LEARN MY GAME
Lifetime Unlock adds personal shot tracking and analysis.
Select the club and shot type before playing, and Bad Caddie records the result alongside the available course, location and weather information. Over time, its recommendations adapt to the distances you actually achieve on the golf course—not simply generic figures or optimistic driving-range numbers.
Review each club’s distance history using colour-coded graphs showing:
• Recorded shot distance
• Changing performance over time
• The representative distance used by Bad Caddie
• Weather and playing conditions
• Unusual or unreliable shots
• Whether you followed or ignored the recommendation
• What happened when Bad Caddie suggested a particular club
Lifetime Unlock is a single purchase with no subscription or recurring charge.
COURSES AND MAPPING
Search for golf courses and download available hole information. If a course is missing or incomplete, Bad Caddie can help build a private personal course record with minimal effort while you play.
Record tee and green positions automatically, and optionally mark bunkers, water, trees and fairway turning points. Imported course information can supplement incomplete mapping without replacing better existing data.
Unlocked file tools include:
• Importing compatible course files
• Exporting personally captured course information
• Exporting round logs and scorecards
• Exporting shot statistics for further analysis
APPLE WATCH
The companion Watch app keeps the important information immediately available:
• Current hole, par and yardage
• Distance to the pin and from the tee
• Plan or perspective map
• Player position and hazards
• Suggested club and shot type
• Score entry and scorecard access
• Synchronisation with the iPhone app
Bad Caddie provides guidance, records what happened and learns from your actual game.
Good advice. Bad attitude.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• Optional satellite imagery is now available for Plan maps on iPhone and Apple Watch.
• Satellite maps should display the complete hole with the tee near the bottom, green near the top and the player shown in orange.
• Perspective maps automatically use the graphical map instead of satellite imagery.
• The Play header now includes the published hole yardage. Medal tees correctly use Yellow yardages.
• Map information includes distance to the pin, distance travelled from the tee and nearest hazard where available.
• Apple Watch satellite scaling and tee/green visibility have been improved.
• Driver recommendations are restricted to the tee; 3 Wood is the longest normal fairway recommendation.
• The Play and Round Setup layouts have been tightened to provide more map space.
• Finish and Archive Round is available again when an active round prevents selecting another course.
