In-depth photographic look at all the golf courses I play
I'm an avid golfer; it's my main hobby. I decided to start taking pictures of all the courses I play. While there's a lot of golf websites out there, none of them really try to document the courses in depth and look at each hole, along with the course facilities like the practice areas. I live in Chicago and am starting with the courses in this area (of which there are dozens of public courses to play). While I play golf, I take photos with my phone of every (relevant) aspect of the golf course I can think of. Then they're processed and organized on the website. Obviously I'm starting this…

In plain words
A photo documentation site for golf courses that provides in-depth visual coverage of individual holes and course facilities. Created by a Chicago-based golfer, it features detailed smartphone photography of public courses in the area, organized and processed for easy browsing. The site aims to fill a gap in existing golf resources by documenting courses comprehensively, including practice areas and course history, with plans to expand through community contributions.

I mapped every US golf courseJul 2026 · golfcoursebrowser.com · ▲223I got tired of Googling basic course info, so I made a free directory of every US course Google filters for golf course results are terrible so I built a better way to browse courses using OSM as the backbone.... https://golfcoursebrowser.com/ It's a work in progress and mostly US for now, but I want to expand to the rest of North America, the EU, and the rest of the world ASAP. It's free, no ads, no login, no bs. If you spot anything wrong (bad info, a missing course, wrong scorecard), you can flag it right on the course page. I actually read those and fix them. Still a lot…

I've seen some interests in (simulation) video games here on HN so I thought I'd share a short version of our story. More than 6 years ago, me and my friend from university were playing around with an idea of making a game we always wanted to play. We worked on it on weekends but the progress was quite slow, especially due to so many dead ends and wasted effort. Eventually however, we solidified our direction and decided to take the risk to resign from our well paid SWE jobs and work on it full time. It took more than a year but yesterday we have finally released it on Steam:…
