Questions about switching
Can I bring my tee times from Lightspeed Golf?
Yes. Tee Times has its own import, which brings the tee times already booked onto the Calendar, and every tee time after that is booked on the same sheet the starter works.
What do members use instead of the Lightspeed Golf app?
With Navigator, members use the member portal in the browser: they book tee times at their plan's player type, book a bay or a court, spend their rain checks and read their House Account and statements. There is no golfer app of the club's own brand in the app stores.
How do visitors book on the club's website?
With Sites, the website books tee times on each course open online, by the player types a visitor may book as, under the course's cut-off and horizon, booked at once or asked for and paid in full or not, as Settings ▸ Reservations ▸ Website Booking sets it.
What happens to handicaps?
A golfer's handicap index is their own record in Calisto Active, and Golf reads it, so a field can be drawn by handicap. Feeds from GHIN or a national association (England Golf, Golf Australia, the DGV, Golf Canada) are Request Setup in Golf ▸ Channels, not yet live.
