How to edit your rounds using the NEW Shot Scope Mobile App Editor – (iOS/Android Apps – 2023)
in this video tutorial I’m going to take you through the process of editing your rounds using Shot Scope’s brand new mobile editing tool Last month back in December 2022 Shot Scope unveiled two brand new editors One for the mobile app and one for the online dashboard which you can access with your laptop or desktop computer If you’re interested in learning how to use that editor then you can check out a separate tutorial that I’ve created using either the link in the card above or in the description below this video I’ll also share a link to that video at the end of this video So in this video tutorial we’re going to take a look from the very beginning at how to edit your round We’ll start off with taking a look at how to take your round from your Shot Scope H4 or V3 watch into your Shot Scope account Then what we’ll do is we’ll take a look at the full editing process So we’ll take a look at moving shots adding shots deleting shots marking positional shots as well as some of the key new features that have been added to the app As well as that we’ll also take a look at how to add those penalty strokes that you may not have added when you’ve been out on the golf course Finally we’ll finish up with taking a look at how to share your rounds with your friends or to social media
Checking the App Version and Syncing Rounds
Now in order to be able to make use of this brand new editor you’ll need to have the latest version of the Shot Scope app on your mobile device So let’s begin the tutorial with checking how to make sure that you are using the latest version of the app The first thing that I need to make clear is that to get the latest version of the Shot Scope app you’ll need to go to either the Google Play Store or in my case the App Store So I’ve searched for the Shot Scope app here and I’m just checking that I am on the latest version So you’ll see at the top here I have an open option I don’t have the update option which means I’m currently working on the latest version If you haven’t updated your app in a while then the chances are you’ll still be on an older version and you’ll need to update it to be able to get the latest editing tool Once you have updated and opened the app Shot Scope recommend that you log out of the app and then log back in just to make sure that you are running with the latest version In this particular tutorial I’m going to be working on an Apple device So I’ve got an iPhone here and the iOS version of the app But if you’re an Android device user then you’ll be able to work through this tutorial too because basically they are exactly the same So first of all let’s take a look at how to bring our round from our device onto our Shot Scope account and then hopefully be able to edit it So I’m going to tap on open which will open up the Shot Scope app And you’ll see here at top we are on the rounds tab So we’re looking at all of our previous rounds on the Shot Scope account Now you’ll see here I’m looking at 2023 There’s a little filter here If I tap on that I can see all of the different years where I have rounds saved as a Shot Scope user So I can go back to 2022 I can then tap on submit and I can see all of my historical rounds here for that particular year Now a quick little bit of information here at this point If you see any blue numbers such as the + 10 + 6 or + 12 here those are rounds which are basically overpar If we have the red numbers such as this minus1 here that means that it’s an underpar round And if the number is gray well it will have a E next to it or a zero and that will be a level par round Couple of other things to note Some of these rounds you’ll notice there’s a little almost like a no entry sign on top of these statistics here on a couple of these rounds That means that basically these rounds are rounds which I have chosen not to include in my statistics and that’s because these top three rounds are actually just rounds that I created to be able to create the tutorial for the online editor So you can mark rounds as normal rounds or you can choose to include or emit them from your performance statistics and we’ll cover that later on in this tutorial So let’s just jump back to 2023 here And what I want to do is I want to highlight these two rounds that you see here because these are rounds which have not yet been edited So they don’t have numbers next to them They’ve got the pencil icon So that’s how we can tell that these haven’t yet been edited I want to bring a round from this H4 handheld into my Shot Scope account So how do I do that well the first thing that we need to do is we need to make sure that the device is turned on So this one is obviously on and I’ve used it before So it is paired with my device and we have Bluetooth turned on the device So hopefully when I tap on this connect band or sorry connect device button it should locate my H4 handheld and allow me to bring any rounds that are stored on this device across into my Shot Scope account You’ll see just now it’s connecting It’s now setting up And at this point it’s going to give me the option to sync my rounds So I’m going to tap on sync rounds And then it should see on the Shot Scope device it’s now bringing the round across and the round should appear in here It’s just updating the data Now I’ve got three different rounds here I’m not going to go in and edit them all I’m not going to edit every single stroke from these particular rounds These have basically just been captured quickly to allow me to produce this tutorial So I won’t be including these in my stats There won’t be 