Welcome to Hubble.GOLF: Your Digital Home for Competitive Golf

The alarm goes off at 5 AM. You’re scrolling through three different websites trying to find tournaments that fit your schedule. Your notebook is filled with scribbled hotel rates, and you’re not even sure if you’ve registered for that event next month. Sound familiar?

If you’re a competitive golfer, parent, or coach, you know the drill. Managing a tournament season shouldn’t feel like running a small business, but somehow it does.

Today, that changes.

Introducing Hubble.GOLF: The Complete Golf Tournament Platform

We built Hubble because we lived this frustration ourselves. What started as a simple question – “Why isn’t there a single place to manage everything golf-related?” – became a two-year journey to create the golf tournament platform you’re experiencing today.

Hubble.GOLF isn’t just another golf app. It’s the digital home for competitive golf, designed specifically for the unique challenges that players, parents, and coaches face during tournament season. Whether you’re managing junior golf schedules, planning amateur competitions, or coordinating team events, our platform brings everything together in one seamless experience.

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

Getting “up-and-down” from just off the green is one of the keys to good scoring and reducing your handicap. In the third Paddy’s Golf Tips video of a new series about how you can teach yourself, I discuss how to play a standard chip shot with the help of a simple practise aid. In addition, I provide guidelines on how to assess where to land the ball on the green with different clubs, as well as tips on how you can use the contours of the green to give yourself room for error.

    Thanks Padraig, my chippings been off lately, I'll try this drill. I play sand greens, so I'll have to adjust for distance and roll out accordingly.

    Unrelated question but, you've changed putter. Maybe a video about thoughts/reasoning behind club changes. Particularly the flat stick, where technology is rarely the reason for a change.

    The videos are amazing and very helpful. How about a video on how to structure your practice especially for the short game. Don't want to be pushing it, but a practice structure for the long game would be great too. Thanks for help

    Paddy you mentioned you dont like the toe up in the air, what about standing closer getting the shaft more vertical and getting the heel slightly up?

  15. @proinnsiasbreathnach6656

    As a high-handicap member of the ploughing championships .. I'm in need of all the tips & tricks you'd care to share 🙂
    Especially the mid-game stuff .. I'm not terrible once I get within 100m, but that bit between the 200m drive and the 100m from the green tends to cost me dearly for some reason.

    I’m a huge toe down chipper and it’s made my short game super formidable, I use pretty much the same setup you describe but just closer to the ball with the heel slightly up. I even cycle through the clubs the same way as you do. One thing about the toe down is it’s much harder to hit it “fat” so for amateurs or people with chipping yips I think it’s pretty good

    Reply
  17. @Roberto-bd9fq

    I never really liked toe up, as mostly for flat shots I just a chipper. Only if I need loft do I go to a wedge.

    Reply
  18. @vicpnut1

    Never heard anything about toe up chipping..in full swing yeah but always hear opposite for chipping (if not flat) toe down and rotate through without a lot of arms ..really like that alignment stick as a deterrent to fatting it.👍🏼✌️i always forget the distances for ea club(PW 50/50 etc)

    Your initiative is tremendously helpful & insightful, please keep it going. You’ve broached the subject in past episodes, but please can you do an episode on speed training & techniques thanks in advance.

  21. @AustinPatterson-d6e

    What about chipping when you are just off the green and can not take a comfortable long backswing? Also, do you have any tips for starting to get to steep and digging with 1/2 and 3/4 pitch shots? As I try to keep everything left and miss the alignment rod I find my divots are getting deeper but I recall you mentioning you do not want deep divots. lastly with chipping and pitching is the swing path naturally more to left or should you aim for a square swing path?

    Great stuff. Short and simple and great knowledge sharing on where to land which nobody seems to talk about.

  24. @anthonytran9643

    So I noticed I do have my weight forward. It's that lean back and up that is killing me with the chunks. Is my thinking correct is feeling of just rotating around with my chest. Rather than feeling this side to side to avoid the chunk.

    Reply
  25. @GregCrocker-z1f

    Good practice tip especially with the alignment stick. I’m reluctant to use irons vs wedges for chipping because as an older golfer I use graphite shafts in my irons but regular wedge weight steel for my wedges. I like the control of wedges with steel shafts. If I had steel in my irons I would definitely use irons for low running pitches. Sounds like an excuse but even with quality graphite iron shafts they are still lighter than the steel in my wedges.

  26. @decentblue1

    Hi Paddy, guess transition from back swing to down swing is the most difficult to master , while weight shift goes before anything in the down swing, but it's hard to learn and hard to understand how to do, please teach us how to practice the weight shift , feel wise and movement wise, thank you very much !

  27. @JohnGalvin-mm6ke

    Thanks Padraig great advice as always. Would like some more short game advice please, chipping from different lies, short pitch shots from say 75 yards in 🏌️‍♂️always a struggle!

    Reply
  28. @halmstadt

    This is just incredible content, so well delivered and all for free. It’s also easy to understand, no jargon or technical stuff. Just need to brush up on my math. Excellent Padraig, thank you so much. Not sure if you’ve already covered it, but a video on how to warm up for a medal round would be interesting. Perhaps some tips if you have a lot of time before the tee time and if you only arrive 10 minutes before…thank you.
