Birdie Release Notes V1.2.7

Jan 20, 2026

Release date: January 20, 2026

The Vibe: Hyper-local insights and WHS-compliant math for the serious (but still funny) golfer.

Version 1.2.7 is for the players who want to dismantle a golf course hole-by-hole. We’ve gone deep into Course Analysis and WHS Handicap logic so you can stop carrying a calculator in your pocket.

The Heavy Hitting Features

  • Hole-by-Hole Heatmaps: Identify your "Nemesis Hole." We’ll show you which holes are actually costing you strokes vs. your handicap.

  • Expected Score Benchmarking: We compare your actual performance against your handicap and stroke index. Are you beating the field or just yourself?

  • The Coaching Prompt System: Our "Lab Insights" give you actual advice based on your data. If you always miss short on the 8th, we’re going to tell you to take an extra club.

  • Real WHS Handicap Tracking: We calculate your index using the best 8 of your last 20 rounds, including soft and hard caps. It’s official-ish science for the Saturday morning grinder.

The Bottom Line: You can’t fix what you can’t measure. v3.0 gives you a professional-grade strategy for your local muni.
