Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: PickleLog at freemium against Pickleball Drills's subscription. PickleLog also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Pickleball Drills's advantage is ratings volume (303 vs 4). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pickleball Drills sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month and PickleLog sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
