Also played a course that has 18 normally, but for a tourney has 6 extra placements. Where is the button to add holes?

Not to impressed with this app.
I have used all of the DG Scorecard Apps I could find and think this one has the most potential for being the best, but I trust that it is a work in progress and showed that trust by dropping $5 on it.

My wish list includes...

1. More courses on the map than just a few in a fairly small radius. I would like to be able to move around the map and see ALL courses in the database, rather than just a few.

2. More customization. Like "DG Caddy", I need to be able to edit hole information (example, home course has 24 holes but 6 are letter holes, 3 of which come after #5 and the other 3 play after hole #15). Simply listing holes #1-24 makes the App unusable for the course I play most often. (I sent this before seeing Chucks note about creating a custom course. This option does not allow for changing the hole number to a letter or "6X, for example).

As others have said, it would be nice to be able to add, and save, distances for other pin placements and choose them as the hole is played. Some courses have up to 5 pin positions and multiple pads.

3. Tournament Mode. I have yet to see a program that lets you keep a running tally of scores for multiple players over consecutive rounds. Is this being considered as the program evolves?

Right now, the most unique aspect of the program is that it shows Tee order as a round progresses. I really like the speed of score entry and visibility.

Thanks for your time and dedication to this App...Charlie
