Short Grass is the free digital golf scorecard that scores every hole, tracks fairways, GIR, and putts, runs your side bets, and updates your USGA handicap — all from your phone.
Score, track, bet, and improve — all from one free app.
Short Grass turns your phone into a full digital scorecard. Tap in your score after each hole and watch your running total update instantly — no pencil, no paper, no math errors.
Go beyond just the score. Track fairways hit, greens in regulation, and putts per hole to get a real picture of your game. Detailed stats help you identify exactly where strokes are being lost.
Never lose track of who made the birdie or who got the sandie. Short Grass tracks all the junk your group plays — birdies, sandies, greenies, and more — in real time during the round.
Post your scorecard and your USGA Handicap Index updates automatically. Short Grass uses the official World Handicap System formula — no GHIN fee, no separate app, no manual entry.
Snap a photo of your paper scorecard and Short Grass reads it automatically. OCR technology pulls in your hole-by-hole scores so you can post a round in seconds without retyping everything.
Share a link and anyone can follow your scorecard in real time — hole by hole, bet by bet — without downloading an app. Perfect for letting family track you during a tournament.
Every round you post is saved in your profile — hole-by-hole scores, stats, notes, and weather. Go back and review any round you've ever played, compare courses, and track your improvement over time.
Nassau, Skins, Low Medal — set up your bets before the round and Short Grass tracks them automatically as you enter scores. No separate app, no mental math, no arguments at the 19th hole.
