Check the weather before you golf!

There’s no worse feeling than being half way through your round of golf, spotting that the heavens are about to open, with the sharp realisation you’ve left your waterproofs in the boot of the car.

Rain often makes golf less enjoyable but it’s always a bit more tolerable when you are prepared for it.

To make sure you are always ready for whatever the local weather conditions are for your golf day, we have added in a three day weather forecast for every single golf club in our golf course directory.

So whether it is shorts and shades or golf umbrella at the ready, check Sandwedged in advance of your round and you’ll have no excuse not to be perfectly prepared.

Add notes to your round of golf

When tracking your golf scores, of course it’s vital to record all that data, but sometimes golf data just doesn’t give you the whole picture.  There are certain things that a scorecard just can’t record.  Therefore, when you look back you might not be getting the full picture on why you played so well (or dare I say badly).  So to address this problem, we’ve added the ability to add notes to each round of golf you save in the golf scoretracker.  So now you can be reminded that you left your putter in the garage, had to borrow your friend’s, and the rest was history.

Any other features that you would like to see on the site, be sure to drop us a line.

At last a proper home for the Sandwedged golf blog
