Golf is better together. Mulligan Crew gives your regular group one place to score rounds, run a season, organize a trip, and keep the stories that usually disappear in the group chat. ONE SCOREKEEPER. THE WHOLE GROUP. Start a round, choose the golfers, and keep the scorecard from one phone. Friends can join with a code or QR to follow live without taking over scoring. If service drops, the scorecard stays on the scoring phone and can finish syncing when the connection returns. BUILD YOUR CREW'S SEASON Turn ordinary Crew rounds into a season-long competition. Crew Cup uses hole-by-hole net Stableford, counts each golfer's best five regular results, and ends with a personal Championship finale. Side-game points create comeback chances without replacing the golf. RUN THE GOLF TRIP Plan tee times, group golfers, assign scorekeepers, follow the live Trip table, mark Championship groups, and close the Trip into a permanent recap. Guests can be planned before they download the app and claim their place later. MORE THAN A SCORECARD Save the Moments, friendly challenges, Beer stories, gross and net results, course history, Crew records, and Trip finishes that make the round worth remembering. Share a polished Round Story or Trip Story when the golf is done.
