GolfCore

GolfCore is club software that puts the tee sheet, the caddie program and the member app in one system. Staff assign caddies from tee times, caddies confirm by text, and golfers use the same app for course GPS and live scoring. It is published by Golfcore LLC and led by founder and CEO Peter Wang. Courses and golfers can write a GolfCore review using this SURVEY FORM.

What GolfCore offers

• ClubOffice. The staff side: tee sheet, booking requests, caddie assignments, SMS confirmations, caddie arrival and time tracking, and a club roster of members, guests, staff and caddies.
• Anser club copilot. An AI assistant for staff that can book tee times, assign caddies, send texts and answer questions about club records in plain language.
• Club events. Tournaments with shotgun and split-tee starts, live leaderboards, group messaging and on-course food orders.
• Golfer app. Free course GPS, scorecards and watch apps. AI caddie advice, modeled wind and green contours (where mapped) need a GolfCore account and the CaddyCore Premium upgrade.

Caddie management

Caddie operations are what set GolfCore apart from most tee sheets on GCTR. Each tee time carries its players and their caddies, the caddie gets a text to confirm, and the caddie yard can track arrivals and time on the job. GolfCore says the system has run the caddie program at The Institute Golf Club in Morgan Hill, California since 2023. GCTR does not yet have a caddie management comparison, so GolfCore appears on our Tee Sheets comparison.

The tee sheet

Based on GolfCore's answers to our feature form:

• Group bookings with player slots, caddies and a group chat. Booking requests can include up to 20 players, subject to club approval, so fivesomes are supported.
• A buddy list that shows prior playing partners when adding guests.
• Tee times are edited through forms, not drag and drop.
• Closures and events show on the calendar to inform staff, but GolfCore does not describe them as hard booking blocks.
• It runs in a web browser on desktops, laptops and tablets, with iPhone and Android apps.

GolfCore left several rows blank rather than guess, including squeeze-time allocation, ballots and lotteries, recurring leagues, waitlists, dynamic pricing, card on file, prepayment and third-party booking engine or distribution integrations. Treat those as open questions until GolfCore confirms them.

Pricing

GolfCore lists ClubOffice at $200 a month or $2,000 a year for the club, plus tax. It says new subscribers pay $100 for the first month or $1,000 for the first year, then the regular rate, and that a free club trial is available.

Questions to ask in a demo

• How does a caddie assignment flow from the tee sheet to the caddie's phone, and what happens when a caddie declines?
• Can the tee sheet hard-block times for maintenance, outings or member-only windows?
• Does GolfCore take green-fee payments at booking, or does that stay in our point of sale?
• Can it connect to our existing booking engine, POS or member billing system?
• Who owns the golfer and caddie data, and can we export it if we leave?

Note: GolfCore golf course software is not related to the ProTee simulator software sold under the same name.
