Birdie book is an hole-by-hole accurate yardage/map for a golf course.

I've heard from some people that golf courses provide birdie book for its guests. However, I've never seen one and received one whenever I play.

Do you get one when u play?

Can somebody show me the scan of a birdie book?

Not all courses have them.
Some courses charge for them as they can be souvenirs.

Thanks for the scan.

It will be nice if all Golf Courses offer these books to all guests at $4.99 (and less)..... or even FREE. But some courses where I played don't even make them... It's like shooting in the dark without these books....

Do a Forum Search for Laser range finders and/or Sky Caddie and forget about yardage books and sprinkler heads!

Love the Birdie books! I would love to have one of every course I play! Awesome!
I bought a pack of very cheap yardage books that have evrything but the yardages. You had to fill that out yourself. too time consuming. do a search on golfwits if you want to check them out. Not nearly as nice as the Birdie Book though.

I don't think Skycaddie & Range finders are permitted on Tournaments.... since I play one tournament a month. It's also a good habit to practice using birdie book.

They are allowed by the USGA, but they can still be banned by individual clubs for competition play. You just have to ask. They give the same distance information as a book, and they work for any course you want to play (although in some cases you have to input the info yourself the first time you play).

      Not really, no. I don't know the history, what you've worked on, what you've tried and moved away from… etc.

      Definitely not a favorite… For some reason my wife and I started watching Cobra Kai. I know the original was pretty cheesy, but the inability of these people to get over shit that happened like 30 years ago is astounding. And these kids would be arrested, but they don’t even seem to get suspended from school. Would Danny not notice that Johnny’s son looks like Johnny? Etc.? Why would a completely different dojo that has the same name be “banned”? Oy. Not sure we’ll make it to season 2.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      Day 139 - 2025-02-16 Weather led to a rescheduled GEARS lesson, so I used the time to work on my swing for 60 minutes or so. All downswing stuff. Some swings at 93 MPH. Most around 75-80.

      My Swing (TN94z)

      By TN94z ·

      A question I have is…this swing (fade, pull cut) does not  feel as good and easily repeatable as the draw swing we were working on previously.  I’m kinda in a weird spot where I do not know which direction will be the best to pursue. I like seeing a penetrating 5 yard draw but also like the thought of the fade not getting away from me as much.    Any thoughts on that?
