Disc Rescue Network
Lost-and-found software that courses use to log found discs, notify owners by text, and run claims and pickups from one dashboard.
Apps & Software
Disc Defender
A lost-and-found database for disc golf shops and clubs that texts a player automatically when their disc is logged as found.
What to know
Disc Defender is built for whoever runs the shelf rather than for the player. Adding a disc sends its owner an SMS straight away, and the record is then marked returned when it is collected, or pulled once a grace period expires. Anything still sitting past that window is highlighted so it can be cleared back onto the course, and discs marked returned or sold are archived nightly to keep the working list short.
More detail
One full-text search covers name, disc, PDGA number, phone, and colour together. Phone numbers are visible only to administrators, which keeps them away from scrapers. Accounts are free to create, and a demo of the interface is linked from the homepage without signing up.