18 holes to edit We’ll just take a look at editing the key holes and to allow us to basically work through this particular tutorial So the first thing is I want to edit one of these rounds So let’s just go to the bottom one here and we’ll tap on that And then this should bring up the edit view for the round Now it gives you a quick overview So you basically can see how many holes you’ve played how many strokes you took Once you have signed the round off you’ll be able to scroll down and see statistics for that particular round We’ve not done that yet so that’s blank But you can always come back in and check your rounds And you can tap on holes at the top here to get a quick overview of each of your holes Now along the bottom you would see all of the different holes you’ve played I only played the third hole in this example so I don’t have any other holes here but this is just a quick preview for you to take a look at If I want to actually edit the round I’m going to tap on this little pencil icon at the top right And this takes me to the next screen which will allow us to confirm the details for our round
Confirming Round Details
Now if you’re experienced in using the previous version of the Shot Scope app this view here is a little bit different And Shot Scope have added a couple of new features here So the first thing that they’ve done is they’ve basically condensed the menu So there are the same options In fact there’s a couple more options but they’ve made them a lot smaller so we can fit more of them on screen which means that we have to do less scrolling You’ll see here at the top we’ve got details about the round and we’ve got another tab here called scorecard So this scorecard gives you a similar amount of information as you saw on the previous screen but it now includes things like your um stroke index and your putts And stroke index is actually a new feature with the shot scope editor If I jump back to details you’ll see that we have the option to enter our course handicap in here So you can select plus numbers right the way through to um handicap here So let’s say for example my course handicap is nine I can enter that in here and then I can click okay You can choose your tea set So at this point you want to choose which TE’s you played off Shot scope won’t necessarily know the answer to this It will know where the T’s are but it won’t necessarily know which TE’s you are using So you can select from here You’ll see there’s quite a lot in this list If I go for yellow I can then tap okay Let me just make sure I select it So we’ll go for yellow here and okay If there are any issues with the pars on the course let’s say for example on your course you play the white TE’s normally in general play but there’s one particular hole where you’re not allowed to play from the whites and the par instead of being a five is actually a four because you’re playing from the yellows in that occasion you can tap on this little plus icon and you can basically create your own tea set So you can go through all the holes and say well actually the fourth hole here is not a par four it’s actually a par five And then what you can do is you can add this as a T- set which means that every time you’re editing your round if you’re playing from that group of T’s you will be able to select them If you want to go back though you just tap on the back button here and it takes you back to this view The stroke index option here is brand new for this um update So if we go into stroke index you can create your own stroke indexer for male or for female T’s So if I go to create men stroke indexes and then click um okay you’ll get all of the holes here and you can basically work through from your scorecard to make sure that the stroke indexes are correct because shot scope won’t know these for each of the courses So for example the first hole is stroke index one to all the way through to 18 which obviously isn’t correct I would tap on the hole and then I would choose the stroke index from here Tap okay Go to the next hole Choose the stroke index Tap okay And basically work through So once I’ve tapped on the review button I can see all of the indexes here And then when I tap add stroke indexes it will add them for this particular course But in this case I’m going to leave that blank because at this moment in time I’ve got to be honest I don’t know what Shot Scope does with this information I suspect it’s probably tied into the course hub and perhaps the leaderboards Um and there will be some statistics around stroke indexes but um at this moment in time I’m going to leave that one blank for this tutorial but you can look into that in your own time if you wish Other two options here share round on course hub and include round in performance statistics If you share on the course hub it means that other users who are signed up to your course and part of the course hub can see your round how you performed on the course and it goes into the basic sort of um the course hub area for the course that you play You can uncheck that one though and you can do the same with your statistics So if you don’t want this round to count towards your performance stats which in my case I wouldn’t because I’ve only played one hole and it’s just a practice round to generate data for this tutorial I would uncheck that one as well Now below that you’ll see there’s a couple of key new buttons here So edit we’re familiar with that’s always been there But quick sign off is a new option that Shot Scope have added If I tap on quick sign off it basically allows you to really quickly review your round and then sign off So we’ve gone through we’ve