The Sand Trap is now, assuming you have iOS 16.4 or later, ready for notifications on your iPhone or iPad!

favicon.jpg iPhone notifications, web app and more - Invision Community - Invision Community

The longest awaited iPhone feature is almost here, native iOS notifications, and we couldn't wait to ensure it is enabled for your Invision Community. Invision Community 4.7.9 is iPhone push notification ready...

Add The Sand Trap to your home screen, too, as a stand-alone "app" and you can get notifications on your phone. If you view on a desktop/laptop browser, you can also click the notification bell at the top and you may be prompted to get notifications your desktop, too, if you haven't already.

I'll be the first to admit that this isn't the best solution, as the "standalone" app takes you to /forums/ (I can configure that, but only to pages that exist to the general public - I can't even link to /discover/unread/). But, it's something, and just having the site on your phone should notify you.

You "saved" the site to your home screen on your iPhone?

It's been working really well here.

I’ve been using this for 4 days now. It’s way easier than opening Safari because The Sand Trap is an icon on my home page now. I encourage others to try it.

The notifications are nice, too.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Range day working with the 6 & 7 irons.  As we have grass and it’s been beat to death, I hit off short tee pegs.  Solid session with the irons - even if there were a few wonky hosel rockets with the 7 when I did not stay in the process.  Finished the session with some work with the driver, focused on setup and tempo.

      Day 27 - 40 minutes of chipping work; range was closed this morning. Worked on lofted chips with 58, bump-and-run with 7 and 9 irons.

      Congratulations.   It sounds like a ton of work but I'm sure it is rewarding.

      Dave's Journey With the Rules of Golf

      By DaveP043 ·

      Well now the ordeal is over, and I'm back home.  If anyone is interested in doing one of these workshops, I recommend it, but its a lot of information in a short time frame.  Its been compared to taking a drink of water from a fire hose.  A lot of the "enjoyment" comes from the personalities of the instructors.  In my previous workshops, I've had one instructor who was good, and the other was exceptional.  This time, both instructors were exceptional, as was the "coordinator", who also served as instructor (his first time) for a couple of segments.  You have almost certainly heard each of the instructors on telecasts as the "rules voice", and have quite possibly seen coordinator-Jay on the USGA rules of Golf videos on Youtube and the USGA website.   A nice surprise, I got my exam results in an email earlier today.  I guess it helps that our class was held maybe 300 yards from the USGA satellite office in Pinehurst.  I'm really pleased, I improved on my past performances, and can claim the "Expert" title again.
