Since you are an 8 handicap, you likely need something a little more robust than the standard basic stats.   As others mentioned, I'm a fan of the Shot Scope H4.  I've been using it for just about a year (was an MGS Shot Scope Pro LX+ tester which included the H4) and I found it was easy to use, gave me the club distances I was looking for and the statistics yielded important insights into my game.  I do have to edit rounds at time.  Often, I just forget to tag my clubs and manually tagging your putts can sometimes not be in the right place.   At $129 with no subscription fee, it's a bargain.  

Don’t like wearing the watch. Phone isn’t an issue. 

No watch makes ShotScope less than ideal.
Phone options are plentiful. Here are some that have been highlighted on the forum.

And many more!

I'm not a fan of having to mess with my phone during a round, it distracts my focus.  So when I'm tracking stats, I use a strokes gained style tracking on my card, then enter the round into the GolfMetrics app on my phone when I'm finished playing.  
 
It has been a while since I've done this... probably should start doing it again to understand where I need to focus my practice :). 
 

I use Shotscope for various data points: club distances, strokes gained, short game performance and it also gives me average hole performance for a specific course. It's a one time purchase (watch and tags) so no subscription fee. 

On par 4s, after an average drive you should have 7 iron-wedge in your hand. Don't play tees that force you to always hit long irons into greens. Also don’t have a wedge into every green either.
