Too little visibility
Scorecards and tee sheets show who started—not how play is currently moving across the entire course.

PACE-OF-PLAY SOFTWARE FOR GOLF CLUBS
Take control of pace of play – spot golf course bottlenecks live.
GolfTakt is pace-of-play software for golf clubs. It gives club management and marshals an anonymous live overview, detects pace deviations, and shows where a delay likely begins.

THE OPERATIONAL CHALLENGE
By the time complaints arrive, congestion has often already formed.
Without a shared live picture, club teams react to calls, isolated observations, or guesswork. That costs time—and a waiting group can easily be mistaken for the cause.
Action comes too late
By the time a delay is reported, checked, and located, it has often reached several groups behind it.
Symptom instead of source
The visibly waiting group is often only affected. Intervening in the wrong place creates frustration and does not resolve the bottleneck.
FROM VISIBILITY TO DECISION
One shared operating picture for the day in play.
GolfTakt combines live positions, target pace, and the movement of neighbouring groups into a clear operational priority for your team.
LIVE OVERVIEW
See the whole course without constantly asking for updates.
Participating groups appear anonymously on the course map. Managers see position, pace status, and developing bottlenecks in one current view.
Deviations become visible before they affect the whole course.
GolfTakt monitors actual progress against the configured target range and highlights relevant delays.
Not every waiting group is the cause.
GolfTakt examines the delay chain and indicates where it likely begins. The operational decision deliberately remains with the club team.
REAL HOLE OVERVIEW
Every hole and participating group at a glance.
The hole overview anonymously shows which groups are on each hole, how far they have progressed, and their current operating status.
REAL DEMO VIEW
THE SIGNAL THAT MATTERS
The delay starts at the front. The frustration appears behind it.
A group can appear slow because it is waiting itself. GolfTakt places groups in course order and shows which group likely needs support—and which groups are simply being held up.

GolfTakt provides an evidence-based operational indication, not an automatic judgement. Managers and marshals retain decision authority.

MANAGERS AND MARSHALS

- ✓The club remains in controlGolfTakt supports decisions; it does not issue automatic sanctions.

Purpose-limited access
The operations view is intended for the authorised roles of the relevant club.
CLUB AND COURSE SETUP
Configured around your operation.
GolfTakt is configured with the club, course data, and operating roles. The live view then follows the real sequence and structure of your course.

Course routing, holes, target pace, and relevant operational data are configured to fit.
9 or 18 holes
GolfTakt supports rounds and courses with nine or eighteen holes.
Standard starts
Regular tee times are followed in their planned order around the course.

OPERATIONAL VALUE
Less guesswork. More focused attention.
GolfTakt is not built around inflated promises. It is designed to give your team a better basis for practical decisions during the day.
Act earlier
Relevant deviations become visible before complaints and waiting times spread.
Deploy attention better
Marshals and managers focus on the point most likely to matter.
Communicate more calmly
A shared operating picture supports factual coordination within the team and on the course.
Learn from operations
Field testing shows where rules, workflows, and course configuration can be improved further.
QUESTIONS FROM CLUB MANAGERS
Practical answers before a demo.
GolfTakt is available as a demo and is in field testing. That is why we explain not only what the system can do, but also where human judgement and real course conditions still matter.
Ask another questionDoes every player need an account?
No. Group participation requires no personal account. One person per group can start the anonymous session using the QR code.
Does every player in the group need to participate?
No. One suitable smartphone per group is enough. The location represents the anonymous group session, not individual player profiles.
Does GolfTakt replace a marshal?
No. GolfTakt does not replace experience or on-course communication. It helps prioritise attention and provides a shared operating picture for more focused action.
Can we use GolfTakt without a dedicated marshal?
Yes. A manager or another authorised club staff member can monitor the live view and act directly when needed. Roles are adapted to the club’s actual operation.
How does GolfTakt identify the likely source?
GolfTakt considers position, pace deviation, and the movement of consecutive groups. This indicates the likely beginning of the delay chain. It is an operational assessment—not an automatic judgement.
Who decides whether to intervene?
Always the authorised club team. GolfTakt prioritises information and supports the workflow; managers and marshals decide based on the situation on the course.
What technology do players and the club need?
Players can use the browser-based start or the public GolfTakt apps for iPhone and Android. They need a suitable smartphone, location permission, and a data connection. Club staff use the operations view on a suitable browser device.
What happens with weak GPS or mobile coverage?
Location accuracy and freshness can vary in difficult coverage. That is why these conditions are tested in the field. Club staff should always assess signals alongside their course knowledge.
How is player privacy protected?
Participation is anonymous and purpose-limited. Names, email addresses, and personal player profiles are not required for the group session. Location sharing is designed around the current round.
Does GolfTakt support 9 and 18 holes and shotgun starts?
Yes. Setup can be configured for 9- or 18-hole operation, regular tee times, and shotgun starts.
What is available today—and what is planned?
Browser-based player participation, live visibility, and operational workflows are available as a demo. The native player apps for iPhone and Android are published on the App Store and Google Play. Notifications on paired smartwatches are supported; native manager and marshal apps remain planned.
