Golf betting games without the headaches.

Play one game or ten. Across one group or many.
You just enter scores. GolfApp handles the rest.

More money changes hands in amateur golf than almost any other sport.

Not because it's reckless — because golf makes friendly competition accessible to everyone. GolfApp helps you play responsibly, settle up fairly, and keep every game honest.

Tournament-style & group games

Every format here is a stroke play variation — what changes is the team size and how many scores count.

All of them put the whole field on a live leaderboard: position, score to par, running total, and how many holes each team is through. The group still on the 1st tee can see exactly what's happening four holes ahead of them.

Stroke Play

1 v fieldTeams

Total strokes. The classic.

The way the tour plays it. Run it solo, in pairs, or as foursomes against the field — every team format below is built on it.

Net Best Ball

2-man teams

Two players, one score.

Each hole counts the lower of the two net scores. The game to build a trip or an outing around — layer Nassaus and skins on top of it.

2 Best Ball

4-man teams

Best two of four, every hole.

Four-man teams counting the two lowest net scores on each hole. One bad swing doesn't put the team out of it.

ChaChaCha

Best 1, best 2, best 3. Then again.

Four-man teams. Hole 1 counts the team's best ball, hole 2 the best two, hole 3 the best three — then hole 4 starts the cycle over.

Progressive Best Ball

Coming soon

The par sets the count.

Four-man teams counting one score on par 3s, two on par 4s, and three on par 5s.

Ryder Cup

Coming soon

Two sides. Many matches. One cup.

Captains pick their teams, then a whole slate of matches plays at once — singles, pairs, however you draw it up. Every match feeds one running team score, and GolfApp declares the winning side. The format clubs reach for when they put a member event together.

The bet you can't find a scorecard for.

Every game above resolves itself from the scores you enter. But the best bet of the day is usually the one somebody invents on the 4th tee — and no format covers that.

Mayhem is a blank text field. Write any bet you can describe, name a price, and send it to a friend. No rules to pick, no scorecard involved. It settles up with everything else at the end.
