Features
No feature here exists just to fill a list. Each one is the direct answer to something that goes wrong on a real golf day.
Handicaps
Handicap Index to Course Handicap to Playing Handicap, using the full Appendix C allowance table. The allowance is applied to the unrounded figure, not the rounded one, because rounding twice quietly gives the wrong answer roughly a quarter of the time.
Once a session locks, every player's handicap is calculated and snapshotted. It never silently recalculates underneath a live score, so a number a player saw at the start of the round is still the number that decides the result at the end.
Running a two-day event where good rounds earn a cut and poor ones earn a boost? Set the scale once and apply it between rounds, with an easy manual override for any individual player.
Every player can see exactly how their own number was built: Handicap Index, Slope, Course Rating, the allowance percentage, all the way to the final figure. Nothing hidden behind a black box.
Formats
Built and tested, not just listed:
Running the day
Search any England Golf-affiliated club and pull in the actual Course Rating, Slope and stroke index for each hole. Clubs with several courses or nines show every option clearly, not merged into one confusing entry.
A single wizard: name the event, pick the course, choose your formats, add players, build tee times. Nothing goes live to players until you're ready.
Fill a whole field into tee groups in one action, spaced how you like, sequential or shotgun-style off every hole at once.
Players scan a QR code, find their own name, and check their handicap and tee before the day starts. No spreadsheet chasing.
Twilight nine? Real shotgun start off hole 11? Set the length and starting hole per session and the stroke allocation adjusts itself correctly.
Better-ball sides, shared-ball sides and best-N-of-4 sides are each scored the way that format actually works, not forced into one generic leaderboard shape.
On the day
Either everyone enters their own hole, or one marker scores the whole group. Both work on the same screen, and disagreements are flagged, never silently resolved.
The organiser can correct any score from their own phone the moment a dispute comes up. Settled on the tee, not by email a week later.
Every past event is archived, and every golfer's own round history stays with their profile permanently, along with their handicap and tee at the time.
Players mark their own round finished, and the leaderboard shows exactly who's done and who's still out, live.
The live leaderboard is public. Open it and click through a real day.
