8 golf betting games — automatic settlement
Set up your game before the first tee. The app tracks every bet, applies handicap strokes, and shows exactly who owes what at the end of the round.
Nassau
Three separate bets: Front 9, Back 9, and Overall 18. Optional auto-press when 2 down.
Skins
Lowest score wins the skin. Supports carry-overs, handicaps, and score multipliers (2x birdie, 4x eagle).
Match Play
Win holes to win the match. Most holes won takes the pot. Handicap strokes applied automatically.
Wolf
Alternating wolf each hole. Wolf holes worth double stakes. Perfect for 4-player groups.
Bingo Bango Bongo

Earn a point for hitting fairway AND green. Stakes per point. No carry-over. Great for all skill levels.
And One
Stroke play with automatic press when 2 down. Keeps every hole competitive.
Low Medal

What golfers say about the scorecard app
"Finally a golf scorecard app that handles Nassau automatically. No more arguing about who owes what at the 19th hole. The settlement screen is perfect."
"I've tried a lot of golf apps. Short Grass is the only one that does live scoring AND posts to my handicap AND runs Skins all in one place. And it's free."
"The Wolf game is spot-on. It tracks who's the wolf each hole, applies the double stakes, and settles everything at the end. My group uses it every Saturday."
