About this app

Golf can be frustrating at times. When you're on the course, you don't want to worry about the maths that go along with some of the fun games we play. Captains with 6 players can get a little tricky when you're playing silly with Chippies, Fishies, Barkies, Polies, and maybe some Snakes. Throw in side matches with other players in other groups and side matches with other teams, keeping track of the totals can be a tall task. You need to be focusing on your swing and your over there trying to figure out why the numbers don't work out.

Oh, and then it turns out you're on hole 14 and you forgot a polie and skin on hole 5. Erase? New Card and start the maths over? You used a 4-color pen? Ugh!!

I respect those that take on the burden to keep the scores and balance the numbers through the round. Those of us that do it know that there aren't many volunteers for the job. There are plenty to speak up when the maths are wrong though.

This is why I started to build Huckleback in September 2020. Those of us that like to keep score can still do it, but now we can focus on our golf game too. I've been a programmer since 1996. It started off as a web app for my local club. I learned what I needed to so I could build a little tool that we could use on the course. Well, after that worked, others asked me where to find it in the stores. It wasn't in stores and wasn't an app. I went to work learning again in 2023. It's been a ride and I can't wait to see what's next for Huckleback.

Huckleback is going to grow. You're support for the app is helping to build the product into something that all golfers will want to use. We're starting with scoring:
The Big Games: Stroke Play, Stableford, and a tournament-style big game I call The Fremont.
The Team Games: Captains/Wolf, Baseball/531, Split 6, Sixes/Hollywood, and Silly.
The Quick Matches (Teams of 1 or 2 players): 1-Downs, 2-Downs, Best Ball, Huckle When You're Mad, Nassau, Match Play, and Vegas.
The Team Quick Matches (Teams of 1 to 6): Best Ball to 6-Ball
...AND OF COURSE...
The Sides: Arnies, Barkies, Double Barkies, Bingo-Bango-Bongo, Chippies, Closest To Pin, Fairways, Fishies, Greenies, HoneyBadger, Huckle, Huckleback, Longest Drive, Polies, Skins, Snakes, and Table Max.

Huckleback lets you have a handicap for the Big Game while having a separate handicap for the Team Game within your group. Need to Give Strokes in the Quick Matches or Team Quick Matches? You can do that too. ALL calculated for you when you put in the scores...ALL visible in real-time.

What's next? I have plans to keep building Huckleback. You will see frequent updates with continuous development. I'll be working on building out statistics, new games recommended by the community, more networking tools, fun animations and interactions, and some things I need to keep secret to keep a unique edge. It's going to keep growing and improving where it needs to.

Have an idea? Send it to me. Let's make golf fun together.

Made for all golfers of all ages who enjoy this maddening game. Welcome to Huckleback.

YOU PLAY. WE SCORE.
