Awful

The app never actually works when you need it to. Horrible to navigate, horrible user experience, horrible design, horrible reliability, horrible search feature, AWFUL APP for as much resources are used for the rules of golf. SHAMEFUL

Clean and Intuitive

Easy to use right out of the box. Short tutorial followed by a 5 question quiz to determine your level of knowledge to give you the best experience. Great app!

Not updating!!

The app closes … says error, retry! When you open , it says updating rules… then says error, retry. It has been like this for a week! (Today is 11/4/24). I would delete and reload the app .. but I don’t want to pay for it twice!!!

Working Again

The most recent reviews talk about the app not working. I had the same experience for a while, so I deleted the app a few weeks ago.

I downloaded it yesterday, and it’s working again. Good as new.

This is one of the most useful apps for a golfer, so I hope it stays live!
