Distance PRO Play the right golf shot. Built on YOUR carry distances. Distance PRO captures and displays your carry distances across a wide range of clubs and shots, with optional adjustments for wind, temperature and altitude. Designed by golfers, for golfers of all abilities, Distance PRO helps you make more informed decisions and select the right shot to get you closer to the hole. A simple and feature-rich experience that captures carry distances and shows your gapping between your clubs and individual shots. When you're on the course, simply search for the distance you want to land the ball and Distance PRO will present a range of suitable shots and clubs to choose from. Add as many clubs as you have available. If you have more than 14 clubs, then you can exclude the clubs you don't plan to carry (or play) during your round. They will be temporarily hidden from screens and searches. Build your shots around your swing Distance PRO supports different swing-length systems, so you can record distances in the way you naturally think about your swing. Use a clock system — such as 7:30, 9:00, 10:30 and stock — or a percentage system — such as 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 and stock. Record multiple carry distances for each club based on your swing length, with additional options to capture high and low ball flights, plus draws and fades. Combine these different shot types to build a detailed picture of your game and give yourself more options when you're faced with a specific distance on the course. All your data is clearly displayed and quick to reference when you need it. Play with the conditions Weather can have a significant effect on how far the ball carries. Enable the weather function, point your device in the direction you plan to take your shot and Distance PRO can calculate adjustments to your carry distances based on wind, temperature and altitude. With its smart search, you can include current weather conditions when searching for a distance, helping Distance PRO identify the best shots and clubs for the conditions you are playing in. Play in yards or meters Playing golf abroad shouldn't mean doing mental math before every shot. Once you've entered your carry distances, you can temporarily convert all your distance data (including weather adjustments) between yards and meters (or vice-versa) with a single button press. For example, if you normally play in the UK and travel to France, you can switch from yards to meters without having to re-enter any of your distances. Built around your game With an impressive number of personalizations and customization options, giving you the information you need for your next golf shot. Your best golf starts here.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ffgolf at none against Distance's 1. ffgolf also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 18.6). Distance's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
