ThrowPrint is the disc golf stats app that tells you which disc is actually costing you strokes. Most scorecards just track your number. ThrowPrint tracks the why. Tag every throw by the disc you threw and the shot shape - hyzer, flat, or anhyzer - and ThrowPrint turns it into feedback that actually lowers your score. WHAT YOU GET - Per-disc charts - your good vs OB/miss rate for every disc in your bag, and the disc-and-shape combos leaking strokes (like "your driver on anhyzer goes OB most of the time"). - Per-hole heat-maps - a color-coded map of every hole on the courses you play most, so you see exactly where you lose strokes. - Satellite course maps - search 1,800+ courses and see the hole layout, par, distance, and live wind on a real satellite map as you play. - Mark your shots - drop each throw on the map automatically from your location, or tap to place it, and see your whole round replayed shot by shot. - Real distances by disc - ThrowPrint measures how far every disc actually flies for you, average and longest, so you finally know your gaps. No other app ties distance to the exact disc. - One-tap logging - your disc and shot shape stay selected, so most throws are a single tap. Fast enough to keep up with your card. - Smart tee defaults - your driver is pre-selected off the tee, then it follows your last disc on approaches and putts. - Multiple bags - a main bag, a glow bag, a tournament bag. - Live round scoring - your score vs par updates as you play, with a recap at the finish. - Works offline - log a full round, and reload a course map you have already played, with no signal. Your data stays on your phone. - No sensors, no hardware - just your phone and your bag. WHO IT'S FOR Whether you're grinding to break par or just want to know which disc to trust on the dogleg right, ThrowPrint shows you what to throw - and what's holding you back. FREE & PRO Free to log rounds and see your per-disc results.
