Peer Reviewed & Fact Checked

1. Hole Guides

A QR at each tee marker links to the hole map with distances to bunkers and greens, par, stroke index, and local hazard notes. Golfers plan their shot without asking the pro shop.

2. Local Rules

Course-specific local rules (ground under repair, preferred lies) are posted at the first tee and linked from a QR. The rule is always current without reprinting the card.

3. Score Tracking

A QR links to the club's score-tracking or handicap app entry page. Golfers submit scores directly from the 18th green.

4. Pro Shop Offers

A QR at the halfway house or cart return links to pro shop daily deals, equipment rental, and lesson bookings. Drives impulse purchases without a detour.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size QR works on a tee marker post?

Roughly 6 to 8 cm on a post read from standing distance (50 to 80 cm). Use a durable outdoor label or engraved plate.

Can a phone navigate a golfer around the course?

Yes if the linked page includes an interactive map. GPS-enabled browser maps can be embedded for turn-by-turn course navigation.
