SEE HOW YOUR BAG FLIES • Flight charts: see the estimated flight of every disc, tuned to your arm speed. • Your real flight numbers: beat-in or unusual disc? Enter how it actually flies and the charts follow. • Bag coverage: a speed-by-stability grid shows where your bag has gaps and which discs overlap. • Fill the gaps: tap a gap to see discs you already own that would fill it. • Multiple bags: build a bag for each course or condition, and pick your active bag on iPhone or Watch. PLAN EVERY SHOT • Rangefinder: measure the distance to your target on an interactive satellite map. • Elevation and wind: factor in height differences and live wind speed and direction. • Smart disc suggestions: recommendations based on how far you actually throw each disc. TRACK YOUR GAME • Statistics and charts: averages, longest throws and distance distributions by disc and throw type. • Filter and edit: find throws by disc, date or throw type, and fix details afterwards. • Your go-to throw: set your dominant throw once and it's preselected every time. • iCloud sync: your discs, bags and throws stay in sync between your iPhone and Apple Watch.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Disc Golf Caddy Pro at 229 against DiscScout's 13. Disc Golf Caddy Pro also leads on iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). DiscScout's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 58%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Disc Golf Caddy Pro sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per year and DiscScout sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.4 for Disc Golf Caddy Pro against 4.5 for DiscScout. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Disc Golf Caddy Pro has 229 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 58% of Disc Golf Caddy Pro's written reviews are positive against 67% of DiscScout's.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