reviewed we’ve checked we’re happy with it and then we can basically click quick sign off So what this does is it means that people who perhaps don’t want to go through and fully edit all of the shots in their round they just want to check the numbers add up can quickly sign rounds off Just be aware if you do this these rounds won’t be included in things like the leaderboards the course hub and you won’t be able to earn medals from rounds which you’ve quickly signed off because you’ve not gone through and edited all of the strokes If you’ve chosen to do that you can always tap back on the round though and go back up to the pencil And then you can go through and tap on the edit button down here to go in and actually edit the round properly to make sure that it counts towards the medals the leaderboards and the course hubs Let me just exit this just for now though and we’ll go back to this view here because we’re now going to take a look at how to properly edit our round Rather than using this round here which doesn’t really have much data in it I’m going to go to this round at the top And you’ll see I’ve played a few more holes on this one So we’ve got at least nine holes here What I’m going to do is I’m going to tap on the pencil at the top right like we did before And I don’t need to worry about this Although I’ve already gone through this for you you get the chance to go through this at the very end of the editing process anyway to make sure that you’re happy with everything So for the purposes of this demonstration I’m just going to click on edit and sign off and then we can get into the actual editing tool
The Shot Editing Tool and Map Navigation
Now again there are some changes here with the look and feel of the editor Shot Scope has changed the placement of some of the options in the screen here And it basically just allows for more room to edit So the map has a much bigger view than it did before So some of these numbers at the top for example were actually in a box just underneath So we lost a little bit of screen space for our editor but now we’ve got more room Along the bottom you’ll see the holes So if you are in the first hole it will automatically show the hole You can jump to the second to the third to the fourth and so forth using these options here So obviously if you’ve got 18 you’ll have 18 holes It just has the number of holes that you have played and you can move back and forth through these Let’s go back to number one though and we can see an overview of the hole and the strokes that we have played So in this case I can see that I’ve played a sand wedge from 60 yards to the green and then I have two putted But at this moment in time the view is quite zoomed out So I want to zoom in So how do I zoom in well what we do is we take two fingers and we pull apart So two fingers pull apart let you zoom in And then if you want to move around the map you can just simply click and drag or tap and drag So one finger to move around two fingers to zoom in If you want to zoom out you basically just push your two fingers together So two fingers apart to zoom in two fingers together to zoom out So let’s zoom into this first shot here So it knows I’m on the T here Okay so it’s positioned me on the T It’s actually picked up really well in terms of the um GPS positioning but I want to basically move that around a little bit So how do we move that stroke well what we do is we simply tap on it And by tapping on it it will light it up with a blue marker around it And this will allow you to move it around Before we move it though let’s have a look at what information it’s telling us about this particular stroke So it’s telling me that I shot from 71 yards here to the pin My actual stroke was 68 yards That’s how far I hit it And I left myself 18 ft from the pin Then you’ll see here it says lie type is the T So it knows that this is my first shot It knows that I have played from the T If I want to move it around I now have two options So historically with the old editing um app you had to tap on the shot and then when the crosshair appeared you could move it around So you’ll see I’m just basically dragging it and I can drop it where I want the shot to take place from So let’s just move it forward a little bit And you’ll see as I’m moving this the distance is increasing or decreasing So it will increase obviously if I go further back and closer to the hole it will decrease So I’m going to drop it just where I roughly where I had it before just in there Now what you have is another option to move around So these arrows displayed below they will appear when you have selected a stroke So if you haven’t selected a shot you won’t see these You’ll see the holes but once you select a stroke like we have here as highlighted in blue we can actually move around using the arrows that you see at the bottom of the screen So obviously if you want to go forward you tap forward If you want to go back you tap back You can go left and right as well using these options here Now it’s moving it in one yard increments If I was to zoom out though so two fingers together to zoom out I can actually use these options on the right hand side to increase the yardage So I can say actually every time I tap forward or back or left or right please move me five yards So you’ll see now we’re moving five yards forward back left and right Or we can tap on the plus button and go to 10 yards So this works better Obviously if you’re zoomed out quite far you can just quickly move around So for anyone who’s been struggling a little bit with moving shots using this new feature you can if you want to still zoom in and still tap