As 2025 comes to an end, it’s the perfect time to do what golfers love almost as much as playing – looking back and talking about their golf. Where did you play this year? Which venues stood out? And just how many Top 100 courses can you honestly claim you’ve experienced?
The good news is you don’t need to rely on memory, half-finished scorecards, or that blurry camera roll of 18th green selfies. Golfshake gives you two simple ways to track your season properly and build a bucket list that’ll have you planning tee times ready for the forthcoming season.
Where Did You Play in 2025?
If you’ve played a familiar rota of home courses, a handful of society days, and the odd golf trip thrown in, it’s easy for the year to blur into one long “I think I played there…”. That’s exactly where Where I Play Golf comes in.
The whereiplay.golf companion service lets you store:
every course you’ve played, every course you want to play (your digital bucket list), and even a world map showing where you’ve been and where you’re dreaming of going next.
It’s built for reflection but also for motivation. You can categorise courses, rank favourites, and build your own personal “best of” list, which is ideal when you’re trying to remember what was brilliant… and what was just “fine, but the bacon roll saved it.”
If you’re already a Golfshake member, you can log in and transfer rounds you’ve tracked via the Golfshake Score Tracker into whereiplay.golf through the settings so your 2025 record can be pulled together quickly. Non-members can create an account and start fresh.
How Many Top 100 Courses Have You Played?
This is where it gets properly fun.
Both whereiplay.golf and the new Golfshake App help you answer that classic question – How many Top 100s have I actually played?
You can explore custom course lists (think iconic themes like major venues) and see how many courses you’ve played on any list. It also supports lists such as Open venues and Ryder Cup venues.
And in the latest Golfshake App updates, that idea has been pushed even further with the app now letting golfers quickly view lists like Ryder Cup venues and Top 100 courses, then add them straight into either:
your Played list, or your Bucket List for the future. Golfshake.com
So instead of vaguely saying “I’ve played a few good ones…”, you can finish 2025 with an actual number and start 2026 with a target.
Two Simple Ways to Track It All
You’ve got options, depending on how you like to organise your golf life:
1) whereiplay.golf (the dedicated tracker + bucket list)
A clean, purpose-built way to log courses played and courses you want to play, view maps, compare lists, and track progress through curated course lists.

2) The new Golfshake App (track rounds + plan future golf in one place)
The app brings the wider Golfshake experience into one hub including score tracking, handicap tools, stats, course discovery, reviews, travel content, and your digital bucket list. It also includes access to curated lists like Top 100 venues and must-play courses, making it easy to plan your next trip.

One of the smartest parts of the latest app refresh is how it turns tracking into something you’ll actually want to keep doing.
The October 2025 update introduced a refreshed design plus new awards and badges, ranging from simple milestones to proper challenges including things like playing in multiple countries and birdie streaks.
It also brought a cleaner, more standardised in-round scoring experience, making it easier to follow hole-by-hole performance, totals, and points, which is exactly what you want when you’re trying to make sense of your season, not just survive it.
If you do one thing before the year ends, make it this: turn your season into a record.
Log the courses you played. Count your Top 100s. Add the ones you’re desperate to experience. And when 2026 arrives, you won’t just be hoping to play more golf you’ll already know exactly where you want to do it.
