Ever finish a hole and wonder, "Was that five strokes... or was it six?" Golf already gives you enough to worry about. Your slice, the bunker on the right, whether your buddy will ever admit he's out of mulligans. The last thing you need is a scoring app that makes things more complicated. Par 5 is golf scoring made hilariously simple. Tap once to add a stroke, double-tap if things got ambitious. No multi-step menus, no hunting through screens, no excuses to stop paying attention to the game you're already losing. Your Apple Watch does the heavy lifting. Tap the circle on your wrist to count a stroke. Double-tap to take one back. Swipe to move holes. A persistent banner keeps Par 5 visible on your watch face the whole round so you never lose your place. Your phone can stay in the cart where it belongs. Know the wind before you swing. Live wind speed, direction, and gusts pulled from real-time weather data. The compass arrow rotates as you move so it always points into the wind relative to where you're standing. It won't fix your swing, but at least you'll have something to blame the bad shots on. Your course, found in seconds. GPS finds nearby courses automatically. Pick yours, choose your tees, and you're on the first hole. No typing, no searching, no subscription to a course database you'll use four times a year. Everything you actually need: Single tap to record a stroke, double-tap to remove it Putting mode: every tap counts as a stroke and a putt Mulligans and penalties tracked per hole 9 or 18 holes with tee color selection Round history with complete scorecards Full iPhone and Apple Watch sync, automatically Works without a signal, because courses have terrible reception Your data stays yours. Scores are stored on your device. Nothing leaves your phone. Par 5 keeps your last 20 scorecards, because honestly, who wants to relive more bad rounds than that. Completely free. No subscription, no ads, no "premium features" locked behind a paywall. A small gift from one golfer to another. Golf is already hard enough. Your scoring app shouldn't be.
