GolfMate — The Ultimate Golf Companion

Context & Challenge:
Many golfers struggle with club selection and shot planning, especially when distances to holes are not clearly displayed and recommendations/analytics are either superficial or unattainable. The company wants to create a companion app that provides a realistic visualization of the course, accuracy analytics, club recommendations, and improved game strategy.
Research & Process:
I interviewed several golf enthusiasts and gathered insights on what exactly is getting in the way: no visual navigation, difficulty estimating distance, lack of data on past shots.
I analyzed competing apps, figured out what features they offer, and what could be done better.
Developed wireframes → several prototypes in Figma, tested them among golfers/colleagues, and received feedback on the interface and navigation.
Solution/Key Features:
Hole maps with visualization of distances and characteristics of each hole.
Club recommendations based on past performance (accuracy, power).
Player statistics: improvement over time, error analysis.
Simple, minimalist design, easy navigation, emphasis on readability even in bright sunlight/poor visibility on the course.
Context & Challenge: Many golfers struggle with club selection and shot planning, especially when distances to holes are not clearly displayed and recommendations/analytics are either superficial or unattainable. The company wants to create a companion app that provides a realistic visualization of the course, accuracy analytics, club recommendations, and improved game strategy.
Expected/Achieved Results:
Expected reduction in club selection decision time by 30-40%.
Increased user satisfaction, sense of control, and confidence on the course.
Improved game strategy through analytics—players will be able to see their weaknesses and work on them.
Future plans/improvements:
Addition of a 3D map of the course for maximum visualization.
Integration with GPS/geodata for automatic distance determination.
Ability to save favorite courses, save game histories, and compare different courses.
