Upcoming Features

So we're working hard on getting some new features up and running here at GolfStakes.com. First we're looking at opening up all of the course information for users to edit. Currently we have a database with over 17,000 golf courses, but we would like to have our users to be able to edit and add  new courses. This was a problem because we didn't have a way to do this with the new course information. Well now we're developing pages that will allow a user to not only add a new course to our database, but to edit and change our existing data.

Second we're looking to make some more changes to the golf statistics section. Some people have mentioned that they would like to have total count of the number of holes played, along with a percentage of each type of score (par, birdie, bogey, etc).

Third we're looking to add in some Flash animations on the front page to make the home page a little more attractive and interesting when you first visit the site. Let us know what you think of this idea.

Last we're looking at adding a golf bet glossary. Seems like with the number of bets we have, a lot of people just don't know what the bet is, or don't know how to play a round while using the side game. We're looking at having a series of articles explain each bet in some detail and how to GolfStakes.com to score these bets.

That's it for now, look for the updates in the near future.
