Once you've completed your initial course map, your Map Manager should be good to go. But if you ever need to make any updates, additions, or edits to your map, the Map Manager is where you'll do it. Let's take a look at some of the changes you can make from this space.
Add new holes
If your course has added new holes, you can easily add them to your map using the Map Manager tab. Simply click on the "Add New Hole" button and follow the prompts to add the new hole to your map.
Add new tee or target positions
If your course has added any additional target positions, you can easily add them on the Map Manger using the Add tee/target position button. After adding the position on the map, you can indicate which hole it should be assigned to and add any additional details.
Add new fairways
You can use the Map Manager to add new fairways whether they are standard, safari, or temporary fairways. This allows you to customize the course to match the way it will be played, ensuring accurate mapping and a better experience for players.
To add a new fairway:
Head to your Course tools -> Map Manager
Tap the tee pad you want to throw from
Tap Add fairway
Select the basket you want to throw to
This will create a playable fairway that's associated with the tee pad you're throwing from.
Each tee and target can only have one fairway connecting them. It’s not possible to assign multiple fairways to the same tee-target combination.
Reposition existing tees or targets
If you need to make any adjustments to the location of existing tees or targets, you can easily do so using the Map Manager tab. This is helpful if a tee or target position isn't correctly placed or has been permanently moved due to course maintenance or other reasons.
If the position isn't moving permanently, it would be better to place a new temporary position on the map so that all of the data connected to the current position is not lost.
Reorder and rename holes
If your course has undergone major changes—such as altered flow, added, or removed holes—you can easily reorder and rename holes in the Map Manager. Just use the Actions button in the upper right.
Change pars or edit custom distances
The Map Manager tab also allows you to change the pars for each hole or edit custom distances for specific holes. Custom distances should be used only for small discrepancies. If the distance is off by a large amount, the element should instead be repositioned to match the proper distance more closely.
Add and edit doglegs
Lastly, you can add and edit doglegs using the Map Manager tab. This will primarily be used when creating new fairways on the map, but can also be used for small adjustments to existing doglegs.
With the Map Manager tab, you have full control over your course map. Keep your course information accurate and up-to-date by utilizing this helpful tool. Happy mapping!
