Ratings and reviews

Horrible. The website won't do anything after clicking the post score button half the time. The app locks up ( just shows spinning icon ) after changing golfers. If I get it to change then after clicking the post score button on the homepage it goes to a blank white page and does nothing. Closing the app and reopening won't fix it. The search for courses to enter isn't very good. I.e. it darn near has to be perfect to find the course. Somehow the recently played course list says none...

What used to be the best free app out there is now AWFUL. The functionality is completely counterintuitive. The fonts are too small (making reading the date virtually impossible). Even the most basic function (posting scores) is difficult to do. This is a very big disappointment. With the new handicapping system and daily changes to handicaps using the app should be much much easier. Please bring back the previous version!

I pay for the advanced features. The GPS charts are fairly accurate, especially on approach shots. Some of the traps and trees are off by 5yds. If you're going to play in a serious match, playing a practice round and walking off or shooting the yardage would be much more accurate. This is especially true if you need accurate cover distances. The Green maps are helpful if you like that kind of thing. Submitting your scores is a breeze. I'd say this is a must-have app and you will enjoy it!
