Full description

GHIN is the app built for golfers by the USGA — post scores, track your Handicap Index®, play with GPS, and see the stats that show how your game is trending. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Post scores — total score or track hole-by-hole with advanced stats • Play a round with GPS: simplified setup, richer course graphics, one-handed scoring, or switch to a simple digital Scorecard if you'd rather skip GPS • See your game in the new Stats section: recent trends, score history, hole-by-hole, advanced stats, and course-specific performance • Set up and play fair matches against other golfers with a Handicap Index — including front nine / back nine / overall results • Compete on virtual leaderboards through Challenges, at select courses through your Allied Golf Association GETTING STARTED & UPGRADES • Start with a Free Trial: post 3 scores to get an Estimated Handicap Range, and continue posting for 30 days after that • Enhanced GPS is available as a premium upgrade — Green Maps and front/back yardages on your phone. • Membership through an Allied Golf Association is required for full app functionality

What's new

In this release, we made several enhancements and bug fixes to improve the GHIN app experience: • Improved stability while GPS loads • All junior golfers will now inherit Enhanced GPS from guardians
