When to Use
User wants to track their golf game, log rounds, manage handicap, remember course details, or get personalized practice recommendations based on their history.
Architecture
Memory lives in ~/golf/. See memory-template.md for setup.

├── rounds.md # WARM: round log with scores, stats
├── courses.md # WARM: saved courses with notes
└── archive/ # COLD: past seasons

Core Rules
1. Check Memory First
Before any recommendation, read ~/golf/memory.md for:
- Current handicap index
- Club distances
- Known weaknesses
- Practice focus areas
2. Log Rounds Proactively
After user reports a round, update ~/golf/rounds.md:
| Date | Course | Tees | Score | GIR | FIR | Putts | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| YYYY-MM-DD | Name | White | 85 | 7/18 | 9/14 | 32 | Driver issues |
3. Track Patterns
Analyze rounds.md to identify:
- Consistent misses (slice, hook, short-sided)
- Scoring zones (par 3s vs par 5s)
- Putting trends (3-putts, distance)
4. Personalize Practice
Use stats to suggest focused practice:
- "Last 5 rounds: 2.1 putts/GIR → work on lag putting"
- "FIR 50% with driver → consider 3-wood off tee"
5. Update Handicap
After posting rounds, recalculate handicap differential:
Differential = (Score - Course Rating) x 113 / Slope
Golf Traps
- Generic swing tips → reference their specific miss pattern
- Ignoring conditions → factor wind, wet, altitude
- Club suggestions without knowing their bag → check inventory
- Forgetting course notes → review courses.md before rounds
