GHIN brings score posting, golf statistics, course maps, and group scoring together for golfers who want to record rounds and review aspects of their play. Scores can be entered as a total or hole by hole, and GPS-related tools provide additional ways to view course information and track shots.

Recording a round and reviewing statistics

When recording a round, golfers can choose between entering a total score and providing a hole-by-hole breakdown. The app also tracks statistics including putts, approach shot accuracy, and driving accuracy. These measures let golfers review selected parts of their performance and identify areas they may want to work on.

Using course maps and GPS tools

For navigating a course, GHIN provides course maps with GPS functionality. The described GPS tools also include a putt break map, an approach shot heat map, and shot tracking. Together, these functions offer course-related views and shot information during play; the source does not specify how the maps are displayed or how tracking is configured.

Keeping score in group games

When playing with others, golfers can use games and group scorekeeping to keep a record of the group's scores. The app describes these options as supporting friendly competition during a round. This is separate from posting an individual total or hole-by-hole score, which can be used to record a golfer's own round.

Looking up other golfers

Golfer lookup lets users find other golfers and connect with them. The source identifies finding playing partners as one purpose of this feature, alongside keeping score during group games. It does not specify particular search filters or communication tools.