and drag as you did before which you might find a little bit easier Your options here though are between five and 10 yards If we now want to go up and see the green we could drag this way But what I prefer to do is simply tap away from the stroke which takes us back to the view here And then what you can do is you can zoom out or you can leave it zoomed in And now tap on this little flag So let’s tap on the flag And that will zoom us in to the green Now just to show you if I go back and look at the T-shot it doesn’t show me the information for the T-shot And that’s because we’re looking at the green view Now whilst we’re here you’ll see that we are now looking at the whole slightly different to before What you can do is you can tap with two fingers and turn in a clockwise or anticlockwise motion and this will rotate So you’ll see one finger up one finger down to rotate Two fingers away from each other We’ll zoom in So because we’re looking at the green view that’s why we can’t see information about this stroke So let’s go back up to the green And then again we’re going to zoom in And we can see that I’ve landed basically in the middle of the green here And then I have putted from 18 foot to here And then I’ve put from 5T to the pin So if I’m happy with the first putt I’ll leave that in position If I wanted to move the second putt let’s say I was actually a bit closer then I can simply tap on the putt like we did before and we can press and hold and move its position around So let’s say maybe I was actually further away like over there 8 foot We can move it You’ll notice we’ve also got these arrows as well like we did for our normal stroke or our approach from the tea So we can now move one two or five feet around the green So it’s not 1 five or 10 yards We’re moving in feet because we’re basically on the green So let me zoom in a little bit And now what I’ll do is I’ll I’ll move it to let’s say 5 foot And I can move back left or right or closer to the hole Now something that is also new with the uh latest update to this um editing app is if I tap away from that stroke so back into empty space you’ll see that when I tap on the stroke here we get the option to either choose tap in or nudge So if I want to get that view that we had a second ago up all we have to do is tap on nudge and then you’ll see the arrows If we want to see the tap in option I’m just going to go back to here reselect it Now tap in basically allows you if your stroke was within one foot to either quickly say you were long or short of the hole So rather than tapping on here and dragging it around and trying to position it perfectly at the pen if it’s less than a foot then all you have to do is tap on the stroke and then tap on tap in and you just choose if you were short or long So if you were short of the hole you tap short And obviously if you were long let’s tap back on that Tap in long of the hole So this means when it comes to our statistics for our short scope rounds we can be a lot more accurate in terms of whether we were short or long of the hole when we are marking our final putts Whereas before I’ve always just dropped them roughly you know within a foot of the pen but I didn’t know if it was going to list it as being long of the whole or short which of course messes up your statistics So that’s a really good um improvement from my point of view for this app So let’s just tap back into the empty space here If we want to move the pin same process as before You tap to select the pin and you can move the pin around one two or five foot And you can use the arrows to move it around or as you could before you can press and hold on it and position the pin wherever you like So so far we’ve taken a look at basically how to move shots around for our T-shots for our shots on the green and how to make use of the new tapin feature
Adjusting Shot Lie and Club Used
Let’s now take a look at how we can actually adjust our shots and in particular the lie position So let’s go to the next hole So I’m going to tap anywhere to get away from the selection And I’m going to simply tap on number two which will take me to the second shot Now because I am on the green here or I was in the previous view I need to tap on the flag and that will take us back to this view here So let’s zoom in Let’s see what happened on this hole So I hit a pitching wedge and I was onto the green with two putts So I’m not going to bother working on this hole Let’s go to the next hole because in this case I’ve got a T-shot here and then I’ve got a little wedge approach here So I’ve missed the green on this par three and this shot here was from the fairway Now how do I know it was from the fairway well apart from the fact that I played the stroke you can kind of see here where we’ve got the rough and then we’ve got the fairway But to confirm that Shot Scope has recognized this as being on the fairway I’m going to tap on it And you will see it’s listed as lie type as fairway Now if the people at the Shot Scope team who are mapping the courses had actually marked this zone as being the rough this one would have been listed as being in the rough On the old version of the editing tool you didn’t have the option to change the lie type So if this was actually in the rough what I’d have to do before is grab it and move it along and try and reposition it in the rough like that which could adjust the distances which isn’t ideal So let’s just take that back to where it was because now what we can do is we can simply tap on this option here which is the more option So I’ve selected the shot I’m now going to tap where we’ve got the three dots in the blue box And