What Are Course Filters?

Course filters let you pinpoint courses that match your needs—whether you're planning a quick 9-hole outing or seeking the most active, up-to-date layout in town. Once set, your filters apply both in the Course Search list and on the Map until you reset them or restart the app.

How to Access Filters

Filters are found on:

  • On the Map (2nd tab): Tap the Filter icon at the top-left.

  • In Course Search: Tap the Filter icon at the top-right.

Applying Filters

  1. Tap the Filter icon to open the Filter panel.

  2. Choose the filters you want (see options below).

  3. Tap Apply filters.

  4. Your selection will now filter all courses in search and on the map.

Tip: The filter button indicates when any filter is active and filter conditions are listed both in course search and map.

Resetting Filters

  1. Open the Filter panel.

  2. Tap Reset to clear all selections.

  3. Tap Apply filters to confirm.

  4. All courses will reappear in both search and map views.

Available Filters

Course Length

Choose exactly one of the following:

  • ≤ 9 - 9 holes or less

  • < 18 - Under 18 holes

  • = 18 - Exactly 18 holes

  • ≥ 18 - At least 18 holes

Use this when you want a quick round or a full-length championship course. Length filters are free and available for every user.

Course Activity

Activity filters help you to make sure you don't travel in vain. So you can avoid unmaintained jungles and seasonal layouts.

  • Active: Played recently, regularly updated, and well-maintained, including favorite courses below

  • Favorite: Strictly frequently played and guaranteed to be up to date

Activity filters help you find courses where tees, baskets, and signage are most likely in top shape. This filter is exclusive to Upsi Black subscribers.

Playing Speed

Playing speed filters let you find a perfect course for a quick morning round before work or let you prepare for that long, dragging round and possibly some queuing.

  • Fast: Course is quick to play. Shouldn't take that long to throw a round here

  • Normal: Course is not fast or slow. Something in between

  • Slow: Course is slow to play. Prepare for the round to take a while

This filter is exclusive to Upsi Black subscribers.

Virtual Course Map

The virtual course map filter shows only courses that have a virtual course map available. Tap Yes to enable this filter. Virtual course map means that Upsi Black users also have distance to tee enabled and everyone can use the next tee guidance. Makes the experience on an unknown course better! This filter is exclusive to Upsi Black subscribers.

Difficulty Level Defined

The difficulty level filter shows only courses that have an established difficulty rating. Tap Yes to enable this filter. It's ideal for Upsi Black subscribers who want to play handicap rounds or have rounds counting toward their Upsi Rating. When enabled, both Course Search and the Map will display only layouts where a difficulty value has been calculated from our years of round-data history. This filter is exclusive to Upsi Black subscribers.

Limit To Played Or Unplayed

This filter has two options, each with their own use cases:

  • Played: Show only courses that you have played. This can be used to visualise all of your played courses on the world map

  • Never played: Show only courses that you have never played. Helps you plan your disc golf trips to new courses near and far.

This filter is exclusive to Upsi Black subscribers.

Why Use Filters?

  • Save Time: Instantly find courses that match your needs.

  • Plan Better: Tailor your trip to a quick warm-up or a full tournament-style layout.

  • Stay Current: Know you're heading to a course that's actively used and maintained.
