The old version was better when it come to the play option in this app. It used to tell you a lot more as far as distance, dogleg, how far to a hazard, I was able to touch a spot on my screen to get that distance. You also could log in more stats, short, long,sand trap, ect. In my opinion this version is a step backwards.

I've tried several golf apps and this has become my favorite. Clear GPS images and easy to add score. Distances are easily marked and has included every course I've been to. There is a wind direction indicator at the top right that was a bit off. It had the wind coming from the wrong direction. Great so far and any improvements would be bonus.

Only good thing about the GPS on this app is you can rotate to the degree you want. Can't zoom in, just enlarges the image so the quality decreases. Can't get yardage for where you want to go, points are predetermined and always to the centre of the green so you basically have to guess the difference if the pin location is somewhere other than where the app is telling you the distance to. mScorecard is far superior for scorekeeping and GPS. Sorry GNC but you gotta up your game cuz you're sub par