then you’ll see you can change the lie type in here So it says fairway but we can tap on that and we can scroll down and choose anything So let’s say it was actually uh I don’t know it was a rough Change it to rough Tap okay and then tap confirm And you’ll see that that stroke is now taking place from the rough but they’ve left it in the original position it was in So if you find that it is listing a stroke as being somewhere where it actually wasn’t rather than dragging it around or moving using the nudge options just simply tap on the stroke go to the more option and then choose lie type and you can change it in here So I’ll change it back to fairway and tap okay So this works quite well if it is a winter greens and you’re wanting to mark your final stroke as being on a green where they haven’t actually mapped the temporary greens Let’s tap confirm and we have now applied the changes to that particular stroke Now let’s take a look at how we can change the club that we have used You’ll see on screen I have the sand wedge used here So I was using the Shot Scope H4 handheld I basically took my sand wedge tapped it onto the device but then before playing my shot I decided to change to my pitching wedge but I forgot to tap it back on the device So it only recorded the shot being the sand wedge which was the initial club I chose If you’re using the V3 golf watch this wouldn’t be a problem because it would basically detect the last tag that you actually used from that location But I didn’t manually tap the pitching wedge onto the device with the H4 So it has recorded that as a sand wedge I need to change that to a pitching wedge So how do I do that well what I do is I tap on the stroke So we see here it’s already selected in blue I’m going to go to the three dots here and I’m going to go where it says club and you’ll see we now get a slightly different view to what we got before So on screen you’re going to see all of your active clubs This basically means that these are the clubs which are in the my bag area of your shot scope account and have been assigned as clubs which you are using You can have as many clubs as you want in the my bag area of the shot scope account but only a certain amount can be assigned to the tags So these are the clubs that you’re using at any one time If you tap on all clubs you’ll see your entire my bag So these are clubs which I’ve had before which I haven’t yet removed from my bag because they’ve got strokes attributed to them So I can actually select one of these So let’s say for example it was my Nike pitch and wedge which I don’t have as an assigned club in the my bag area I could choose that But if I go back to active clubs these are basically just the clubs I’ve currently got assigned And I’m going to select my tailor made pitching wedge And then I’m going to tap continue And then confirm And that will now update So it’s no longer a sand wedge It was now my pitching wedge here Now hopefully you are finding this video tutorial to be useful If you are make sure you hit those like and subscribe buttons And whilst you’re there drop a comment below to let me know what you think of the new editor Do you prefer it or would you rather Shot Scope had stuck with the previous version that you’re used to
Adding Penalty and Positional Strokes
now it’s time to get back to this tutorial where we’re going to take a look at how to add the penalty strokes that you may not have added whilst out on the golf course Okay so I’ve just jumped to a new hole here because I’m going to show you how you can mark in penalty strokes with the new editor Let’s start off with a lost ball So let’s say for example I am on the tee here So I’m going to zoom in So I’ve played a pitching wedge from here and it has captured it as being just off of the green here for my second stroke But let’s say for example in reality I actually hit my T-shot into these trees on the right hand side and the ball was lost But instead of marking it at that moment in time using the device because the device both the H4 handheld and the V3 has got penalty options built into it I’ve just decided I’m going to edit it and add them retrospectively So how do we do that well first of all I’m going to go down where we have our pitch and wedge This is our T-shot I’m going to tap on it and I’m then going to go into the three dots here the more menu So you’ll see you get a couple of different options here for penalty strokes In particular I’m going to use the lost ball one So I’m going to tap lost ball which marks it with a little check I’m then going to tap on the confirm button And you will see it adds another line So let’s see where that’s going So I’m going to move up and you’ll see has marked my first shot here as lost What I’m going to do is I’m going to tap on that and I’m going to move it to the position where it was lost So let’s say for example it’s over here We’re now marking it as lost in the trees And then if I go back to my T-shot and tap on this one you will see that it now marks it as a score of five instead of three And if I tap on the more menu here you’ll see it lists it as the third stroke So this is now shot three because I’ve hit my third ball off of the T If I tap on the cross here you’ll see that I can go back up and if I’ve maybe done that an error let’s say for example it didn’t actually lose a ball which was the case here If I need to delete that I can tap on it and then I can just tap on delete down here What that will then do is if I go back to this stroke here my initial T-shot you’ll see at the top the score has changed But also if I tap on the three dots it’s listed now as stroke one So if