Everything You Need,
In One Room

What the club is, how to put it on your phone, how to use it, and the questions we are asked most. No password, no sign-in. Read it before you apply, or keep it open beside you on your first round.

I · The Club

Golf is a game of honor.
Membership here is earned.

Six Deep is a closed room. Ten thousand Founding seats, the foundation of the club, and then the door closes. A place at this table is not bought. It is earned. By reference. By record. By the way a player carries themselves on a course when no one is watching the card.

What we ask in return is simple: respect. For the game. For your scorecard. For the company you keep. We track the rounds that matter (birdies, eagles, aces, albatrosses) on the strength of every member's word, because no lesser system would be worthy of this room.

The Room

  1. Not just a scoring app
    Golf runs on an honor system with no referee and no camera. This room is a private register of the players whose word alone is good enough to trust with the card.
  2. One door
    No seat here is sold. Someone already inside has to vouch for you, and your record has to hold up under the Committee's read. There is no other door.
  3. Then it closes
    There is a last seat in this room, and then there is not another. When the Register closes, it does not reopen.

II · Install

Put It On Your Home Screen

Six Deep is not in an app store. It installs from your browser in about a minute, and from then on it opens like any other app: its own icon, full screen, and usable without signal once it has loaded. On iPhone, alerts only reach the installed app.

  1. 1
    Open it in Safari, then tap ···
    Go to app.sixdeep.golf and tap ··· at the bottom of the screen. On an older iPhone, tap the square with the arrow in the bar instead.
  2. 2
    Tap Share, then Add to Home Screen
    Scroll the list if you need to. Not there? Tap Edit Actions at the bottom and switch it on.
  3. 3
    Tap Add
    Top right. Keep the name Six Deep, and leave Open as Web App on if you see it.
  4. 4
    Open it from the icon
    Six Deep sits with your other apps. Open it from here from now on, not from Safari.
  5. 5
    Sign in once
    Your email or member number, then your PIN. The installed app keeps its own sign-in, so sign in there even if you already did in the browser.

Swipe across for all five steps.

★ Opened from Instagram or another app

Some apps open links in a browser of their own, where there is no Share button. Tap ··· or the compass icon to open the page in Safari, then start at step one.

  1. 1
    Open it in Chrome, then tap ⋮
    Go to app.sixdeep.golf. The menu is top right.
  2. 2
    Tap Install app
    On some phones it reads Add to Home screen. Either one works.
  3. 3
    Tap Install
    Six Deep lands on your home screen and in your app drawer.
  4. 4
    Open it and sign in once
    Your email or member number, then your PIN. The installed app keeps its own sign-in, so sign in there even if you already did in the browser.

Swipe across for all four steps.

★ Samsung Internet

Tap the menu, then Add page to, then Home screen.

On a computer, Chrome and Edge show an install icon at the right end of the address bar, and Safari on a Mac adds it from File, then Add to Dock. Rounds are logged on your phone.

III · Using It

Logging, Scoring, Your Card, The Feed

Logging a round

  1. Pick the course
    24,000+ courses are bundled in, and the map grows. If yours is missing, add it. Members earn credit for adding courses, scanning scorecards, and verifying details.
  2. Log as you play, or after
    Enter it hole by hole while you are out there, or scan the scorecard when you finish. A round in progress is kept for you if you close the app mid-round.
  3. Mark what mattered
    Birdies, eagles, aces and albatrosses are the events the club keeps. Everything else is round history.
  4. Save
    The round joins your card, updates your stats, and appears to the members who follow you.

The four events

These four, always. They are what the register is for.

🐦
Birdie
−1 · One under par
🦅
Eagle
−2 · Two under par
🎯
Ace
Hole in one
🦢
Albatross
−3 · Three under par

Your card

Your card is the running record of every sub-par event you have logged, the courses you have tamed, your streaks, and the achievement badges you have earned. It is lifetime, not seasonal. Your member number and tier badge sit beside your name everywhere in the club.

The feed

The feed is the room itself, and it rides with the Founding seat. It shows the rounds of the members you follow. Follow someone and their birdies, eagles, aces and albatrosses roll in as they log them. It is the part of the club that makes a Tuesday round worth telling someone about.

★ Your rounds follow you

Sign in with your PIN on any device and your card, rounds and badges come with you. The same PIN on a new phone is the same member, and there is nothing to transfer.

IV · FAQ

Questions We Are Asked

How do I sign in?

With your email address or your member number, plus a 4-digit PIN you choose the first time you open the app. On a phone that supports it, Face ID unlocks it after that.

What if I forget my PIN?

Email support@sixdeep.golf and we will reset it for you. There is no self-service reset today. It is a person on our end, on purpose, because the PIN is what proves a card is yours.

Do my rounds sync between my phone and my iPad?

Yes. Your PIN derives your identity, so the same PIN and email on a second device is the same member. Rounds, your card, achievements, what is in your bag and your linked handles all come across.

Sync needs you to be signed in. If you are using the app signed out, everything is held on that device until you sign in, and then it uploads.

What happens if I clear my browser data?

Anything already synced comes back when you sign in again. Sign in first, before you clear anything, if you have been playing signed out.

Does Six Deep post my scores to GHIN?

No. The USGA publishes no public score-posting interface, so Six Deep hands the round off rather than transmitting it: from Round Detail, Post to GHIN sets the round out in the order GHIN’s Post a Score asks for it (course, holes, tees, score type, date, then the scores) and opens GHIN, where you enter it and confirm. The post stays yours to complete.

Your index is yours to keep current, too. Save your GHIN number and the index your GHIN portal shows under Profile → Handicap & GHIN, and it displays everywhere your name does. Nothing logged in Six Deep reaches the USGA on its own. Every tier has it.

What does membership cost?

Player is $15 a month or $120 a year. Scratch is $25 a month or $240 a year and adds full scorecard mode and the bespoke capsules. Founding is annual only. The current cohort is $360 a year, locked for life at the rate you join at.

What is a cohort, and why does the price change?

Founding seats are released in cohorts. Cohort I is numbers 001 through 500 at $360 a year. When 500 is claimed, Cohort I closes and the rate steps up permanently for everyone after, but never for anyone already in. Your rate is fixed at the cohort you joined, for as long as you stay.

Can I join without applying?

Founding membership passes through the Committee. Player and Scratch tiers open to the public and do not need an application.

When can I actually pay and join?

Founding is by application, and applications are open now. Each file passes through the Committee, and an approval carries the invitation to complete membership. The Founding rate is never sold through a public checkout. That is what application-only means.

Player and Scratch are live. Dues are monthly or annual at the rates above, and checkout opens from inside the app once you are signed in: Profile → Compare Tiers. Both tiers open to the public now.

Is there a free trial?

No. There is no free tier and no free trial. Membership is the product.

Is there an iPhone app in the App Store?

No, by choice. Six Deep is a web app you add to your home screen. See the Install section above. It behaves like any other app once it is there, and it means we answer to our members rather than to a review queue.
