About Forefathers
A few dad friends and I wanted a simple way to track our golf rounds and practice swings. Every golf app out there is bloated with social features, GPS course maps, subscription plans, and ads everywhere.
We just wanted to log our scores and see if we're getting better. So I built Forefathers - named because we're all dads who yell "FORE!" more often than we'd like to admit.
Features
- Score tracking - Log your rounds with a clean, simple interface
- Practice mode - Track your driving range sessions and swing practice
- Offline-first - No network required, no waiting for servers
- No ads - Just golf tracking, nothing else
- No account required - Your data stays on your device
The Philosophy
Golf apps have become absurdly complicated. You don't need AI swing analysis, social leaderboards, or premium subscriptions just to remember that you shot a 94 last Saturday.
Forefathers does one thing: helps you track your golf. That's it. Open it, log your round, close it. Check back later to see your progress.
