I Gained 20 Yards Overnight – Did It Change My Scores?

Why Golf Planning Broken and How We Fixed It.

Every year, 12 million U.S. golfers travel to play in tournaments, yet the experience of planning for the trip is the opposite of enjoyable. With more than 100,000 golf events held annually and no central platform to search them all, players and families spend an average of 4.7 hours researching and planning every single tournament.

The result: 65% of tournament golfers report dissatisfaction with current planning resources—leading to frustration, wasted money, wasted time, and missed deadlines.

Hubble.GOLF solves all of these challenges. Launching today, the new all-in-one platform unites tournament discovery, travel booking, budgeting, and team coordination into a single, seamless experience.

Hubble Makes Golf Planning Easier for Everyone Involved in Competitive Golf.

  1. Parents of Junior Golfers
    Hubble.GOLF helps parents of junior golfers create itineraries, organize travel, build a smart budget, and track their child’s development all in one place.
  2. Adult Amateur Golfers
    Hubble.GOLF helps adult amateur golfers locate events that fit their schedule, score the best deals on tournament hotels, and stay on budget.
  3. Golf Coaches and Instructors
    Hubble.GOLF helps golf coaches and instructors coordinate team schedules and logistics with ease, communicate with players and parents, search for tournaments, and track player development.
  4. Tournament Directors and Organizers
    Hubble.GOLF helps tournament directors and organizers do away with outdated planning methods, ensure smooth registration, and gain access to a larger, more connected community of players and fans.

Everything You Need, All in One Place

1. Comprehensive Tournament Discovery

Gone are the days of bookmarking dozens of different tournament websites. Our database contains thousands of tournaments nationwide, from local junior golf events to major amateur championships. Search by location, date, age group, or skill level and find exactly what you’re looking for in seconds.

For junior golf families, this means no more missing registration deadlines or overlooking perfect developmental opportunities. For competitive amateurs, it means discovering events you never knew existed. Our golf tournament platform centralizes what used to be scattered across countless websites, email lists, and word-of-mouth recommendations.

2. Intelligent Itinerary Planning

Building a tournament schedule used to mean juggling spreadsheets, calendars, and sticky notes. Now, you can create comprehensive itineraries that include tournaments, travel time, and family commitments. Everything syncs seamlessly across your devices, so you’re never double-booked again.

Parents managing multiple junior golf schedules will especially appreciate having all tournament information centralized in one place. Share schedules with coaches, family members, or carpool partners with ease. You can view travel time between events, helping you plan realistic schedules that don’t leave players exhausted before they even reach the first tee.

3. Integrated Travel & Booking

Why visit multiple websites to plan one tournament trip? Book hotels directly through Hubble, often with exclusive discounts negotiated specifically for our golf community. We’ve partnered with major travel providers to make tournament travel simpler.

As we continue to expand our travel integration features, we’re working to add flight and rental car booking capabilities, along with enhanced preference tracking to make your tournament travel planning even more seamless.

4. Cash Caddie: Your Financial Command Center

Tournament golf can be expensive, but it doesn’t have to be mysterious. Our Cash Caddie feature helps you track expenses, monitor budgets, and even calculate mileage for tax purposes. Finally, you’ll have clear visibility into the true cost of competitive golf.

For junior golf families making significant investments in their young athlete’s development, this transparency is invaluable. Track everything from entry fees and travel costs to equipment expenses and coaching investments. Generate reports for tax preparation, college scholarship applications, or simply understanding where your tournament budget actually goes. Set spending limits by category and receive alerts before you exceed them.

5. A Community That Gets It

Connect with other golfers, parents, and coaches who understand the unique challenges of tournament life. Share course-specific insights, get advice on navigating college golf recruitment, compare notes on training approaches, and build relationships that extend far beyond the 18th hole.

Our community features include tournament-specific discussion threads where players share local knowledge about courses, lodging recommendations from families who’ve been there before, and even carpooling coordination for regional events. For junior golf development, parents can connect with others at similar stages of the journey, sharing both the victories and the valuable lessons learned along the way.

Built by Golfers, for Golfers

Our team includes competitive players, tournament parents, and coaches who’ve experienced every scenario you can imagine. We’ve missed registration deadlines, booked hotels in the wrong city, and showed up to tournaments unprepared. Those painful lessons became the foundation for every feature in Hubble.

