You don't have a swing problem β you have a practice problem. The Adaptive Golfer brings strokes-gained measurement to everyday practice: diagnose your game, get a plan that adapts, and see whether each session actually worked. Built by a golfer who got worse, then fixed it.

Hello Product Hunt! π I'm Scott, a software engineer and avid golfer. I'm proud to introduce The Adaptive Golfer, both a web application and a book that have been years in the making. Born out of the frustration of beating balls on the range (or into a screen in my garage) and struggling to improve.
A few winters ago I spent over $5,000 on a garage golf simulator to finally get better during the winter break. I went into the winter a 7 handicap and came out a 9 β measurably worse, with a self-built hook a coach needed most of the summer to fix. The problem was never effort. It was that all my practice had no structure, no measurement, and no feedback. I was hitting balls and hoping.
So I did the thing engineers do: I rebuilt practice as a system. The Adaptive Golfer brings the strokes-gained logic that transformed professional golf down to the two or three hours a week a normal adult actually has:
* Diagnose your game across five skill pillars * Practice a plan built for your weak spots, not a generic list * Measure every session with Practice Strokes Gained β a real number, not a feeling that changes day-to-day * Adjust automatically as you improve
It started as a book (also launching today on Amazon), then became the software, because I tried to run the system on paper and twice failed to keep it up by hand. π
Two launch-day things:
π PH exclusive: code PH30 gets you 30% off your first payment. Best value is on the annual plan ($144 β $100.80 for a full year). Launch week only, expires Aug 4. The app has a 14-day free trial with no card, so you can run the whole system before deciding.
π The companion book launched on Amazon this morning too β the complete method on paper, and the eBook is $0.99 for the first 72 hours.
I'd genuinely love this crowd's take: what's the one part of your golf game you've never been able to measure? I'll be here all day answering everything.

honestly love the strokes gained angle for practice, but you should add a quick "session summary" that texts or emails me after each range visit with what I worked on and how it compared to last time. right now I have to dig into the app to see progress and most days I just forget. even a 3 line recap would make me actually stick with the plan

@beethovenbachΒ That's a great idea! I will definitely get that on the list of feature updates. Like you said, that data is already there in the web app, so sending it out in an email would be easy and informative.
