GameBook Clubhouse

All your golfing friends in same place

The GameBook Clubhouse will become your new place to hang out with friends, plan your golf rounds and share final results – as well those end of round excuses. And friends without a GameBook can join too!

Comment on their games

The GameBook Clubhouse allows you to track your friends’ games in real-time and even post comments on their game. Have they made a good score? Perhaps it was a total disaster! Either way, you can write a comment next to the scorecard and they’ll pick it up straight after the game.

Share your scores with Facebook friends

Now you can easily share your golf round with Facebook friends. A message is sent to Facebook when you start the round and the final results are posted once you’re done. Available on iPhone, on Android soon.

Create games and tournaments

Build your own interactive GameBook Clubhouse with your golfer friends. Here it’s easy to create games, leagues, tournaments, goofy rounds – or any other kind of event you choose to think of. It’s your call.

Invite friends

No more hassle calling round the group to see who can play and who can’t. Simply post your invitation in the GameBook Clubhouse and your friends can sign up to play at the click of a cursor.


Testimonials

GameBook mission

Co-founders Mikko Manerus and Kalle Vainola

“As PGA professionals, we have participated in literally hundreds of corporate outings and Pro-Ams. Our inspiration came from seeing golfers come to the first tee super excited, but some losing interest after only a few holes. Players did not really feel a part of the overall event. GameBook solves the problem by connecting people with the game.

Our overall aim is to increase value for golf clubs, corporate outings, and individual players by making golf more enjoyable – and GameBook provides that.”

Real-time scores and leaderboard

Multiple game formats

Enjoy ultimate freedom and variety with your game formats. Simply select your primary game and complement it with any number of stimulating side games, at a few clicks of a cursor. All games can be monitored via the live leaderboard on your iPhone.

Stroke Play can be played with or without handicaps. In the example above, Stroke Play is played with handicaps. The cumulative score is updated after each hole. For example, Mikko Ilonen is at -2 after 7 holes. Scores for the last hole are always shown on the screen (hole 7). The current hole is highlighted in green. The number of shots a player gets on a hole is indicated on the green bar.

When playing Stableford, the scores are calculated as points. For example, Mikko Ilonen has 16 points after 7 holes. On the score view, the larger number shows strokes and the smaller number net points. Stableford can be played in two ways: Regular or Modified. The current hole is highlighted in green. The number of shots a player gets on a hole is indicated on the green bar.

In Scramble, only the team score is entered in to the GameBook. In the Stroke Play example above, Team Cink is at -6 after 7 holes. The initials of each player are listed under the team name.

Erado is totally new side game developed by the GameBook Team making the game easier and more fun. Each player has 4 “lives”, which can be used to erase bad holes from the final score. The decision to erase a score must be made immediately… before playing the next hole. The final hole is always counted IN and cannot be erased.

Erado can only be played using Stroke Play (with Handicaps or Scratch). The leaderboard is always kept relative to par (+ or -). Bullets next to the players name show how many Erados are left to use.

Duplicate is another new side game developed by the GameBook Team adding more excitement to the game. Duplicate can only be played using Stableford points. Before each hole, the GameBook randomly draws a multiplier of one, two or three for the hole. This means that the Stableford points will be multiplied making it more important to score well on the higher multiplier holes.

Duplicate is an extremely thrilling game and after playing it, you’ll never play normal Stableford again.

Total freedom – anytime, anyplace

The revolutionary GameBook iPhone app enables you to track event scoring in real time, regardless of your physical location – across the course, across the country and even around the world. Imagine sitting at an airport and tracking your friends’ games on the other side of the planet from your iPhone. It’s easy with GameBook.