We didn’t just build software – we solved problems we’ve actually lived. Every feature exists because someone on our team has a story about needing exactly that tool at exactly the wrong moment. That lived experience shapes not just what our golf tournament platform does, but how it works and what it prioritizes.

What's Coming Next?

This launch is just the beginning. Over the coming months, you’ll see expanded tournament coverage, enhanced community features, and tools that make competitive golf even more accessible. We’re exploring partnerships with golf academies, junior golf organizations, club manufacturers, and tournament organizers to create an even richer ecosystem.

Features in development include performance tracking tools that help players identify strengths and improvement areas across multiple tournaments, enhanced coach collaboration tools for team management, and integration with popular golf GPS and stat-tracking apps. We’re also working on scholarship resource centers specifically for families navigating the junior golf to college golf pathway.

Most importantly, we’re listening. Your feedback drives our roadmap, and every feature request gets serious consideration from our development team. As competitive golfers and tournament parents ourselves, we know the platform is never truly “finished” – it evolves as the needs of the competitive golf community evolve.

Join the Revolution

Competitive golf has been stuck in the past for too long. Scattered information, manual processes, and disconnected systems have made tournament golf harder than it needs to be. Hubble changes that equation.

Whether you’re a junior golfer chasing college scholarships, a parent managing multiple kids’ tournament schedules, or a coach working with an entire team, our golf tournament platform was built with your specific challenges in mind. We understand the unique demands of competitive golf because we live them alongside you.

Ready to Simplify Your Golf Life?

Creating your Hubble account takes less than two minutes, and you can start exploring tournaments immediately. No long learning curves, no complicated setup processes – just powerful tools that work the way you think.

Welcome to Hubble.GOLF. Welcome to the future of competitive golf.

Ready to get started? Sign up for your free Hubble account today and discover what organized tournament golf feels like.

Have questions about Hubble or ideas for future features? We’d love to hear from you. Connect with our team through the community section or reach out directly – we read every message and we’re genuinely excited to hear how we can make this golf tournament platform even better for you.

Video Description

I gained 20 yards off the tee with the driver overnight to see if it would help my scores. Playing on the course with tour player distances but still using my accuracy — or lack of — to see if it affects my scores and chances of playing pro golf.

Hitting the golf ball longer and straighter is everyone’s dream, but just what does it do to your golf game and is it a goal you should be chasing in your game?

    I agree, speed does not just translate to driver…helps through the bag all the way to pitches…also if you can bang a 3iron/hybrid where your playing partners are hitting driver…and hit W when they hit 7in, going to help scores especially on an off day…

    @markcrossfield I would love to compare this to you swinging at 90% and hitting every fairway. With your ball striking I bet it’s not much different.

    I still can’t get past the 2 iron. Why not a 2 hybrid at the same loft or a 5 wood?

  15. @theelmagoo

    A very interesting experiment, more of these please :).

    Also what are your driver numbers at the minute (AoA / Ball Speed / Launch Angle / Spin Rate / Dynamic Loft)? So the 2nd hole in this video where you got a 165 ball speed, and you said it went about 260… I'm guessing that's total? On the Trackman driver fitting chart that optimizes for carry, a 110 club speed with 163 ball speed hitting 5* up with 13.7* launch and 2435 spin should carry 279. Modify this for a 0 AoA and it should carry 266. Might be worth an experiment of really trying to hit up on it and see if you can get those knucklebomb drives!!! 🙂

    When you say some speed gained from fitness and some from “swing” do you mean technical change or speed training ?

    Great to see you playing on a lovely dry course while the rest of us are playing in the damp soggy weather here at home.
    Any chance of proper winter tips now like putting on damp greens. Also the effects of rain and cold on how the ball reacts. Cheers Mark 👍☔️🏌️‍♂️

    Dan Hendrickson did a similar video with his brother Paul about 5 years ago, but played from the red tee's to show where he needs to be for the approach shots. This is a better way of showing the game and speed that we all need.

    Mark, it's 3 years since you moved the needle way past 262. So what's been the score differential between the last 3 years compared to your 262 days?
