ROUNDS
• Log the total, or score hole by hole: strokes, putts, fairways, greens in regulation and penalties.
• Out and In totals, and a scorecard with your birdies, bogeys and doubles marked.
• Notes, a feel rating, photos and videos for every round.
• Scan a paper scorecard: take a photo and the hole scores are read on your iPhone for you to check.
• Golf workouts recorded with the Workout app on Apple Watch show up ready to become rounds, with the date filled in.
HANDICAP ESTIMATE
• Uses the World Handicap System formula: the best 8 of your last 20 rounds, with nine-hole rounds paired.
• See your trend, which rounds count, which one drops out next and what score would bring your estimate down.
• Course handicap for each set of tees, net score and Stableford points.
• Have an official Handicap Index from your club? Enter it and Golf Journal uses it for course handicap, net and Stableford.
It's an estimate to follow your game, not an official Handicap Index.
COURSES
• Tees with course rating, slope, par and yardage, and a scorecard with par and stroke index for every hole.
• Look up courses near you or by name. Course data comes from OpenStreetMap.
• Your average and best score at each course.
PRACTICE
• Log practice sessions: range, putting, chipping, bunker, on course, lessons and more, with time, balls and notes.
• Keep your swing cues and drills from one session to the next.
• Start the practice timer and fill in the rest when you finish.
• Turn a round's notes into a plan for your next session.
INSIGHTS
• How often you make birdie, par, bogey and worse, and how you score on par 3s, 4s and 5s.
• Your hardest holes, your scoring by course and by month, and where your practice time goes.
• Set a goal, such as breaking 90 or getting down to 15, and see how far off it you are.
ON ALL YOUR DEVICES
• iCloud sync between your devices. No account to create; your diary stays on your devices and in your iCloud.
• Widgets for your handicap estimate and your last round.
• Siri and Shortcuts: "Log round", "Log practice", "What's my handicap".
• A reminder when you haven't logged a round for a while.
• Yards or meters.
