“Thanks for a great Member-Guest weekend, using your software really enhanced our event. It's great to know when we needed the support someone was there to answer. Your program is a must for the Club's that facilitate pari-mutuels. Thanks again for making us look good! We'll definitely use pm4golf for our next event.”

Rich Parker, Head Golf Professional, Benvenue Country Club, Rocky Mount, NC.

“I have recently had the pleasure of utilizing the pm4golf system. My club wanted to do something to step up our member/member golf tournament. Through sheer luck, I stumbled upon this system. I truly, must say it was luck... because finding this was the best thing that could have happened to our drab golf tournament. It was fun, easy to use, and without a doubt the highlight of our golf tournament. There is no doubt that we will continue to use this program for every major tournament that we have at my golf club. The program was the highlight of the weekend! The site of watching 100 golfers stare at a screen to check the odds on their own team to win/place/show was worth every dollar! And speaking of dollars, the program pays for itself!

The developers were energetic, and knowledgeable! Most importantly, they were there for anything questions we needed. To say I was impressed would be an understatement! I look forward to using the program for our member/guest. If you are reading this and have not already purchased the system --- you are crazy!”

Shaun Kent, Member, RiverTowne Country Club, Mount Pleasant, SC.

“This put the event over the top, just that little extra that helped make the tournament memorable for both my members and their guests. Generating payouts seemed instantaneous, all winning tickets were paid off within 20 minutes of tournament completion! This is a especially user friendly application that we'll use for multiple tournaments in the coming years.”

Chris Bond, General Manager, Weekapaug Golf Club, Westerly, RI.

“This system pays for itself. Using the House Percent feature allowed us to handsomely tip our deserving club employees after all winners were paid off. All because of the reporting your system provides. I highly recommend Pari-Mutuel 4 Golf. It's easy to use and made a huge contribution to the fun we all had. We'll definitely use it again!”

Ed Vahey, Member, Wellesley Country Club, Wellesley, MA.

Who We Are

This system was built and is marketed by 2 former caddies who worked at Needham Golf Club and Wellesley Country Club in eastern Massachusetts during the 1960’s and early 1970’s. Towards the end of our caddying days we were both honored to have received Francis Ouimet Scholarships. Needless to say, these funds were very instrumental in paying tuition towards 4 years of college education...

After college, we began playing in various member guest tournaments throughout Massachusetts and noticed that the pari–mutuel wagering systems used in these events were complex, sometimes inaccurate, and very time consuming. So in 1988 we built our own system and for the past 20 odds years have used it for tournament wagering at the Adams Bowl Member Guest Golf Tournament held each year at Wellesley Country Club. During these years so many guests have inquired about using our system to boost inner club wagering at their tournaments, we decided to make it available on the internet.

Our Mission

  • Provide and maintain an accurate, efficient, reliable and user friendly pari–mutuel system to enhance inner club wagering for any golf event at your club.
  • Donate 10% of all profits generated by this system to The Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund .

Our belief is that this system will increase participant enjoyment and exceed all pari–mutuel wagering needs for any golf event. We anticipant Pari–Mutuel 4 Golf becoming a traditional ingredient of future tournaments at your club.
