Any recommendations?

I've been looking for an app to do this for some time. In addition to providing a scorecard facility, it would be good if apps could calculate, and maintain handicaps, with the possibility of emailing or printing handicap certificates.

Another problem is that many of the apps out there provide some form of GPS capability, but the only courses available are in the USA. I golf in Europe and would appreciate similar capabilities over here.

Any recomendations?

I use the golf card app, coupled with a membership on ushandicap.com.

The app is your basic GPS+Scorecard app, using google maps to image the course.  You can download their course manager and create any course you want.  You just find it on a map, and mark the the tee boxes, greens, etc.  It probably takes 20 minutes.

You can sign into your ushandicap account and upload your scores, giving you an official USGA handicap and letting you print a certificate.

Golflogix app has literally hundreds of courses (too many for me to count) listed for several European countries, and it's free.  They are worldwide........  As for an "official" USGA handicap, you'll need to register with the USGA for that.  Here in Canada, it's $40 a year (public players club) for an official RCGA index.

Can't edit my last post, as I noticed I carried over dsc123's thoughts on a USGA handicap, which you wouldn't need anyway.  Is there an equivalent system to the public players club across the big pond?  If so, that's all you would need to carry an official index.
