See the hole before you play it. Sim2Course Golf is the golf GPS and caddie that shows every hole in 3D, reads every green and plans every shot from your own numbers. SEE EVERY HOLE IN 3D Walk any hole on a fully rendered 3D golf course: trees, water, bunkers and the real shape of the ground. Your caddie's plan is drawn on the hole, shot by shot, before you pull a club. GPS ON COURSES ACROSS THE GLOBE GPS yardages and satellite play on golf courses across the globe. Don't see yours in 3D? Request it in the app and we'll build it, reviewed for accuracy before it goes live. PLAN EVERY SHOT Your caddie runs on Sim2Course IQ, a golf strategy AI that plans every hole around the way you hit the ball. On the course, your caddie gives you the club, the carry, the aim and a one-line tip for the shot in front of you, factoring wind, lie, elevation and your own patterns. Before you leave the house, your caddie booklet lays out the whole course: the club off every tee, carry numbers, the landing window, where the trouble is and the side to miss on. READ EVERY GREEN Green contours, fall lines and a putt read on every green of every 3D course. Know the break before you walk on. YARDAGES ON YOUR WRIST The Apple Watch app puts CourseSense distances and the hole map on your wrist, logs each shot by GPS with the club you hit, and carries your caddie's plan. With your permission, Sim2Course reads your heart rate during a round and saves the round to Apple Health as a Golf workout. TRACK EVERY SHOT TO WHERE YOU AIMED Tap your target, hit the shot, tap where it finished. Sim2Course draws your aim line against your real result and builds your dispersion pattern for every club. No sensors to buy, nothing to clip on. PLAY WITH YOUR CREW Group rounds put everyone's shots on the same 3D hole with a live leaderboard and scorecard. Skins, Nassau, scramble, best ball or match play: every score is kept. COACH YOUR TEAM Coaches invite players; each player chooses to join and can leave any time. Coaches see rounds, stats and practice plans. NO SIGNAL? NO PROBLEM. Download a course at home and play the whole round in airplane mode. It syncs when you're back online. EVERY ROUND IS A MOVIE After the round, watch a recap film of every hole with every shot traced from tee to green. EVERY SHOT YOU'VE EVER HIT Your 3D range shows every club's pattern in one place, so practice goes to the shots that cost you strokes. THEN SETTLE IT IN THE GAME A mobile golf game on real rendered courses. Play your friends from anywhere, or get matched. KNOW WHAT COSTS YOU Scores, fairways, greens, putts and penalties, round after round, so you know what to work on next. PRACTICE ON THE SIM THIS WINTER. PLAY BETTER THIS SPRING. Import a simulator or launch monitor session and Sim2Course reads every shot in it. Each club gets its typical carry, a safe carry, the range 8 of 10 shots land in and the gap to the next club. Your caddie plans every hole from those measured numbers. The whole session plays back on your 3D range. Importing is free. ONE PLAN. EVERY FEATURE. Sim2Course Pro unlocks 3D play on the course.
