SkillSpot is purposely designed for every skill level as a golf improvement system, not just another scorecard, swing analyzer, or stat tracker. It has those too, because of course it does, but the full loop comes with your own coach: Mo. Meet Mo: Mo is your coach, caddie, and training partner from the couch to the course; from the range to the round; from the window to the....you get the point. Ask Mo what to work on next, build a practice plan around the time and space you actually have, prepare for your next round, and turn every scorecard into a clear next plan. Choose Your Coaching Style: Muni Mo keeps it loose. Tour Mo gets analytical. Mo Respect brings the edge. Mo Jr. keeps it encouraging. Spot the Problem: Film or upload your swing and Mo analyzes your movement, detects common faults like early extension or sway, and maps them to drills. You can also voice note a post-round recap, choose pain points manually, or upload past lesson notes so Mo coaches from your actual golf history. Train With a Plan That Fits Your Life: Got 15 minutes? Backyard only? Indoor setup? Short game area? Mo builds drills around your available time, practice location, playing level, and current limitations. Log a sore back or strained knee and Mo adjusts your plan. Build Your Game Over Time: Track the six main parts of your game – Putting Short Game Approach Play Tee Shots Mental Game Course Management Each category has its own Skill Vitality score. Practice well and it grows. Ignore it and it fades. See where faults return, where breakthroughs happen, and which drills actually move your game forward. Play With a Plan: Scan a paper scorecard or set up your round in the app. Mo uses your recent trends, club distances, course layout, weather, and scoring patterns to build a hole-by-hole game plan. During the round, track scores and quick stats like fairways, greens, up and downs, saves, putts, and penalties. Use your Apple Watch to keep score from your wrist, check your hole strategy, and leave your phone in the cart between shots. When the round ends, Mo turns what happened into your next training plan. Play Together: Create group scorecards, invite friends already on SkillSpot Golf, and play competitive formats including Stroke Play, Match Play, Skins, Scramble, Best Ball, Nassau, Stableford, Wolf, and Custom (set awards and penalties, score them live, track the leaderboard, and save your rules for next time). Chase Your Next Breakthrough: New to golf? The Starter Loop walks you from couch to course with structured milestones. Trying to break 100, 90, or 80? Challenger Loops give you multi-stage practice tests with scoring, recaps, and shareable accomplishments. Have a tournament coming up? Tell Mo the date, course features, and holes you dread. Mo reverse-engineers your preparation from today to tee time. Know Your Number: SkillSpot calculates a WHS-style handicap estimate from your logged rounds so you always have a working number between official postings. Note: only an authorized golf club, association, or GHIN record can issue an official Handicap Index. Test Your Rules Knowledge: Every day, Tour Mo gives you a new rules scenario with three choices, one right call, and an explanation that makes it stick. Want more? Head to the Rules Range and keep going. Subscriptions: Access all features with Monthly or Annual Membership. Notes: Mo is AI. Mistakes are possible. Practice safely, use good judgment, and adjust as needed. Terms of service: skillspotgolf.com/terms Privacy policy: skillspotgolf.com/privacy
