Hello all!
Our latest release is here and there are plenty of great features ranging from notifications to improvements in Clippd Capture. Read on to find out more!
You will now receive notifications for the following interactions in Clippd:
When using Clippd Capture to enter practice round data, you will now have the option to switch to auto-club select. This means your club will be pre-populated for tee shots and approach shots based on what you have previously hit for that yardage. As an example, if you regularly hit an 8-iron 140-150 yards, you will now see the ‘Club used’ box pre-populated with an 8-iron. You can change the club if the auto-select is incorrect.
We only allow this during practice rounds due to the rules of golf surrounding tournament play.
Pin location
When using Enhanced Mode, you will now be asked to select the pin location and where your ball finished for approach and around the green shots. This means our insights will be even more accurate.
Adding missing shots
You can now go back into a Capture round and add a missing shot without having to delete subsequent shots on the hole.
Head to Teams, then the trophy icon towards the top right corner to see all the leaderboards and streaks for your players.
The data science team employed Clippd’s very own proprietary ball-flight simulator to understand the effects of altitude and temperature on ball flight and what this means for performance.
Based on the conditions in which a shot was played, our models compute the adjusted distance for the shot, much like a golfer might mentally compute during a round. For example, at sea level and 5C, a shot from 150 yards actually plays more like a 154-yard shot. The same 150-yard shot, at an altitude of 1000m and temperature of 23C plays more like 145 yards.
Unlike other layers of context (weather and course conditions), altitude and temperature are automatically calculated and therefore require zero input from the user.

- Total birdies
- Consecutive greens in regulation
- Consecutive 1-putt
Head to Teams, then the trophy icon towards the top right corner to see all the leaderboards and streaks for your players.
Temperature and altitude
We now factor in temperature and altitude into Shot Quality. These additional layers of context help us to more accurately measure the skill required to play each shot.The data science team employed Clippd’s very own proprietary ball-flight simulator to understand the effects of altitude and temperature on ball flight and what this means for performance.
