Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Golfy at none against Garmin Golf's 2. Golfy also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). Garmin Golf's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 17%) and chart position (#81 vs unranked). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
