Social Golf Apps

The Buddie Golf App Helps You Build Friendships Over Golf

— July 20, 2016 — Tech
Buddie Golf is an innovative social golf app that is designed to ensure that people who play golf don't simply get the most out of the sporting aspect of it, but are also able to fully leverage it as a way of enjoying meaningful connections with people and accessing networking opportunities.

Golf is known to be an exceptionally fun sport to play. However, it can sometimes be difficult for you to find a player to play with and then go about coordinating times and locations in a manner that works for both you and your friend. The Buddie Golf social golf app solves this problem by making it possible for you to quickly and easily be paired up with someone who wants to play golf in the same course as you; the app even allows you to play with matching handicaps.

This social golf app ultimately ensures that golfers spend more time on the course and less time on their phones trying to find someone to play with.

Trend Themes
1. Social Golf Networks - Create golf networks through social apps that pair players up, increasing golf players and the likelihood of networking opportunities.
2. Matchmaking Golf Apps - Provide solutions for golfers wanting to find players to play with by developing specialized apps that perform similar services to dating apps, but for golf players instead.
3. Golf-based Social Networking - Maximize the social aspects of golf by developing apps that allow golfers to make friends, connect with other players and network on the golf course.
Industry Implications
1. Sports Industry - Expand the golfing industry by creating apps that make it easier for golfers to play and network with others, making golf more accessible to new players and a new demographic.
2. Technology Industry - Provide innovative technology solutions by creating specialized social apps for golfers interested in finding players to play with, thus enhancing the golfer's experience and making golfing more accessible and more fun.
3. Networking Industry - Create opportunities for golfers to engage in networking while playing golf by providing specialized social apps and other services that facilitate the meeting and collaboration of players with similar backgrounds and interests.
