The Side Game App

The problem
18 holes. Three side games running at once. Skins carrying over from hole 7. Wolf with a lone wolf on 12. Someone pressing the Banker on 15.
By the time you finish, nobody agrees on who owes what.
SideAction Saloon fixes that.
The games
Skins
Low score wins. Ties carry over. The classic — and the reason everyone argues on hole 18.
DOTS
Every good shot earns a point. Fairways, greens, one-putts, birdies. All of it tracked, all of it counted.
Wolf
Pick your partner after the tee shots. Or go alone and double the money. Every hole is a decision.
Wolf Scotch
Eight points per hole across four categories. Win them all and trigger a BLITZ — points double.
Banker
The hole winner becomes the bank. Everyone bets against them. Press before the tee shot. Watch them sweat.
Bingo Bango Bongo
Three ways to win every hole: first on the green, closest to the pin, first in the hole. Long hitters have no advantage.
Nines
Built for threesomes. Five points for first, three for second, one for third. The cleanest math in golf.
Hammer
Golf meets Texas Hold'em. Hammer to double the pot after any shot. Fold to cut your losses. Or match and stay alive.
Landmines
Acey Deucey with hazard penalties. Hit water, sand, or a tree — the Rattler strikes. Every shot tracked.
Greenies
Par 3s only. Hit the green off the tee and make par or better. Stick it tight, take the cash.
Sandies
Up and down from the bunker for par or better. The save your buddies never see coming.
Closest to the Pin
Every par 3 is a showdown. Closest tee shot collects from the whole group.
Chaos Card
Surprise cards on random holes — stake multipliers, skill challenges, and rule twists. A quiet round, gone loud.
Group & tournament formats
Running a bigger game? SideAction Saloon handles full group formats alongside your side games — one leaderboard, one settlement.
Net Stroke Play
Lowest total net score wins. Handicaps applied automatically. Clean, classic competition for any size group.
Stableford
Points-based scoring — eagle, birdie, par, bogey each worth different points. More forgiving than stroke play, more exciting to follow.
Match Play
Hole-by-hole head-to-head competition with team assignments. Every hole is its own battle.
