Custom course mapping, tournament game planning, and tools to play with confidence.
GOLF COURSE PREVIEWS
KNOW THE COURSE BEFORE YOU ARRIVE.
Playing a practice round or heading into a tournament blind? Prepare with confidence.
Prepare Before You Play. Commit With Confidence.
Our Course Previews are designed to take your preparation one step further—before you ever step foot on an unfamiliar course.
By studying the course ahead of time, you can arrive at your practice round with a plan, rather than starting from scratch. Take these insights to your yardage book or directly onto the course, where you can evaluate conditions, refine your strategy, and make your final decisions.
The goal isn’t to make every decision for you. It’s to provide the knowledge and clarity needed to make more confident, committed decisions when it matters.
Could you do this preparation on your own? Absolutely.
The Midwest Forecaddie simply aims to save you time by organizing detailed, yet easy-to-understand information that helps you prepare more efficiently.
Save time on your preparation. Skip the hours of studying scorecards, satellite maps, and yardage books. We do the homework and deliver a ready-to-use preview, so you can spend your time practicing and playing.
FOR COACHES & INSTRUCTORS
We know how busy your season is.
College coaches, high school coaches, and instructors already juggle travel, lineups, practice plans, and players. We've been on the coaching side and understand how little time is left for scouting a new course. Let us provide course previews for your team or players so you can spend your time coaching.
No special order needed. Simply purchase a General or Custom Preview below for each player or for your team, then complete the preview information form.
