### 4/5 — Wow

*2024-12-07, version 2.581*

Great game !!!!!

### 2/5 — Long time player

*2024-10-31*

One of my all time favorites games, but it crashes all the time on iOS 18 and is basically unplayable. I really hope they can fix it.

### 3/5 — Very good game

*2024-10-20*

I absolutely love this game, sadly the new iOS update has made it not as playable. Every time I play on hobo canyon I get booted out after the 2nd through 6th hole. Hopefully there is a patch or an update to the game soon.

### 3/5 — Crashes

*2024-09-24*

Absolutely loved this game untill, one day I accidentally deleted the game. I downloaded it back and restored my in-game purchases as well. After I did this I went to play the same course I played every time, August Lane Black Tees and 4th pins. I played hole one and then the game crashed. By crashed in meaning I finish the hole and the app just simply closed. I’m still giving it a 3 star rating because of how fun that it was before it began doing this. If anyone has some tips just try to let me know! Thanks.

Great game except the putting needs work and a little bit more clarity on distances for the holes. Use in a regular IPad and the Home Screen is vey small to read, and make selections on. Which more detail on other courses to purchase. How about a preview?

### 2/5 — Rip off

*2022-06-24, version 2.570*

I thought if you paid you would have the full game but instead you only get 4 courses and have to pay more for the rest. You also have to pay extra to custom your golfer, and to play on farther tee boxes. Why? Such a disappointing money grab for a decent game. Not worth the time.

### 2/5 — GL GOLF

*2021-12-29*

Just purchased course group 3....(Rattlesdnake, Morrosfiled, San Jacinto......) most of these are crap. In addition to being rediculous layouts, on many the V choice ( preview of shot) does not show what may happen, where the ball winds up, etc.
I repeat thiis review... these coures (except for 1 0r 2 ) are a biunch of crap... and I want my money back !

### 4/5 — Excellent game

*2021-11-19, version 2.570*

Very good game for golfers

### 4/5 — not bad and fun to play.

*2021-03-06*

I wish the developers would allow you to read the description of the courses before buying.  Not familiar with a lot of these courses. Also wish the would add a few more. One suggestion would be Highland Woods. It’s an Illinois Cook County Forest Preserve course that is really challenging.  In the same area is Arlington Lakes, an Arlington Heights, Illinois park district course that is a real challenge because of all the traps and water that comes into play on a relatively shorter course  with tight lies.

### 2/5 — Simple Fix

*2020-06-22*

Does anyone actually play this app... I do.  Can any one tell me why, the replay bottom is so close to the loft/punch.  You have the whole left side of the screen, yet everything is bunched up, like it makes a difference of what you can see on the course.  Instead, I’ll just keep waiting for the replay to finish, so I can keep playing(when game is done doing what it wants to do), because I inadvertently taped the ill placed replay button. Space them out already, pretend like you care.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2020-06-17, version 2.570*

Got a new XR and just tried to use the app and it doesn’t work anymore 😢😢

### 2/5 — GL Golf

*2019-11-20*

A very well designed app with very realistic golfing situations. BUT ! The putting part of most games is atrocious. Very unpredictable with many missed puts for no real reason. Almost impossible to gauge green nuances to make a good decision, or similar “problems “ that wouldn’t exists anyhow.
The designers need to redo the entire putting scene.
The putting scheme is stupid....when are you guys going to do something about this.....terrible, impossible !!!!

I repeat my complaint: the putting part of this app is totally insane.
I’m very close to junking this app, unless you correct this terrible part of the game.

### 3/5 — Good app but . . .

*2019-10-01*

I thoroughly enjoy the app and the course it offers. However, after I added all the courses that are available 5 of the courses scrolled to the bottom of the page and 4 of them are inoperable. Considering the fact you have to pay for adding courses I basically have wasted one of the additions.  This is the only issue I have

### 3/5 — Almost there

*2019-08-14*

Fairly realistic drives and fairway shots. The reason for only three stars is the horrible putting part of the program. Definitely not realistic to the point it actually ruins the game for you.  Headed towards a round of 62, but six putted on par three!  The ball would not drop in the hole, very unrealistic. Correct the putting issue and you’re looking at a possible five star rating.

### 4/5 — GL Golf

*2019-05-15, version 2.570*

Loads of realistic golf but game does frustrate when putting.

*2020-04-30*

Bought upgrade waste of money frustrating game many holes no direction greens tilt one way ball goes other so many issues I can't mention

### 5/5 — Love this game!

*2025-02-14*

I installed it back in 2013 and still play it weekly; it’s a great kill time game, graphics are low def with its charm. I hope there could be more courses though. Please release an update with improved graphics and additional courses. Thanks.
