Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Golf Orbit at 4.7 against Dunk Shot's 4.3. Golf Orbit also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months) and chart position (#159 vs unranked). Dunk Shot's advantage is review sentiment (51% vs 25%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Golf Orbit holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Golf Orbit has 59K ratings behind it against 11K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Dunk Shot's written reviews are positive against 25% of Golf Orbit's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Dunk Shot ships an update every 4 months, Golf Orbit every 2 months. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
