Extremely accurate I bought this app and compared its accuracy with the Sureshot GPS (very common and very good in Australia). My $1.99 app agreed with the $300+ Sureshot to within 1 metre every time (the guy with the Sureshot was kinda annoyed LOL). I would recommend this app to anyone, but PLEASE map your courses carefully...the accuracy of this app relies upon the quality of the GPS in your phone and the quality of the mapping.

Not accurate Not accurate yardage's at the 1 course I tried it on. Off by 7- 12 yards.

Great app for the price. I used this app on my T-Mobile HTC Amaze for the first time yesterday. The distances seemed very accurate. The battery was still at 1/2 when the round ended, so that is not a problem at all. CONS: The maps are not very useful. They are very slow to load, can't be rotated to line the hole up with the screen, and the distance markers are too small to see in bright light. It might help if the course map could be downloaded to the phone like some hiking GPS apps do. Scaling the distance text with the map would also help a lot. These don't seem like trivial changes, but would add tremendously to the value of the app. PROS: It has an accurate and easy to use range display. I payed $3.50 for a soft drink during the round of golf. So at $2.00, this is a super bargain for any golfer. Even without the maps or scorecard, this is still a 5 star app.

Fantastic & a steal. Developer is very nice. Works perfect on my 4G HTC Rezound. Developer is very nice. Course mapper makes adding or editing any course easy. Better then $40/year or stand alone. Accurate. So easy to add/fix courses. Beats out device in the $200-300 range. I will be donating more money since it feels like robbery at $2. I only wish it would make my golf game better :)

Works great! Just compared to my friends new garmin and it was as accurate as the garmin was on our home course. Will be taking this on golf trip in May.

Works great Easy to use and you can customise courses you know

Must have for the avid golfer. I love this app. It's accurate and gives distances to danger on the course. You can measure how long you hit your drives and shut your friends up. The app is not a battery hog either. All the courses I play are saved in memory so I can access them quickly on the way to the tee.

Best 2 dollars I ever spent on golf Easy to use. Accurate. Has all the courses I play. What else can you ask for for 2 bucks?

Great app Very accurate and good battery life

by Ross the 2/19/2012

Awesome Accurate to within 1-3 yards...lets u measure your shots after u hit them.....courses are stored in the cloud so doesnt waste memory....the only addition i would make would be to add in the distances to bunkers etc on the hole to help avoid hazards....saved over $100 from having to buy a gps range finder

Danny 02/12/12 Used it 2 rounds so far, no problems. Very accurate and easy to use. I bought a Sky Caddie SGX couple weeks ago and returned it already. For the money, a great app. Glad I bought the extended battery. 10 handi. HTC Thunderbolt.

Fantastic golf tool... I have been using this app for over a year and it works great. Accurate and also a big help with my game and shooting abilities. I've played with guys who have $300.00 rangefinders and they ask me where they can get this app. I highly recommend it.

by Daniel the 1/18/2012

Excellent App!! Been using for over a year and have had no issues. Distances are accurate, all courses available and maps load quickly. Can't beat the value and performance of this app. However, it should have an integrated scorecard and stat keeper.
