Puttsy is a golf scorecard and a practice journal. Log a round in under a minute, then let your own numbers tell you where the strokes go. No GPS. No account. No AI. Your rounds stay on your phone. WHAT IT DOES • Log a round three ways — a total, hole by hole, or shot by shot: tap the clubs in the order you played them • Putts, penalties and pars on any hole. Partial rounds are welcome and stay out of your averages, but every hole still counts • Practice journal — driving, irons, chipping, putting, bunker, on-course. Minutes, balls, a note • Course notebook — save the courses you play, set each hole's par, keep a strategy note hole by hole • Your record — best, average of the last five, score and putts trends, three-putts per round • 18 holes, 9 holes and pitch & putt are counted apart, so every round you log shows up somewhere • Hardest holes, front nine vs back nine, scoring by par type • Per hole: your average against par, your last ten times on it, and your tee clubs compared side by side with their range — not just their average • Calendar — your months of golf at a glance • Coach report — a PDF of your record, charts included, ready to hand to whoever teaches you • Share card — your season, or a single round, as an image HONEST BY DESIGN Every number here is computed from what you logged. Nothing is predicted, estimated or filled in, and every insight prints the sample it rests on: "over 6 rounds", not "trust us". Clubs are only compared on holes of the same par, because a driver comes out on the long ones. We hand you facts, never advice — "on 7 you average 5.2 with the 3-wood and 6.1 with the driver". What that means is your call. WHO IT IS FOR Golfers who want a record, not a caddie. If you already have a rangefinder you like, keep it — Puttsy is the scorecard next to it. If you have played for ten years and none of it is written down, this is where it starts. Puttsy will not lower your score. It will show you, honestly, what your score has been doing.
