Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Paddle + Par at none against My DUPR Coach's 3. Paddle + Par also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 73%). My DUPR Coach's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 296). On price, rating, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
