A worked example

One organizer.
Seven friends. Bandon.

Three days on the Oregon coast. Six courses to choose between, four rounds that counted, two on each of the two playing days, one trip result at the end of it — and a stack of expenses that somebody had to sort out by hand. This is that trip, screen by screen.

What this page is. A walkthrough of how a real trip runs through ClubLogic, using the product as it works today. The eight golfers are illustrative and the numbers are made up; the flows, the screens and the rules they obey are not. Where something on this page is not yet built, it says so in the same words used everywhere else on this site.

The setup

Eight golfers and one very organised man.

Ray Marsh has run this trip for six years. He books it, he fronts most of it, and he spends the following fortnight working out who owes him what. Seven friends come along and contribute mainly opinions.

The group is not a club. They are a group in ClubLogic — eight connections who play together, with the same formats, the same scoring and the same analytics a member club gets.

Before they go Live

Six courses, previewed from the sofa.

The resort has six courses and the group has four rounds. That argument used to happen over text messages and half-remembered blog posts. Now it happens over the actual holes: each of the six can be opened in ClubLogic before anyone gets on a plane, walked hole by hole, with the greens read at the same resolution you get standing on them.

Course 1

Preview ready

Hole-by-hole flip-through, tee and par data, green map with slope and contour.

Course 2

Preview ready

Same. The group argues about the sixth for two weeks.

Course 3

Preview ready

Ben notices the forced carry on 4 and quietly stops arguing.

Course 4

Preview ready

Ratings pulled per tee set, so the format can be set up handicap-aware.

Course 5

Preview ready

Front nine, back nine, every green, from a kitchen table in November.

Course 6

Preview ready

The one they end up cutting. It stays in the library for next year.

Six verified previews, four selected rounds. Choosing which four is the whole point of being able to look first.

Three days

Travel, then thirty-six, then thirty-six.

  1. Day one · arrival

    Nobody plays. Everybody talks.

    The group lands, checks in, and settles the schedule: four rounds across the next two days, two courses a day, pairings drawn for each. Ray sets the trip up in ClubLogic as four rounds under one group, so the four cards roll into one trip result at the end rather than sitting as four unrelated scores.

  2. Day two · two rounds

    Morning round, lunch, afternoon round.

    Both rounds are scored hole by hole in the app. Distances come off the wrist so nobody is pulling a phone out into the wind on an exposed tee. Best-ball in the morning, individual net in the afternoon, both handicap-aware off the tee ratings pulled during the preview.

  3. Day three · two rounds

    The same again, with the trip on the line and less in the legs.

    Two more counted rounds. The trip standing updates as cards come in, so by the back nine of the fourth round everyone knows exactly what they need — which is, on balance, worse for their golf.

  4. Afterwards

    Two results, and then the admin.

    Four round results and one trip result. Then the part of the trip nobody enjoys, which is the part the next two sections are about.

Results Live

Four rounds counted. One trip won.

Each round has its own result — the card, the format, who took it. Those four then aggregate into a single trip standing, net to par across everything that counted.

Ray wins the trip by two, which he will mention. Ben wins the second afternoon round outright off a 14, which he will mention considerably more.

This screen does not talk to money. A trip result is a result. It cannot create a transfer, cannot pick a recipient, and cannot put a number in anybody's payment screen. The next section happens because Ray decides to do it.

The expenses Preview

Ray typed every one of these himself.

Ray fronted the green fees, the caddies and two nights of lodging. Squaring that up is the oldest job on any golf trip, and in ClubLogic it is still a job — it is not, and will never be, something the app does on his behalf.

Seven requests. Seven recipients Ray chose. Seven amounts Ray typed. Every approved send moves real USDC on Base mainnet.

What Ray actually did, seven times

  1. Opened Request. Nothing appeared on its own when the trip ended.
  2. Picked the person. The seven he had just played with were near the top of the list — which is the only thing the trip is allowed to influence. He still tapped a name.
  3. Typed the amount. Off the receipts on the kitchen table. Not one of these numbers was suggested, pre-filled or calculated by ClubLogic.
  4. Wrote what it was for. "Green fees & caddie, day 2" is a sentence a human writes so another human recognises the charge.
  5. Sent it as a request. Each of the seven reviewed it and approved it from their own wallet, or did not. Ray cannot take money from anybody.
Nothing here is settling a result. Dan finished second in the trip and Ben finished fourth, and it made no difference at all to what either of them was asked for — they were asked for what they cost. Ray's requests are about green fees, caddies and beds. The leaderboard is on a different screen and the two never speak.
