Anyone using the Intelligolf software? I have a Moto Q9h and was thinking of trying it out but the file is a msi and my phone won't open it. Also, what are your thoughts on it?

I use it on a Palm Treo and really like it. However they upgrade it each year or two with limited increased functionality.

How did you install the .msi file? My Moto Q won't run the .msi file. :(

The .msi file is a Windows application that will install the software on your desktop and then install files to the phone when it's synced.

The desktop Software is great for tracking and breaking down your rounds and the mobile software is great for keeping score. I have only used the scorecard feature as I do not have a GPS enabled PDA.

I am currently considering this software as well. The only thing ive noticed about it is, the Drive Calculator. From what ive read it doesnt use the GPS to do it, but rather makes you pace out from your drive to where the ball landed.. Any idiot can pace out to give the distance, it would be far more of a feature (and one im looking for) if it just used the GPS, and you just hit a button when you shot, then hit a button when your at your ball.

Has anyone who has used the GPS version been able to tell if it that changes? or dose it still make you pace it out on the GPS enabled one?

I am currently using the trial of the latest version on my BB 8310. It works really well. One of my smaller local courses was not in their database. I used the desktop program and google earth and marked the green and hazards. It's is pretty much dead on. When you are tracking shots you click "Start" in GPS mode (at your hitting location) then when you get to your shot you click "End." It prompts you for what club you used and some other info. It shows your yardage even if you don't click end and keeps tracking until you click on end or done. If I am not mistaken, this is how it works with all other GPS devices with shot tracking. I really want to buy it, as I like the scorecard and sidegame feature. $70 w/ GPS is pretty steep!

I used it on my Blackberry 8800 last year. Of my local courses it only had one mapped. Furthermore, the interface was clunky and convoluted as if designed by drunken monkeys.

This year I bough a dedicated Golf GPS and could not be happier. For score keeping I find it easier/faster to use paper anyway.

I've been using it for over a year and like it. Haven't really used it on the course with the GPS for tracking shots though I do use it for skins and betting. I've got all of the golfing gang's scores recorded so its pretty easy to agree on handicaps when we play/bet net.

I have used it for several years. I obviously really like it. I am a bit of a gadget freak.

On the course it is quick and easy to enter your game including score, putts, each swing/distance/on-off direction. Obviously a good score card with up to 5 players and side games if you like.

It does have a distance feature ( pacing off distance to markers ) or with appropriate courses, gps support. You can enter gps coordinates using google earth or flash earth. Tedious, but rewarding.

I have abandoned the GPS support though. The blue tooth gps connection ran down the battery on my T5 in 15-17 holes. If I thought about it I could make it work. I instead moved to a separate GPS, golf guru. At the end of each hole, I transfer the distance information to the intelligolf.

There is space for information on the course, each hole and for tracking other items as text per hole in the round.


I also like the PC based software: quick stats and detailed stats, print outs etc. The software captures many golf metrics while you are playing: FH, GIR, putts, putt missed, penatly, sand/bunker shots, distances for each club, etc. The end of round summary is surprisingly complete.

Good service -- they recovered a damaged database for me.

I think it is worth the money. As someone stated, right now the upgrades are not giving a lot of additional value. But then again, I have all but the latest (end of July 2008) updates in hand.

Cool review mkrolewski. Would you be able to tell me if it supports maps of each hole? (layouts of bunkers, water hazards etc..) either though uploaded pics or gps mapping?

it doesn't - there are no course graphics in Intelligolf.

Humm.. well that kinda stinks, but i can deal without it, as ill likely have a score card with me anyway and they usualy have maps.. And some of the courses i play on have maps at the tee off areas. I Did see that you can plot key areas for range (like the range to a sandtrap or water hazard.

No, not really. Its a tool for recording, lots of game support, and post round statistics. One of the dedicated GPS units would be better suited for what you are looking for (before the shot help).

well, im not buying one of those. Im going to have the Tilt anyway and was just looking for a program that could work on it.. I would still like the stats and recording that inteligolf has, id just thought that it helped both before and after the shot, and not just one or the other.

Kinda stupid to have 2 devices because one program doesnt do both.

I have been using the non-GPS versions of Intelligolf for years. I use it for bets and statistical tracking. I use the Palm vesion on a Sony Clie. I have a separate GPS if I need a yardage.

When you find one that fits both bills, make sure to post what it is here in this thread.

    • However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.
    • I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

    • Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through. 
    • Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
