Real-time playability scores and tee time recommendations

How does scoring work?

What Makes Ideal Golf Weather?

Not every sunny day is a great golf day. Our scoring system evaluates four factors each hour to produce a 0–100 playability score:

  • Wind under 8 mph — Predictable ball flight and less stress on your short game.
  • Temperature between 60–85°F — Warm enough to stay loose, cool enough to walk 18.
  • Rain probability below 20% — Dry fairways and consistent ball roll.
  • Low gust delta — Gusts more than 8 mph above sustained wind make club selection unpredictable.

Hourly scores are averaged across course operating hours (6 AM – 6 PM) to produce an overall rating: Great, Good, Fair, or Poor.
