Know the distance. Plan the hole. Keep score.
Azimuth is a free golf app for your phone. Measure any shot on the map, plan how you'll play each hole, and keep a live scorecard for your group — with your own distances and dispersion guiding the way.
Distances in seconds
Point at any target on the map and read the distance from where you stand — or drop two points to measure a gap, a carry, or a run-out. No course to download, nothing to set up: the map is the rangefinder.
- GPS mode measures from your live position
- Two-point tape for carries, gaps and layup zones
- Your numbers, here too — club labels and dispersion cones on any measured shot
- Metres or yards, whichever you play
Decide before you swing
Sketch the hole the way you intend to play it: a dot for every shot, drive to approach, each labelled with the club you'd hit. Add the lines that matter — out of bounds, hazards, the gap you need to clear — and keep par sheets for every tee.
- Shot-by-shot routes with club labels, auto-filled from your bag
- OB and hazard lines, width markers across the fairway
- Par sheets — pars and stroke indexes per course and tee
- Private or shared — publish a plan for the course, or keep it to yourself
Guidance from your own dispersion
Tell Azimuth your bag — carry distance and typical miss for each club — and it draws your dispersion cone on every planned shot: where the good strikes land, and where the misses actually go. Club labels on the map come from your real carries, not a stock chart.
Left miss longer than the right? Skewed cones handle that too.
Keep score on top of your plan
Start a round and the plan you drew is right there under the scores — the hole's routes, lines and notes on the map while you tap in strokes for the group. Everyone scores from their own phone, and the card stays in sync hole by hole.
- Your plan under the scores — routes and notes on the map as you play
- Shared scorecards, synced live across players
- Gross, net and adjusted net, with playing handicaps
- Pick up and move on — the bookkeeping stays straight
- End-to-end encrypted sync — the server can't read your card
