Front and Back of green can now be mapped via GolfMapz.com

January 16th, 2009

Just log in to the golfmapz.com site, and you can map front/back of greens by navigating to the course in the directory under the “gps enabled” course list, and then clicking on the Map Front/Back of Green link.

This goes through a similar approval process as marking the center of the green with our old tool.

Also, please do not use the “default course” option anymore, as it is introducing a bug that is not easily seen.  (If you had saved a course in the previous version, please delete your application and re-download it from the app store - some users experience crashing when not deleting the app before updating).

We will send out an update ASAP to fix the issue.  The gps distance finder should still be usable with the new version, no matter whether or not you use the default course option.

vCaddy 2.0 Approved and Live at the App Store

January 14th, 2009

vCaddy v2.0 is now live on the app store for sale.

We will have the tool available for you to add Front/Back of green to your courses within a few days, just like our course mapping tool that we already use on GolfMapz.com

Version 2.0 submitted for approval, Launch of vCaddyGolf.com

January 11th, 2009

Welcome all vCaddy users.  We are excited to announce the new version of our application, vCaddy 2.0, which has been submitted to Apple and is in the approval process.

We expect the review to take a few days, but finally we have fixed some of the kinks, wrapped up the initial parallel release of vCaddyGolf.com, and are ready to show them to the world.

The new version of the app adds scorecard features, easily the most requested feature by our users, as well as Front/Center/Back of green distances.

Scorecard Features:

  • Keep score for up to 4 players
  • Players info gets saved to the application, so that they dont have to log in each time you start a new round with them.  Just touch the “select player” button after hitting “add new player” from the scorecard startup menu.
  • All 4 players can keep track of shots/putts.
  • Main player can additionally keep track of Fairways hit/ Greens in Regulation
  • All 4 players rounds get saved to the website, for later viewing and analysis.

Additional Changes:

  • Front/Back/Center of Green Distance finder capabilities (Front/Back need to be marked)
  • Manual Course Selection easier with added “subnames” when golf clubs have more than one course that can be played.
  • Range Finder accuracy improvements
  • Current Progress saved, so you can leave the application and return right where you left off.

We hope you like the new changes.  Maps will be added as a quick additional update, as some users do not want the feature (as it can take a while for maps to download while on the course).

We will try to add this to a later version with optional maps, but the first maps version will have them integrated.

Also, courses can still be added/mapped/approved via our original website, http://www.golfmapz.com

We will be integrating this all into vcaddygolf.com at some point, but for now will focus this effort on scorecard tracking and analysis.

Enjoy, and hit em strait!
