Everything you need

Very good app. Everything you need to play and track your game. Course maps, actual and adjusted yardages, shot tracking…..all easy to use. Premium version is very reasonably priced. Customer service is top-notch, addressing any errors and issues quickly and accurately.

good

Great. Compare to others to see how great

I have been using this app for 3 years and I love showing all the features and how much I’m paying for mine vs. theirs. All of their features I have and mine are easier to read. Once it finds your distances it is very accurate. I am always pin high (just can’t get them straight to land the green). It takes a few rounds to really dial them in. I wish the dev would put a ball strike option on the app (like when I hit it fat or thin). Love the app and love how easy it is to work with.

Basic

I only have the basic at the moment which I use on my Apple Watch. I expected a little more than the front middle and back of the green yardages. I thought it would be more like the Garmin free basic information that gives hazards distances. That’s all I want, I don’t need pictures, but definitely don’t want to be tied in into a paid contract for that. On the first use I couldn’t move to the next hole on my watch but on the second use I could move through the holes, just a learning issue I guess.

Es la app de golf más sencilla que he visto. Ayuda mucho en la elección del palo y aporta muchos datos sobre los obstáculos de la calle.
Relación calidad precio superior.
