Hole-by-Hole Strategy: Plan Every Shot with AI Golf Pro

App UpdatesOctober 19, 2025• By Alar
Learn how AI Golf Pro helps you plan the perfect strategy for every hole. From aerial course views to precise distance calculations, see how to prepare your shots hole-by-hole before you even start the round.

Stop Guessing, Start Planning

One of the biggest advantages in golf is knowing your course inside and out. Playing a new course? You're at a disadvantage without knowing the layout. But even on courses you play regularly, it's easy to make the same mistakes round after round. With AI Golf Pro's map view, you can study every hole, identify trouble spots, and plan smarter shots before you even arrive at the course—whether it's your first time playing or you're finally ready to fix that (double) bogey hole you always struggle with.

Strategic Shot Planning

The video shows the main benefits of the map view:

  • Aerial Overview: Get a bird's-eye view of each hole, showing hazards, bunkers, and the best landing zones

  • Distance Markers: See precise distances to the front, pin, and back of the green

  • Shot Visualization: Plan your ideal shot path with visual guides showing distance and trajectory

  • Multi-Hole Prep: Review multiple holes in advance to develop your round strategy

How to Use Hole-by-Hole Navigation

1. Select Your Hole: Tap any hole number (1-18) from the left sidebar to instantly view that hole's layout.

2. Study the Yardages: Check the distance to the pin, front, and back of the green. In the example above, Hole 1 is a Par 4 playing at 416 yards to the pin.

3. Plan Your Strategy: Use the distance markers (83, 168, 177 yards shown) to decide where you want to land your tee shot and approach.

4. Visualize Your Shot: The dashed line shows your planned shot path, helping you commit to your strategy before stepping up to the tee.

Note: This video shows an early version of the map planning feature. We're continuously improving it and adding new capabilities. One upcoming feature we're excited about: saving your strategies for later use. Imagine planning your shots for a new course a few days before your golf vacation, then loading that prepared strategy on your phone when you arrive at the first tee. No more rushing through course prep in the parking lot.
