Step 1 of 5

Choose Wolf

Select Wolf from the game picker for the ultimate risk-reward golf game. Wolf works with 3 to 5 players.

You can add Wolf alongside other bets like Skins or Stroke Play — the app tracks them all simultaneously.

Step 2 of 5

Set Your Stakes

Choose your wager per point. Points are won or lost each hole based on whether the wolf's team wins.

Pick between Net or Gross scoring. Net uses course handicaps to level the field for mixed-ability groups.

Tip: A $5 per point Wolf game can swing big fast. Going lone wolf doubles the points — high risk, high reward.

Step 3 of 5

Score Each Hole

Enter scores as you play. The wolf rotates each hole — every player gets equal turns as the wolf throughout the round.

After watching each player tee off, the wolf decides: pick a partner or go it alone. The app records every choice.

Step 4 of 5

Track Points

Bets View shows point totals, wolf picks, and running standings for every player after each hole.

See each hole's result — who was wolf, who they picked (or if they went lone), and the points won or lost. No more arguments over the math.

Lone Wolf: Going alone means 2x points. Win the hole and collect from everyone. Lose it and you pay double to everyone.

Step 5 of 5

Settle Up

Final payouts based on net points. The app calculates who owes who across all 18 holes and nets everything down to the fewest payments.

Tap a payment row to send the amount straight to Venmo — no retyping dollar amounts or tallying up hole-by-hole results.

The Best Wolf Golf Betting App

Wolf is a rotating-partner golf betting game for 3 to 5 players. Each hole, a different player is the "wolf" — they watch the others tee off, then pick a partner for that hole or go lone wolf for double the stakes. Settle Up Golf runs the entire Wolf game in the background so you can focus on playing.

The app supports wager per point, automatic wolf rotation, lone wolf calls, optional blind wolf (declared before any tee shot), and Net or Gross scoring with course handicaps applied. Every partner pick and point swing is logged in Bets View, hole by hole.

Wolf stacks well with Skins or a Nassau for more action across the round. Need the full rules and scoring breakdown? Read the Wolf game rules guide. New to the app? Start with the round setup guide.
