Verdict

The call

GolfPro and GolfPass both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of GolfPro's written reviews are positive against 46% of GolfPass's. GolfPro also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ads (none vs shown). GolfPass's advantage is ratings volume (5.5K vs 6). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
