Using The Gap Time Monitor

How to use the Gap Time Monitor feature to manage pace of play on the golf course.

1. Accessing the Gap Time Monitor 

• Click the tab located in the bottom right corner of your Dashboard where your course map is displayed

• This will open the Gap Time Monitor - displaying a linear representation of your active groups/tags currently playing.

2. Understanding The Course Segments 

• Familiarize yourself with how each hole is divided. This is done by the par of each hole:

  • Par 3's: Divided into (2) segments - Tee & Green

  • Par 4's: Divided into (3) segments - Tee, Fairway, & Green
    

  • Par 5's: Divided into (4) segments - Tee, 1st Fairway, 2nd Fairway, & Green. This helps show if a group is waiting or playing on the first part of the fairway or closer to the green.

3. Viewing Detailed Information 

• Hover your mouse over any of the groups/tags on the Gap Time Monitor.

• Detailed information will appear including:

  • The group's pace of play

  • The group's duration of play already

  • Player/Member/Guest names (if the tag is or tags are appropriately assigned within the tee sheet)

  • Actual Starting Time

  • Starting Hole

  • Current Hole Group Is On

  • Interval/Gap between them and the group ahead of them

4. Managing Pace of Play

• Use the information from the Gap Time Monitor in conjunction with your map widgets to manage your flow and pace of play effectively.
