Accounting for wind, elevation, and air density, it shows you the right club off the tee, the smartest target line, and the misses to avoid across thousands of courses worldwide. Keep your phone in your pocket or play with Apple Watch—CNDR detects your shots and putts automatically as you walk the course. With live distances on your wrist and Lock Screen, your round logs itself in the background so you can stay focused on the next shot. After the round, see exactly where you gained and lost strokes. Review shot-by-shot maps, real dispersion spreads, approach proximity, and scoring trends as you work toward your goal handicap.
