and the moments worth talking about. Like, comment, and give someone a hard time about the back nine. CONNECT Meet golfers who actually match your game. Filter by handicap so you are playing with people at your level, by where they are based, or by industry to network on the course instead of over coffee. TEE TIMES Post an open seat in your group, or claim one in someone else's. Invite the members you want to play with, and see who is already in the group and what they play to before you commit. LIVE SCORING Score a round together on your phones. Everyone's card updates as you play, so the group sees where they stand on the walk to the next tee. Stroke play, match play, scramble, Wolf, Nassau and skins. EVENTS Run a real competition: a scramble, skins, match play, or a full Ryder Cup with teams, sessions and a running points board. Describe your event in plain English and Fore builds the structure for you, pairings and side games included. LEADERBOARD A monthly points ladder for the whole club, earned hole by hole from real scores, plus head-to-head records against the people you play with most. YOUR HANDICAP Fore calculates an index using the World Handicap System method once you have posted enough rounds, so the numbers on your card mean something. OPEN TO PLAY Tell the club when you are free and Fore matches you with open tee times and members looking for a game. MEMBERSHIP Every member is reviewed before they join, because a community is only as good as the people in it. Request access in the app and we will get back to you quickly. Find your foresome. Grow your golf community.
