Lets Talk Favorite Golf App

Another vote for the Grint. HP tracker, GPS and scorecard. I’m not sure I need anything else

I've got a few favorite apps at the moment. The first of which is V1 golf. Been using this for years now to record my swing. I get occasional lessons, and the app works great when I haven't seen the instructor in a while. I was in a funk for a few weeks and couldn't figure out why. One face-on recording of my swing and I realized I was started my downswing with too much of a sliding of the hips. I was getting hands stuck way behind me, hips all out of place, and far too much weight forward (and too early). 

 

I would recommend V1 golf app to anyone

My favorite app for the longest time was Golflogix. It was free and allowed for a rangefinder on your phone... but it has been very, very buggy the past year or so. Even for the paid version it would not follow me around the course correctly. It would say I'm 999 yards from the hole that i'm on, and it would show my location somewhere very far away. 

 

Anyone else have any issues with Golf Logix?

Favorite on-course app right now is 18Birdies. Pretty obvious as to why as it's a free rangefinder. My handheld Golfbuddy isn't working right now so i'm sticking to 18birdies for yardages

Anyone have any recommendations for favorite handheld rangefinders? Current golfbuddy is broken and the apps on my phone are just keeping me afloat.

As I said previously, I used Hole19 but I never really loved the app. After reading all the responses, I started using 18Bridies.
Has anyone ever used the side games in 18Bridies?

Favorite rangefinder is Precision Pro NX 9. It quickly picks up the pin, fabulous customer service and a great price. They're a sponsor here and continuously run discount coupons. Send them a pm via MGS.

I've been using Golfpad since I lost my rangefinder 3 years ago. As a previous poster said that it only gives you front, middle and back yardages. However being an 8 or 9 handicapper I can not hit an exact yardage so I just subtract 7 yards from the middle yardage for a front pin location and add 7 yards for a back pin. All of our greens are about 35 yards from front to back. As for the features, I can keep score, keep track of fairways hit, Greens in regulation, up and downs, sand shots and total putts. All of that is for free. If you want to pay a fee then it will keep track of yardage for each club and strokes gain. The best part its easy to use and does not take a lot of time or effort to input your score.

I use a Bushnell Pro X2 and my buddy has a Bushnell Tour v4, love using them both, they work amazingly well. The JOLT feature is great and tells you as soon as it locks onto the flag, the only time I have maybe faced some issues with it is when the flag is tucked in a dark corner of the green or the flag is surrounded by trees in the background, besides that it works great.

I've been using GolfShot for years... and recently just went back to it until my Shotscope V3 arrives!

One feature I really want to try is the Augmented Reality, but I only have the free version without it. It suffices if you only need distances, hole fly-over and basic stats (GIR, scrambling, putts, fairways hit)

Based on an earlier post, I just looked at GolfLogix GPS + Putt Line in the App Store, and I may have to try that out just for the green reading feature IF it has my regular courses. If it’s like the pics, it could be very helpful. However it’s $9.99/mo or $49.99/yr or $2.99 for a 2-day pass. Seems illegal but then all pros have green reading books these days, so maybe not? I’m perfectly happy with my Garmin Approach S20 for distances, hazards, score keeping, stats and club distances - so I’d use GolfLogix for green reading only.

For green reading, StrackaLine is another option?

[edit:

• not legal as I was afraid https://progolfnow.com/2019/04/26/putt-line-new-golf-app-reads-putt-correctly-every-time/
• and of course the app doesn’t know where the pin is, so you have to place it accurately yourself, not sure how easy that would be
• it’s available on 13,000 courses and growing - since it’s a paid subscription I’m guessing it’s only available on higher $ courses, but I haven’t figured out where I can see the list of courses]
