First Tee Bet — Golf Scoring and Game Manager Tired of tracking complicated scoring on your scorecard, arguing over what happened 4 holes ago, and forgetting about presses and bonus points for closest to and sand saves? By the time you reach the 19th hole, it's a big mess. First Tee Bet is THE golf game management app built for groups who play together regularly and compete for bragging rights. Set up your round, track live scores hole by hole, and let the app handle the rest. ORGANIZE YOUR GOLF GROUP Create a group and invite your regular playing partners to join. Manage multiple groups, join other groups to keep track of all your golfing buddies. EASY GAME SET UP - Search thousands of real golf courses or create your own custom course with full hole-by-hole data - Choose tees with support for individual tee overrides per player (including women's tees) - Quick-add guest golfers - Select from built-in scoring rule sets or customize your own LIVE SCORING ON THE COURSE Score every hole in real time with a clean, mobile-first interface. Any player in the group can enter scores. The scoring engine automatically calculates net scores based on your Handicap Index® and stroke allocations. All scores sync in real time across every player's device, so the whole group stays up to the second. CATEGORY-BASED SCORING THAT HANDLES THE MATH Points are awarded across one or more categories: - low individual score - low team score - birdies (net or gross) - proximity to the pin - sand saves. The app tracks points per team across all categories automatically. No more mental math, no more disputes. PRESSES Add presses during the round to raise the stakes. The app manages press multipliers, tracks which holes they apply to, and can optionally reset on any hole. Once scores are submitted, presses lock to prevent accidental changes. Every press is logged so there's a clear record for everyone. UMBRELLA SCORING A fun and completely optional feature. When one team sweeps all categories on a hole, the app triggers an umbrella — doubling or tripling the points. You'll know when it happens: animated celebrations and trash talking messages that get more intense as the umbrellas pile up! USGA® INTEGRATION First Tee Bet is a “USGA® Authorized Handicap Data Affiliate”. Link your Handicap ID and the app will automatically retrieve and keep your Handicap Index® up to date along with your last 20 posted rounds. Completed games can also be posted directly to the GHIN® system right from the app! REAL GOLF COURSE DATA Search thousands of golf courses by name or your location with detailed tee, par, SLOPE®, Course Rating™, yardage, and hole-by-hole handicap index information.
