See your tee shot arc and approach shot circle overlaid right on the satellite image of the hole you’re standing on. Take the guesswork out of where to aim. STROKES GAINED PREDICTOR Compare different club and target combinations to see the expected strokes gained outcome for each option. Should you hit driver or lay up with an iron? How aggressive should you aim at a tucked pin? The Predictor runs the math using your personal dispersion so you can make confident decisions instead of guessing. SHOT TRACKING & STROKES GAINED STATS Track every shot with GPS precision. Get shot by shot strokes gained breakdowns for driving, approach, short game, and putting.

Greenkeeper Crew
Read full descriptionHide full description
For the people who make golf possible. GKC is the network for golf course crews: greenkeepers, superintendents, mechanics, irrigation techs and course managers. Your work, your course, your name on it. FIRST LIGHT Post the job from the seat. Every post is stamped with the time you shot it, so the 5am starts speak for themselves. Work or general, photo or video. YOUR COURSE, YOUR CREW Every course has a page with its crew on it. Follow the courses you rate and see what other crews are doing. VERIFIED BY YOUR CLUB Ask your club to confirm you're on the crew. The tick means your employer vouched for you, which is why a GKC profile counts for more than a CV. BOARDS AND KIT REVIEWS Ask the trade about greens, machinery, irrigation, pests and disease. Read kit reviews written only by verified crew who have actually run the kit. JOBS Find greenkeeping jobs and apply with your GKC profile. Turn on Open to work and it shows on your profile. NOT ON A CREW? BECOME A SUPPORTER Watch the keepers at work and back the crews. Supporters can ask a course's crew or its club a question, ask the crews about their own lawn, thank a crew with a photo, report small things they spot on the course, and give 10 Putts a month, little thank-yous, to the crews they rate. MEMBERSHIPS Look around for free.
