I enjoy using Journal 18 to prep for a round, log my shots, and review results. It helps me stay accountable out on the course while I work on my game. Fantastic product that I highly recommend to those looking to lower their score.

I like the journal, still yet to utilize a few of the other pages but like it. I do wish it were directly into an app so I don’t have to deal with my one criticism which is that the erase ability isn’t great. I tried the eraser and damp paper towel to reuse the pages but doesn’t work that great so will just end up ordering refill pages.
Since I have been using the pro my game has gotten a lot better!! It has made me think about my game and slowed it down just enough to shave off about 5-10 strokes so far in month half roughly of using!! I enjoy it and can’t wait to see where else it takes my game
I love it! The only thing is that the booklet is a bit thic
I love using the journal pre, during and post round, really lets me think about my plan and I find it a great way to get rid of a bad shot of hole from my mind so that I can move onto the next one. The customer service from Journal18 was amazing, there was a slight issue with my first track pad pro so they sent another straight away! My only tip for improvement would be to add elastic so that it saves the page you are on to get back to quickly on the course, I use a scorecard to do this but it could be easier. Also it is hard to use when it is raining but ideally I do not play in the rain!
As someone who struggles with some mental aspects of he game esp in tournaments I find the vault great!! I am detail oriented and being able to document my rounds to do same or avoid the bad is absolutely amazing
Loved using this on the course the other day. Great quality. Two small issues. 1. The pen and holder are awkward to get in and out of my pocket. 2. Finding your current page for the round gets tedious. Would love a small holder in the fold of the book for a golf pencil (like the pros) and an elastic for marking your current round. I added both and it’s much better - see photo
Great Journal. Could use with more rounds in it rather than practice!
Great journal
The custom text allowed me to add a short mantra to the Journal for when on course. I only have to look at it and it helps to refocus after a bad shot or in setting up for the next one. Love my Track Pad Pro!
Having received the Track Pad Pro as a Christmas Present, I have loved using it on course. I feel that I am more accountable to myself for my game and logging shots on the maps aids with this. The pre and post round sheets are great to plan and reflect on the game. I have been playing better with this in my bag!
Recently received and looking forward to using my Performance Journal. I’ve journaled my rounds this past year using only DIY templates and already appreciate how valuable shot tracking is for me. I’ve also began walking most of my rounds as of late, and also realize how walking and journaling my round improves awareness. Only 3 years into this, I’m starting to become more focused on recognizing patterns in my game, and improving real-time. Since journaling, it has already helped me enjoy my rounds more and to trust my swing. The Performance Journal already feels great and looks like an easy, organized way to record each shot in one place for post round reflection. Bad shots will happen—but accountability and progress & continued enjoyment seem inevitable. Hit ’em straight. ⛳️
Whilst it took a long time to arrive. I am in Australia. It was worth the wait. Use it all the time and yes because I now track my golf I am going to say it has improved overall.
A beautiful high quality product. My pro has urged me to maintain a journal to improve. This helps organize shot information from the round as well pre round planning and post round or lesson thought organization. Sized perfectly to fit in your rear pocket if walking (similar to a yardage book) or glove pocket of your bag. I love the personalization that makes it my own. It is an invaluable tool if you're serious about getting better.
Fantastic quality, in fact the quality can not be improved upon. I would really like to use it more for planing in a round. I would like to buy refill pages that have each hole that I could refer to pre filled notes, eg remember to aim further left off the first tee, or remember Jounal 18 stats show that laying up on this hole gets a par/birdie more often, don’t go long on this hole. Etc. It’s great having the notes from the round but you need to be able to use that information productively. A blank 18 hole is similar to the scorecard that’s included but focused on a game plan instead would be perfect. I am trying to adapt what is included to do this.
I cannot believe the improvement in my game since using the Journal 18. I used it for 4 weeks when I first bought it and having a focus on what I COULD control during a round (pre shot routine, acceptance after each shot etc.) had a massive impact not only in my enjoyment but also my results. Put it down for few weeks and my scores went up! I recommitted to filling it out before AND after & I have just won two of the biggest comps at our club and Journal 18 must have been a factor! Many thanks guys!
In all honesty, this journal might be the best improvement to my golf set-up I’ve made this year. I used it yesterday for the first time and played my best round of the season. The key element of the product is its ability to keep you engaged from the pre-round planning process, through each shot, and finishing with a beer and self-reflection afterwards. The lite version couples nicely with a scorecard (where I keep, score, FIR, GIR, putts) and you have all the data you need in your back pocket. I absolutely recommend Journal18. :)
Need more space for notes next to each hole
The actual divot does not match the picture on the website. However, it’s smaller and a better size for my pocket.
Love the Control of results and the Focus of success
It’s handy. I benefit the most from being able look back at my tendencies afterward.
It’s amazing!
I can see that the J18 is going to be of great value…even if it is just to be clear about things I need to work on from week to week…the only thing that has been a little dissatisfying is the rubber grip on the pen tends to catch on the elastic hoop when pulling out or putting back in…all in all super piece of equipment
It looks tidy and good size for my pocket. Yet to give it a turn but some guidance on what to put into the columns to enhance usage would be great.
Looks very nice and can’t wait to use it. Will definitely improve my game
Great to help with planning and keeping progress of how I am playing
Excellent quality product that offers everything you need- highly recommend
Great tool and visual aid. Love the planning aspect of each round and ability to detail info that happened during the round. Great quality and fits perfect in my back pocket
I bought it as a Christmas present for my dad and I was so amazed with the quality! It looks and feels great and the customisation on the front is stunning! It also arrived very quickly with a few extra little goodies that just made it so much more exciting to open!
Great gift!
⛳️🎉
It would be nice to have somewhere to record you last round and you current round so you can see if your better or worse on that hole , but I love it also love the golf log book pitty both could not have those good bits . Great book will be ordering another before I finish this one . Love it
It really helps me stay focused on what I wanna accomplish for the round and serves to keep me on track hole after hole.
Really helps me lock in what I’d like to focus on while keeping me from being distracted mid-round. It’s perfect!
Really love tracking my shots and having yardages. Making progress in my game is easier when I can actually reflect on shots that I’ve tracked!
Great tool for, thru and after the round!
Have used the journal for 8 rounds now and love the process. All of my friends use tracker apps but I hate having to pull my phone out for every shot, not to mention I get enough screen time off track. I take 20 minutes per round to enter my goals, course details and yardages, then just concentrate on each shot. I then log scores and ball landings between each hole and do a 10 minute analysis of the round at home on the patio with a cold beer. Tracking shot location, especially on tracks I’ve played multiple times, has really helped improve my aim and club selection. Highly recommend Journal 18 to anyone that wants a phone free round!
It’s the perfect size for pockets, it helps a lot with keeping a track of things, pre round review helps right down eveything in mind before a round and just pick out the focus for the round, the after round review lets me see if I’ve done what I wanted to focus on or if there’s something not going right and I could practice it next time. Overall it helps my game a lot
I got the Journal18 to help me to play better golf by journaling my rounds and to keep track of things that went well and things that I need to do for improvement. This is a great thing that has already helped me to play better golf!
Early review as only taken it out for one round, but found the process of writing down something after each shot into the journal is really helpful in letting the bad shots go and staying present. Really impressed.
