Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Range at 5.0 against PGA Member's 3.9. Range also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.4). PGA Member's advantage is ratings volume (10 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
