Notes:
- We have no plan to charge for map subscriptions. If at any point we decide to start charging for map subscriptions, Guru’s purchased prior to the date of the announcement of the plan to start charging will be grandfathered as long as the original purchaser owns them (i.e., the original purchaser of that Guru will never be charged for map downloads). Membership Policy
- View scores in "My Rounds" under Member menu. Golf Guru will develop a simple
interface for stats in the future.
- Depends on availability of aerial imagery, scorecard, and hole layout information. Requestor may be asked to provide scorecard and layout information. First requested course guaranteed in 7 days if all information is readily available.
