Not a big golf app person for on course since I find them too distracting.   Off course would be DECADE for strategy and ShotScope for performance.    DECADE does have some practice aspects,  but they started after my subscription ran out so I don't use them.   

@acatalano32What do you use and what are your favorites,  are you just trying to get some ideas for yourself or do you use any?

I’ve been interested in decade, the few things I’ve seen have been awesome. I use shotscope, I have the V3 watch and tags, I do love how it tracks performance. But I am kind of looking for apps that help with practice, also just curious to see what’s out there

What aspects of practice?   DECADE has combines for putting and iron play and speed drills for putting.    For practice I'd look to something like Adam Youngs book The Practice Manual.  I would personally not look for an app but drills that would be helpful and the just track my performance over time in a spreadsheet.

I've actually gone away from using apps. Arccos was my go to for the last 6 plus years. 

However ditched that and currently going app less. There is a good scorecard app i have tried once or twice, it has all the slopes and stuff for all our swiss and German courses pre downloaded. However i don't mind just using a pencil and original card. 

Curious what others use!

I use golfgamebook for scoring as all my friends and coworkers use it to keep score. Great interface and has the possibility to set up team events too.
"Here, look! All my friends are playing all the time. I have to post a round. See you later!"

The best by far of all the free analysis apps was "Coach's Eye".  It came free with very few ads on Android and Apple.  You could pay a small amount to upgrade which gave you a few tools, such as the ability to draw lines to identify swing planes.

The main plus was that it produced slow motion video from imported footage from your phone.  And it was ultra-slow which could be stopped or reversed.

Unfortunately, the developers, for some strange reason, decided to abandon it and stopped updating it.

I wish that they would take it up again, because it was far superior and cheaper than many of the other video analysis apps that are still around, including V1.

Our group uses this as well.  It has the best implementation of a Live Leaderboard (gross, net etc.) that I have seen.

Hello! I use GolfShot Plus! Love the app. It also tracks my shots. Giving me the distance I hit each club!

18 Birdies and V1.

My group often plays Wolf on the course.    Half the time, the guy keeping the Wolf score (sometimes me) screws up the scoring along the way, and we have to re-trace our steps and figure out where we went wrong.  Is there a scoring app out there that can keep track of the money on a game like Wolf?

My friends like the Grint app as a free alternative to GHIN, handicap tracker.

The Grint.  Best app I have found yet.  Post scores directly to GHIN while keeping score for all kinds of different games for FREE.  They keep basic stats for GIR, Fairways, and putts.  You can upgrade your experience for more detailed stats.

GRINT - I have used the Grint for years and love it! It has an app for the Apple Watch. As soon as I walk off the green I am adding my score, putts, distance of first putt, club used on drive, where drive landed left right wide left wide right, and there is a screen with options to select whether you had a water/penalty, OB, Fairway bunker, or green side bunker. After the round it give you all of your stats, Fairways hit, Greens in Reg, and Putts. When friends use the app you get notifications and can track their rounds.

The Grint is a great app for golf. Applies a social aspect to the game, along with the ability to track shots, track analysis, provide yardage in play, and even grants the ability to get a handicap. 
 

Me and my buddies use it for multiple reasons… to see live scoring updates from group to group, track multi round tournaments. We recently used it to track a Ryder style tournament we played on our last golf trip.

I use 18 Birdies and really like what it has to offer. Will be trying out the paid version this season to see if it adds value to my game.

 

[John Marchetto]

I was using the USGA GHIN App for handicapping and GPS. The free version will suffice for most - $39.99 for it to work with Apple Watch.    I also got a Bushnell Wingman for xmas and I have been testing the Bushnell app, which works pretty neat too.

[russtopherb]

The only app I use is 18 Birdies. I have it synced to my Apple Watch so I can get yardages and enter scores right from there without having to take my phone out of my pocket. 

[SDunc50]

On course, Hole19 on my AppleWatch. Practice, MySwingCaddie. Enough data to help but not get in the way of enjoying the game.

I have used a number of different apps since returning to golf in 2018/19. I started with a scorecard app that had some mapping but little in terms of stats. I moved to Golfshot which had a better function in stats and being app to record shots on a GPS track, I know the premium version allows you to manipulate the shot tracker should you wish to see a lay up option.

Have tried GRINT and 18Birdies but I have found the best stats recall and layout and directory of courses I use Taylormade On Course. 

I had been recording every round but of late with a need to flatten my handicap differences I play each shot and use a scorecard.
