Two pages for every hole.
Every hole gets two facing pages. The yardage page carries yardage arcs from the tees and to the center of the green, front, center and back distances, elevation change, contours and slope arrows, target yardages, widths from hazard to hazard and a tee box inset. The green page carries a slope heat map, slope arrows and slope percentages on a 5-yard grid across the green. Every hole and green is drawn from our drone survey of your course, and each book is designed by hand, with your club's cover. A QR code on each hole opens an aerial fly-through and a 3D green.

Questions about greens books
What is a greens book?
A greens book is a pocket book for players with every hole's layout and yardages and every green's slopes and fall lines. Ours are built from our own drone survey of your course.
What styles are there?
Our greens books come in three styles: a standard full-color book, a black-and-white tournament edition, and an interactive book with a QR code on every hole.
What does the QR code on each hole do?
The QR code on each hole of the greens book opens an aerial fly-through of the hole and an interactive 3D green, so players can see the hole and the green before they play it.
Can we use the books in tournaments?
Our greens books are designed to conform to Rule 4.3 limits for tournament play. The QR codes don't change that.
Can the cover carry our club's branding?
Yes. Every greens book gets a custom cover to the club's branding.
Where do the yardages and slopes come from?
The yardages, slopes and fall lines in our greens books come from the drone survey's terrain model. They are drawn for play, not as a survey of the course.
How are the books paid for?
Private clubs buy their greens books for the pro shop. Municipal courses and tournaments can fund them through local sponsors with the Fairway Alliance program.
