How to create tees

To create a tee, find your course using the "Course Search" box and click on the "Courses & Scorecards" link. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the link: "Click here to add a new tee for XXXXX".

On the blank scorecard add the name of the tee e.g. Yellow, Red, White, Blue etc, the number of holes (9 or 18), the Standard Scratch Score for the tee and if you have it, the slope.

If your club does not have 9 or 18 holes e.g. 12 etc. please contact as at help@golfshake.com and we can amend the card to show the correct number of holes.

Go through adding the yardage, par and Stroke Index for each hole. Before hitting submit, please check the total yardage and Par is correct to your scorecard.

If you would like to use this card again in the future make sure there is a tick in the box next to "Click to auto add to favourites" this will make it quicker and easier to add your rounds in the future.

Click "submit".

You can then go back to your course and view the scorecard and start entering your round.

Adding a scorecard for the front or back 9 holes

To Add the front or back nine holes go to your course and at the bottom of all the scorecards click on the link "Click here to add a new tee for XXXXX". This will bring up an 18 hole card but, name the hole "Yellow F9" or similar to differentiate it from other tees, make sure in the holes box you enter 9. Then enter the yards and Par as normal. For the SI Divide each by 2 and round up, this will give you the order in 1 - 9 rather than 1 - 18.