you need to add in a lost ball simply tap on the stroke that you made where you lost the ball then go to the menu here for more tap on lost ball and you can then adjust where it is This works the same as well for drop ball So let’s say for example you’ve hit a ball into a pond You can go from the stroke tap on drop ball hit confirm and then what happens is you can move this around So I’m going to basically mark it as being let’s say the pond is right next to that stroke there And then if I zoom in you’ll see that this sand wedge I’m just going to move it a bit closer This sandwich wedge would previously have been my second stroke But when I tap on it and go to more you’ll see it’s now listed as three because I’ve taken a drop from the water So that’s how you can add in a drop ball Now I’ve jumped to the sixth hole here and I’m going to show you how you can add in other types of penalties So let’s say one or two stroke penalties How do we add those well already we’ve gone into the T-shots and we’ve had a look for the options here So we’ve had a look at dropping a ball and losing a ball But how do we just mark a standard penalty well let’s go further up and take a look at this stroke here the sand wedge Let’s say for example I had to take a drop here or I encountered a one stroke penalty for for something or another What I can do is I can simply go to this view here by tapping away from any strokes So I’ve got nothing selected and then I’m going to go to the location where I needed to make the penalty or apply the penalty I’m going to tap on the little plus button You see the bottom here and then I’m going to choose either one or two stroke penalty So let’s say I’m adding a one-stroke penalty I’ll just simply tap one penalty stroke and then tap continue And then it says okay tap where the penalty should be placed So I’m just going to tap next to this one here And then you’ll see it applies it next to it So we’ve now gone from a score of four on this hole to five because we’ve applied a penalty If I tap on this penalty stroke here you’ll see that we can delete it using the delete option And we could go back into the plus button and add a two-stroke penalty And then continue again choose where it occurs And we’ve now gone to a score of six So we’ve added a two-stroke penalty So if you need to add penalties all you do is basically click on the add button when you’ve not got a stroke selected and then use one or two-stroke penalties here If you need to add a penalty for a lost ball or a drop ball you tap on the stroke and then the more button and you add them from in here Now so far in this tutorial we’ve looked mainly at moving existing shots around and adding penalties But how do we add a stroke let’s say for example I’ve been using my H4 handheld and I forgot to tap for one of my strokes which is quite easy done at times So I’m going to go to the seventh hole here and I’ve made my T-shot here and I’ve hit it to the back of the green But let’s pretend that actually my T-shot landed in these trees and I need to add a stroke from this position here So how do we do that well first of all what I do is I go to that location So I’ve basically moved up to here where the trees are And then I’m going to press the plus button It then has the option here to choose to add a shot So we looked in this already to add penalties but I’m going to find the club that I used So let’s say I tapped out with my four iron Okay Okay So I’m going to choose my in fact let’s say my five iron So tailor made 5 iron Tap on the 5 iron And then I’m going to tap on continue At this point here it’s going to say okay where should this shot be placed so I’m basically going to tap in the trees And then you’ll see it has added So if I zoom it out we’ve got our original T-stroke there And then we’ve now got this five iron from the trees Okay So that’s how you can add a stroke in So you essentially go to location where you want to add that shot tap on the plus button then select your club from the active club list or if you need to from all clubs There’s a slight problem here though I’ve used my five iron but actually I’ve only hit it 39 yards So I don’t want this to be included in my performance statistics because it’s going to bring the averages down for this particular shot Now it’s worth noting that any shot like this for a 5iron for example which is under 50 yards will actually be removed from the performance average for that club anyway So it shouldn’t really matter However let’s say that actually if we move it here it’s let’s make it 51 Okay so we’ll move this out Okay make it 57 So 57 yards is probably going to bring my average for the five iron down quite a bit So I want to make sure that this isn’t included in my average stats for that club So how do I do that well in this case we need to mark this as a positional shot because I’ve basically just been knocking out of the trees It’s not a full stroke So I’m going to tap on the um shot to select it and then going to tap on the more menu or the three dots and we’re going to mark it as positional using the positional option that you see here So I’ll tap positional and then I’m going to go to confirm And it will now mark this one as positional Now to double check that is a positional shot all you do is go back into the more menu and you’ll see it’s marked with the tick So now I’m safe with the fact that this will not be included in my average for my five iron and hopefully not bring that down I would say in any case even though Shot Scope will remove any strokes which are under 50 yards I would still mark these as positional Anyway so let’s say for example this was in here