Stay Focused with Profile Goals in VPAR Premium

If you’re serious about improving your golf game, setting clear targets is the key to success. That’s why VPAR Premium’s Profile Goals app feature is designed to keep you accountable and motivated every time you step onto the course. By setting personal objectives for the season, you’ll have a clear roadmap to push your game further than ever before.

Set Your Targets, Track Your Progress

With Profile Goals, you can set and monitor four key performance targets:

Handicap Target

Dreaming of getting your handicap into single digits? Or perhaps breaking 20 for the first time? Whatever your goal, setting a Handicap Target helps you stay focused on every round, ensuring you’re making the right improvements to lower your golf score over time.

Low Gross Score Target

There’s nothing quite like that personal best feeling. Set a Low Gross Score Target and chase that career-best round. Whether it’s breaking 80, 90, or 100, this goal keeps you striving to fine-tune your game and achieve your best golf score yet.

Rounds Played This Month Target

Consistency is key in golf. By setting a Rounds Played This Month Target, you create a routine and make sure you’re getting enough reps in to improve. Whether it’s four rounds or ten, having a goal keeps you committed to playing regularly.

Rounds Played This Year Target

Long-term progress comes from staying dedicated throughout the entire season. Your Rounds Played This Year Target helps you stay accountable for your overall commitment to golf. More rounds mean more experience, and more experience leads to better performance!

The Power of Staying Accountable

The Profile Goals app feature isn’t just about numbers—it’s about keeping you engaged, motivated, and continuously improving. Every time you play, you’ll have a purpose, knowing that each round contributes to your overall targets.

No more aimless rounds. No more drifting through the season without direction. With Profile Goals in VPAR Premium, you’ll push your game to levels you didn’t think were possible.

Set your goals today and start playing with purpose!

VPAR Feature Blog: Custom Hole Configuration 

Posted on by Ivana Miteva

Golf is all about adaptability. From adjusting to changing course conditions to tweaking your club selection, flexibility is key. That’s why VPAR’s Custom Hole Configuration feature is such a game-changer, allowing you to set a start hole and an end hole before you even tee off.

Why This Feature Matters

Whether you’re playing a casual round, competing in a shotgun start, or tackling a unique routing at your local course, being able to predefine your hole sequence provides a seamless experience. No more manually skipping holes or trying to remember where you should be heading next—VPAR has you covered.

Ideal for Twilight & Time-Sensitive Rounds

Sometimes, you don’t have time for a full 18 holes. Maybe you’re squeezing in a quick nine before sunset or playing an abbreviated round due to course conditions. This feature lets you define exactly how many holes you plan to play and ensures your scorecard reflects your custom routing.

Stay in Sync with Your Playing Partners

If you’re joining a group already mid-round or splitting a round across multiple sessions, having the ability to set a specific start and end hole ensures your scorecard stays aligned with the group. Everyone sees the same leaderboard, making competitive and social play more streamlined than ever.

Enhances Course Variety & Personal Challenges

Want to shake things up and play the back nine first? Or maybe try an alternate routing for fresh challenges? The Custom Hole Configuration feature allows you to personalize your golf experience beyond the traditional front-to-back setup.

Setting up your custom holes in VPAR is quick and easy:

Create a game in the VPAR app.

Select your course and confirm your players.

Choose your starting hole and end hole before teeing off.
