The Scoring Machine 4+

Great Service

This app is perfect for our golf group of 32 guys. On top of tracking individual scores, it tracks all of the team bets, skins, side games and much more. I couldn’t figure one thing out so I reached out the the developers. I received a personalized detailed email within minutes. This morning (Sunday) I had a follow up question and was expecting them to reply some time later this week. Nope, they again replied with a long detailed email which answered all of my questions today (Sunday). I am going to recommend everyone in our golf group download the app. You can’t beat it for the price with great service to boot!

Came up way short

Had so much hope for the app, but after spending hours setting up multiple scenarios for play, we found it to be quite disappointing. The UI is cumbersome. There are serious limitations as to the amount of scoring, particularly money game scoring, that you can do. If you are tracking a simple Nassau bet within a foursome then this will work fine. We have many instances where we play a fivesome, having 2 or 3 fivesomes and multiple team bets within the group, as well as bets between other individuals outside our group. The lack of customization within games renders it useless for our situation. There are better apps out there, albeit a little more expensive, that do considerably more. If you need simple score and wager tracking then this is fine. If you play in games that have multiple wagers between many players with multiple variables, then look elsewhere.

Developer Response ,

Hustler: Sorry you're unhappy... The Scoring Machine is in wide use for lots of "boys day out" play, including fivesomes with round-robin four-ball teams on your scorecard and match play across the field of lots of scorecards. If you didn't find what you needed in the built-in help, we'd be happy to assist. First, however, you'd have to contact us!

Impressive Product

This App is the best that I’ve used and I’ve been through a few over the last year. I finally got it customized to our multiple gross and net bets amongst 4 players with the results in either the Scorecard or the Summary. I have a 20 person upcoming Match and this will definitely replace our spreadsheet. Sharing the results is also very easy via mobile devices. This is a great product and enhanced by very responsive technical support. They have some scoring options planned that will make it even better. You can’t beat it for the price!