If it was my sand wedge for example to me it make even more sense to go in and just mark this one as positional Another use for this might be if you’re playing a par five and you have hit your second shot to a distance where you could potentially go for the green but let’s say for example it’s 200 y and there’s a a burn in front of the green and you’re worried you’re going to land in it You can mark your third stroke as a positional to say to shot scope well actually I was just intending on landing short of the uh green here So it won’t go down as um an attempt as a green in regulation because you’re marking that third stroke as a positional on the par five So I use it in that way Um it’s completely up to you but it’s worth knowing about and how to add them So all you need to do is tap on the stroke three dots and then go to positional then confirm and that one will be marked as a positional Probably more important though as I said from a point of view of your performance averages for the club if it’s over 50 yards just make sure you mark those as positionals
Signing Off and Sharing the Round
Now you’ll see from the holes at the bottom we’ve got tech next to all of them which means we have now fully edited our round There’s a save icon here as well So after you complete each hole I would recommend tapping on the save icon just to make sure that the app has saved your edits It’s not very often but occasionally these apps can crash and you don’t want to lose any of your edits So just saving as you go is useful You’ll see there’s a cross at the top If you tap on the cross to close the editor and close the round it will prompt you to save at that point But you can also exit without saving if you want to Now that we’ve fully edited around how do we go about signing off we’ll simply tap on the sign off button at the top right and it will take us back to this view here Now I’m not going to worry about choosing any of these options here because I’ve gone through them at the start of this tutorial and this is just a test round so it doesn’t really matter but you will see there is a question mark at the top right here And if you tap on that it will take you to Shot Scope’s help and support pages for editing and signing off your round So if after watching this tutorial you’ve still got some questions when you’re using the editor you can jump in here and you can search or you can browse through their um FAQs here To get back to the editor all you do is tap on the back button and it will take you back to this view here Final thing we need to do is we need to decide if we are wanting to include our round in the course hub and our performance statistics I don’t normally record rounds like this in my statistics because obviously this is just a sample for this tutorial but in this case I’ll leave this one checked so that we can take a look at the statistics generated for this particular round and then I’ll hide them later on But for now I’m going to tap on sign off And then what will happen is at this point if you’ve earned any medals for your particular round they will appear It will let you know that you’ve achieved some medals And you’ll see the round has now gone from the pencil icon like this one Oops To the score So we can see in this one I am plus 9 If I want to go in and see my performance statistics for this round well first of all we can tell we are able to see our statistics because we don’t have the little no statistics sign here So if I tap on the round we can then scroll down and we can see our round versus the season We can see the average for things like the par 3es fours and fives We can see how many greens and regulations I hit how many ups and downs and we can see all of our course statistics if we want to We can also go into holes and we can see all of the holes that we’ve played and we get that kind of map view here So we can see where we added like that lost ball for example or in that case I think it might have been the dropped ball If I go back to overview here final thing I want to highlight is how to share your round for social media So if you tap on the share icon at the top right you can then go into the various sharing options So basically you can get this map view here which shows your score and it shows a little bit of information about the hole and you can jump through the different holes here All you then do is tap on the share button and choose to save this image to your mobile device or to send it to anyone that you want You can tap on scorecard and you get a full view of your scorecard So it shows things like the t it shows the par it shows your score and it will show your um total score as well You can go into the photo option here and you can upload from your photos library So if you want to change the picture that’s attributed to this particular hole you can do that You can also take a photo with your camera And this is for individual holes here So it tells you at the bottom left what your score in that particular hole was So treble bogey bogey birdie par Or you can tap on round and it’ll show your total score for the round pars at the top number of holes and the picture As I said you can change if you want to The other thing you can do is you can go to overview and this will give you your strokes gained for your particular round So in this case it’s versus a tour player but we can adjust that and see how did I compare with a 10 handicapper There’s my strokes gained here So I then just tap on share and I’m able to save this to my device So there you have it That’s how to edit your round using the newly updated editor within the Shot Scope mobile app If you
