Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Access By Troon at none against GolfKB's shown. Access By Troon also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). GolfKB's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
