Method

Four steps to turn the course into a reference book — precise, readable, and true to your club.

Method

From the course to the book, in four steps.

A controlled process to deliver precise books, consistent from hole to hole, and tailored to your club’s identity — without technical burden on your side.

01

Analysis

Reading the course, hazards and lines of play — with the club’s insight to match the land.

02

Data

Organising distances and landmarks into a reliable base, ready to update when the course evolves.

03

Production

Clear, consistent layouts from hole to hole, with your club’s visual identity.

04

Print

Eco-friendly paper, premium finishes, delivery to your pro shop or club.

01 — Analysis

Understand the course before drawing it

Every book starts with a careful reading of the land. We look at hole layouts, hazards, natural lines of play and the distances that actually matter to the player.

The goal is not to pile up measurements for their own sake, but to identify what helps build a strategy: where to play, where to avoid, where to aim. This step lays the foundation for a book that is useful on the course — not just aesthetic.

We also talk with the club. You know your course better than anyone — sensitive bunkers, risk areas, demanding greens. Your feedback sharpens our reading and ensures the book matches the reality of the land.

02 — Data

A reliable base, ready to evolve

Once the course is analysed, we structure the information into a clear, consistent base. Distances, playing elements, cartographic landmarks: everything is organised to support book production.

This organisation has a concrete benefit for the club. When the course evolves — a new bunker, a renovated green, a redrawn fairway — the base can be updated without starting over. The book remains a living tool, not a frozen document.

For the player, that means reliable, consistent information from hole to hole. The same logic, the same landmarks, the same standard of care across the entire course.

03 — Production

Drawn to be read at a glance

Production turns data into clear, hierarchical hole pages. Every element has its place: distances, hazards, lines of play, green. The player must be able to read the page quickly — on the tee or in the middle of the fairway.

We maintain strong consistency from hole to hole. A player discovering your course should find the same landmarks and the same logic of use across all eighteen holes. That is what makes a book a true standard — not a collection of isolated pages.

This shared structure still leaves room for the club’s identity. Cover, logo, partner mentions: the book remains yours, while being immediately recognisable as a Yardage book.

04 — Print

An object worthy of your pro shop

The book is printed on eco-friendly paper, with finishes designed for course use and for presentation in the shop. It should feel good in the hand, hold up in the bag, and match the image you want to convey.

We handle printing and delivery to your club or pro shop. You do not need to coordinate a printer, formats or timelines: production is part of the method.

Result: a premium product, ready to offer to your members, visitors and competitors — with no technical burden on your side.

What a hole page contains

A Yardage page is built for decisions. It gathers the essential information without overwhelming the reader:

  • useful distances to shape the shot;
  • hazards and areas to anticipate;
  • lines of play and course landmarks;
  • green representation to prepare the approach and putting.

Each hole is produced from course data for immediate reading on the ground. And because the base can be updated, the book can evolve with your club.

A shared standard, an identity unique to each club

Our method aims for a simple balance: a shared professional structure, and respect for the singularity of each course.

A player moving from one Yardage club to another should find the same landmarks and the same reading logic. That familiarity speeds up uptake and builds confidence during the round.

At the same time, each club keeps its history, architecture and image. The book is recognisable as a Yardage product — and as the official book of your club.
