Golf GPS is a simple app. It tells distance to bunkers, water hazards, and pins. Many similar apps requires subscription (hopefully no additional cost) , or you need to build your own map ahead of time. While struggling with my terrible iron shot, I got an idea. When you play golf, you see red, white, blue yardage represents 100, 150 and 200 yards respectively from the pin. The idea was why don’t I reverse it on my iPhone screen. It draws a map around you, and put blue pin where you are. And draw red, white, blue circle around you. Since I can add circle easily, I add three more: 50, 250 & 300 yard. For those who are familiar with meter, I add an option for you. Those circle should be enough for most player while the app allows you to drop yardage wherever you want. Drop and drag it to a point you want, and it will tell exact distance from your location. Those yardages will be stored internally and will be displayed again until you delete it. *** You need internet connection to use this app *** Features - It works any courses as long as you have internet connection - Distance circles around your current location: 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300 - Support both yard and meter - 10-yard(meter) circles when you zoom in - Drop yardages wherever you want to know exact distance - Relocate yardages by drag & drop - App saves yardages for later play - Compass view (rotate map) to match the direction you are facing; easy to find green - Yardages in 3 different sizes - Support background mode for quick restart - More yardage circles when zoom closely for accuracy - Drop a marker (shot from) where you hit and calculate distance from it - Purchase option to remove ads and enable Marker History View, which allows you to review your mark (short from) history after a game ## Key features - Distance circles around current location - Custom yardage markers - Save and relocate yardages - Compass view - Background mode support - Drop shot markers ## Recent user reviews (3 of 3) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/golf-gps-ad-free/id399162000/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Golf gps *2021-08-09, version 1.98* Paid for this subscription, worst golf gps that I use. I go to the golf course which It can’t find, and on my watch if it doesn’t work do a force restart. ### 4/5 — Simply the best *2016-06-07, version 1.96* However, can't magnify the map in Korea. I don't care about fuzzy image from google map in Korea. Please, let us magnify map at least. It was my favorite gps map in us. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2011-10-12, version 1.5* Why are there no reviews for this one? This is easily the best I've found. Helped me shoot a 75 last week, ain't no lie. I also estimated it would take me 10 driver shots to reach the nearest course from my house. ## Frequently asked questions about Golf GPS ### Does Golf GPS have ads?
