## What is Backtrack Golf?

Track your play. 

There are many GPS golf apps that help you when you are on the course. Backtrack golf is different. It is your virtual companion, logging where you went and when you stopped to hit a ball. When you stop, do your pre-shot routine and hit, it marks the spot and shows you the distance from the last marked position. You will have a visual view of how you played the course. You can instantly see any tendencies you might have and you can check your real distances.

Since Backtrack Golf relies on you stopping and doing a pre-shot routine, it works best for walkers. If you are serious about your golf and you walk, you will love this app.

Live Round allows you to see where another golfer is on the course from your own phone! No need to guess where they are. Marked positions allow you to see where they were. Now you can find them and meet them at the 9th hole like you planned without having to guess.

Features:

It's like a visual scorecard!

With Apple Watch, you can add comments to markers and more.
