The games inside the game.

The side games golfers have played for a century — scored live, hole by hole, while you play. For pride, for points, or for money. Golf Challenges does the tracking, the maths and the settling up. You just play golf.

Your group, your stakes

Pride. Points. Or money.

Every game works all three ways. Run a Nassau for bragging rights, a Stableford for points, or put real money on the line — the app scores it identically and only the ending changes.

Nothing

Play the game for the game. No tally, no settling — just the format, called live while you play.

+24 pts

Points

Keep a running score without money changing hands. Perfect for societies, juniors and the family scramble.

+$40

Money

Set a stake in your own currency. Every result sums to zero, and the app tells you exactly who pays whom.

Scored while you swing

You play the golf.
It plays the accountant.

  • The match rides with you. A live strip on the scoring screen shows where you stand — front, back, overall, and against each opponent — without leaving the hole you're on.
  • Handicaps, allocated properly. Strokes fall by stroke index, scramble teams get combined allowances, and the card settles net or gross — your call.
  • Presses that announce themselves. Automatic presses open when someone falls far enough behind — and the app warns you they compound before you switch them on.
  • Settlement, done. Finish the round and get the result as a sentence, the final ledger, who pays whom — and a card worth sharing to the group chat.

Six formats, built in

Know one. Learn the other five.

Every game ships with a plain-English guide and a worked example, so nobody on the tee has to admit they don't know how Wolf works.

01

Nassau

Three matches in one round: front nine, back nine, and the overall. The classic — with automatic and manual presses.

02

Skins

Low score takes the hole. Ties carry the pot forward, so the late holes get expensive.

03

Stableford

Points per hole against par. Blow-up holes stop hurting — settle on the difference.

04

Best Ball

Two teams, each counting its best score per hole, played as match play.

05

Scramble

One ball per team, with proper combined handicap allowances worked out for you.

06

Wolf

The wolf rotates every hole — pick a partner or go it alone for the biggest swing in golf.

New to all of it? There's a basics guide too — par, stroke index, handicaps, and what "halved" actually means.

No arguments at the nineteenth

The numbers just add up.

Handicap strokes, presses that compounded, skins that carried three holes — the stuff that starts arguments. Golf Challenges keeps the card straight while you play, so when the last putt drops everyone already knows where they stand.

The card builder's party trick

Photograph the scorecard.
It reads the course.

Course not in the directory? Point the camera at the paper card. On-device text recognition reads the pars, stroke indexes, tee yardages, rating and slope — then opens everything in the builder for you to check. Nothing is saved until you say so.
