### 5/5 — best golf app out there!

*2023-03-11*

I have tried out so many different golf apps and just haven’t loved them. Although, this app has EXCEEDED my expectations!! It has a dispersion range, which is a feature that I haven’t seen in any other app. It is super accurate and this has made my overall golf experience 100% better. I recommend this to everyone who wants to improve their golf experience.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the great review! We love that the dispersion rings have improved your game with enhanced course strategy. We have just released a major new version that includes a Scorecard. Also, look out for future enhancements from our product roadmap. The major one we are looking forward to releasing will be accuracy statistics on your shot dispersion for each club.
