You triple bogey the first hole.
Your drive on 2 goes OB.
You're already 6 over through 3.

Doesn't matter.

You step up on 4, stick it to 8 feet, and drain the putt.

Birdie. Hole 4 is yours.

And just like that — you're back in the game.

A season-long competition to birdie every hole on your home course. You vs. your crew. 18 holes. One winner.

The game our crew has played for 6 seasons straight.

Not a scoring app.
A game built on top of golf.

Forget your total score. Forget your handicap. The Birdie Game only cares about one thing: which holes can you birdie before your buddy does?

You and your crew pick a course — your home course, the one you play every week. Set up a game. Then spend the whole season chasing birdies across all 18 holes.

Birdie hole 7 in March? It's yours for the year. Your buddy picks up hole 12 in June? Now you're down one. The race is on.

It's not about how many birdies you make. It's about how many different holes you can claim.

The game that makes
bad rounds fun.

You're never out of it.

Shoot 95 and still pick up a birdie on 14? That's a great day. The Birdie Game doesn't care about the other 17 holes. Just the one that counted.

The leader can't run away.

The more you birdie, the fewer you have left. The player out front has fewer chances to extend the lead. The game stays close. By design.

Low stakes, high fun.

Think $100 on the year and bragging rights. Not a high-pressure gambling game. Just enough to make a 12-footer feel electric.

It never gets old.

The game resets every year. New season, clean slate, same crew. The holes are the same but the chase never plays out the same way twice.

See where you stand.
All season long.

The leaderboard updates every time someone records a birdie. Watch the gaps close. Watch the lead change. That's the whole point.

We invented this game six years ago. We're still playing it.

In 2021, my brother-in-law and I were looking for a way to keep our regular rounds interesting. We played the same course every week. We loved it, but we wanted something more — a reason to care about every single round, not just the good ones.

So we made up a game. Track which holes you birdie. Unique holes only. Play it all year. Whoever gets the most wins.

That was it. No complicated rules. No spreadsheets. Just a simple bet and a shared obsession with chasing birdies on our home course.

Six years later, we're still playing. Still talking trash on the first tee. Still texting each other when one of us finally gets that hole we've been stuck on since April.

That should tell you something.

Same crew. Same course. But now every round is part of something bigger.

Before The Birdie Game, a random Tuesday round was just a round. You'd play, post a number, maybe remember a shot or two, and move on.

Now? Every round is a chapter. You're scanning the scorecard before you tee off, looking for which holes you still need. You're standing over a birdie putt on 16 knowing it could tie the game.

Your regular rounds aren't filler anymore. They're the season.

Every round matters.
Every birdie counts.

Three rules.
That's all you need.

1

Everyone plays together.

Every player in the game has to be on the course when a birdie is scored. No racking up birdies while your buddy's at home. Equal opportunity, every round.

2

Play it real.

Ball down. Putt everything out. No gimmees. The birdie has to count.

3

Unique holes win.

The player who birdies the most holes out of 18 wins. An eagle counts too. Repeating a birdie on a hole you've already claimed is nice — but it doesn't move the needle.

That's the whole game. Pick a course, pick your crew, set a timeframe, and start hunting.

Solo Mode

Going solo? Chase every hole yourself.

Lone Wolf mode is a solo quest to birdie every hole on your home course. No opponents — just you and 18 holes. Birdies from group games count toward your solo progress too.

How long does it take to birdie all 18?

The app just keeps track.

The Birdie Game is the game. The app is your scorecard. Record birdies when they happen. See which holes you've claimed. Track your progress against your crew across the whole season.

No noise. No social feeds. No swing tips.
Just your games, your crew, and your birdies.
