I try almost every golf app i can get my hands on - none of which seem to do everything exactly how you want. This one was pretty awesome though. The 3D course layouts are like a drone flying overhead giving you a better perspective on what you're getting into. 5 stars in my book
@KristoferTM - this looks pretty cool. Every couple months I think of different apps for your typical golfer. Couple Q's.
1) Is it actually "free"? Do they give you access to every course or do you have to pay per course?
2) Are you actually using it to keep stats about your round? or just using it for yardages? I find it pretty hard to constantly pull out your phone and use it for stat keeping.
3) Out of curiosity, have you used Golfshot GPS?
@mikepreuss I didn't come across any paywalls when using it, and it doesn't even look like they offer IAPs so seems totally free
2) I was like that for a while, until I started making a point to not keep score on a score card, and just use my phone for everything. Most people take a sec to fill out the card and record # of putts, it takes about the same time to tap a score and add putts in the app and then move to the next hole.
3) I have used Golfshot GPS. Another favorite - I even paid the unheard of $30 price for that years ago. I'm not exactly sure when I'll settle a single app, but it's too much fun trying all the new ones out.
@PieterPaul Agreed! Haven't heard of Game Golf so not sure how these guys differentiate. Will check it out
re: pricing. Interesting. I know licensing the golf course data is pretty expensive.
I hear ya @KristoferTM - I just find using my phone to take away from the game a little bit. Playing golf is usually a chance to get away from it all.
@MikePreuss I hear you there. Ever try a GPS watch? Gives you some essentials of what Fun Golf offers, but in a less "in-your-face-3D-futuristic" kinda way
@KristoferTM - I haven't yet. Maybe I should. A pebble + iOS app would be pretty killer.
I've tried to golf with a watch on and sometimes can bug me (I know I sound picky)
