PocketCaddie (PC) is a golf automation app made by someone with a +25 handicap. A big reason that I shoot so many double and triple bogeys (apart from the 3-4 putts) is that I go into many shots uninformed of a few things:
- Where do I place the ball in my stance?
- Which foot should I place my weight on?
- Should I swing inside/out or outside/in?
- Am I suppose to chop at this ball?
You get the picture... Very soon, PC will make you feel like an experienced golfer.
How does it work?
1. Track your golf rounds/scores just like you would on a physical scorecard
2. Track your shots and their distances/shapes/etc
3. The in-app golf caddie will start to offer suggestions on how to play each round - Im thinking basic things such as how to swing the club for now.
Eventually, there will be course-specific guidance such as:
1. "The last three times you tried to outdrive the water, you went right in... Youve been hitting your 4-iron consistently. How about trying that instead?"
At this point, number 1 and 2 are available in the live version. #3 is also available but in a basic form.
P.S.,
PC only has golf courses in the Philadelphia area. If you would like to test it out then let us know which courses to add! Please email [email protected] and we will get them into the app within 1-2 business days.
