A little over 8 years ago, my dad and I got rained out of a round. Instead of heading home disappointed, we spent the afternoon inventing a golf game we could play indoors.
We followed a real course scorecard, rolled dice to move down the fairway, added shot outcomes and lies, and once you reached the green you putted a real ball.
I rebuilt it in Excel with macros because that was what I knew. Then I learned to code and turned the spreadsheet into a phone game, build after build.
It's called Golfer's Pair-A-Dice. You pick a club, roll the dice, live with the lie, and try to post a number you'd actually write on a card. On top of that, there is a career, complete with stats, titles and missions to keep you coming back for more! You can even improve your clubs (dice) in the Pro Shop!
Happy to explain how it all works and go further into the backstory if anyone is interested!
