Noonan Caddie is a golf app that turns launch‑monitor and simulator data into real‑time club and aim recommendations. By analyzing a player’s shot dispersion, the software predicts where 95 % of shots will land and suggests the optimal target to maximize fairway and green hit rates, effectively expanding the margin for error without changing the swing.

Problem
Golfers often miss fairways and greens because they aim for ideal targets without accounting for the natural dispersion of their shots, leading to repeated misses and higher scores. Traditional course management relies on intuition rather than data, making it difficult to plan shots that maximize the probability of success.
Solution
Noonan Caddie processes launch‑monitor and simulator data to model a player’s shot dispersion and predict where 95 % of their balls will land with each club. The app then identifies the optimal aim point that aligns with the highest probability of hitting the desired target, such as a fairway or green, while avoiding hazards. Recommendations are delivered in real time on a mobile device, allowing golfers to adjust club selection and aim without changing their swing. By focusing on the average shot rather than the outlier best shot, the tool expands the margin for error and improves overall scoring efficiency.
Target Audience
Primary users are amateur and professional golfers who use launch‑monitor or simulator data to refine their game, as well as coaches and teaching professionals seeking data‑driven course‑management tools.
