18Birdies Scoring Modes
At 18Birdies, we’ve got two ways to keep score:
- Classic: For those who like to keep it simple.
- Smart Tracking: For golfers who want to dive deep into their game.
Let’s break down what each option offers so you can choose the best fit for your next round.
Classic
Classic Scoring is the traditional way to keep score. It tracks all of the basics: total strokes for each hole, fairways hit, greens in regulation, and number of chips and putts. This straightforward method is great for golfers who want to keep things simple and focus on their overall score without additional data.

Smart Tracking
Smart Tracking is the ultimate way to capture your on-course performance, automatically. Using your Apple Watch or phone, it detects and records every shot as you play, so you can focus entirely on your game.
At the end of each hole, simply confirm your score, total putts, and the distance of your first putt. That’s it! Smart Tracking then automatically populates all your shots onto the GPS map for a complete, visual breakdown of your round.
By the time you finish your round, you’ll have:
- A complete shot-by-shot breakdown of every hole
- True club distances, based on actual on-course performance
- Advanced stats and powerful Strokes Gained analysis to pinpoint strengths and weaknesses
- Personalized tips designed to help you improve where it matters most
This advanced scoring mode is available exclusively to 18Birdies Premium members. It’s perfect for any golfer looking for deep, effortless insights to seriously elevate their game and lower their scores.
