To me the paid version, with about the cost of a box of golf balls, is really quite worth it. I use mine along with my Apple watch and the phone stays on the cart. Your statement about GPS being 15 to 10 yards off is just not true with the current GPS constellation. The GPS "error in space". meaning all the errors such as clock error, ephemeris, iono and so forth is now down to 3 to 6 feet with at least 4 satellites in view and unless you are hidden in heavy trees etc at least 6 to 8 are visible. With the paid version you tap your watch/phone when you strike the ball and see the yardage increase as you leave that point. It also does have a great, setable, layup feature. All the bunkers, water hazards distance to the dog legs and so forth are shown on one side of the phone screen and seen at a glance. Confession - I don't need more than 5 yard measurement accuracy because I can't deliver the ball on a consistent basis to within 5 yards. The app also generates a handicap, GIR and several other stats that are quite useful that my coach finds very useful in my periodic lesson. I always enjoy your reviews but I believe in this unique case the review concentrated on the negatives of the free version, missing the usefulness of the paid version.
I use Golf Pad. It does everything I want. I use it to determine how far I hit a club. Always feel you hit further. Great for new courses and has a flyover. Records each hole so you can review your tactics each game. Only trouble is it takes a few seconds to select the club which annoys some players. It certainly cuts strokes. I’d recommend. I didn’t use a laser or a watch. This is quicker and better for me. Can upgrade to reflect “playing like” for slope and wind.
I use the upgraded paid version of golf pad and it is absolutly brilliant for the plays like feature you get the wind mph witch direction its coming from its so accurate
I'll second Golf Pad. I also got their tags, put them on all my clubs, and with the paid version it tells me what club I should hit based on the distance I have hit my previous shots, and tells me how far I hit my last shot by marking where I started and telling me how far away I am. So when I stand over my second shot I know I am 245 yards away from my tee shot. Very useful information.
Hi Alex, used 18birdies and golf shot. Have a range finder. And just find myself not using them any more. I feel it takes away that challenge. Maybe I'm just old school at 48 years. After all are you going to pick a club and therefore a swing that can hit exactly 153 yards or are you picking a club that hits between 150 to 160 yards as you would if you were just using the yard markers. In all likelihood you are still going to use the same club. The rest is up to the golf gods.
I’ve used the Golf Shot app on my iPhone for years which was displayed on this video. I pay yearly for the upgraded version and have enjoyed all of the features that are provided. The app will even connect to your GHIN here in the US and update your handicap after the round has been entered. I’m currently running the BETA version and sending back information for tracking strokes gained: putting, chipping ect. I have buddies who have other apps and it comes down to what you prefer in the end. I also utilize my Apple Watch with the app as well I have my laser for pin and other object distances. Good golfing all!
I use golf shot pro all the time, it’s great for yardage, keeps your score, you can track your shots, it does everything except hit the ball, I have a mount and usb charger on my trolley to keep the battery full when walking or booster when in a cart as it drains the battery, had a watch and laser, the app is so much easier!
Hi Alex, another great topic of contention. When I play and I don’t have a golf app on my phones. However I do switch off all notifications. I will now have a look and try some of the available apps just to see and still turn off all other notifications apart from a golf app. Cheers mate. 👍😎🇦🇺
I’ve got a laser and a sky caddie gps watch , I love the info you get from the watch and if you Track your shots you get a good display of how you played the holes.
Another Golf Pad user but pay for their premium and use the tags in the end of the grips! Tracks every shot, gives me all the stats I need and gives club recommendations along with slope yardages.
I have Just starting golf , would you go for the paid version or stick with the free version , I leave the country in four months so won't be using it until next may
I use a watch and a laser, but I have used this app before (yes, the screenshot gives away what app it is). If I'm not mistaken, the free version allows you to touch the screen to where you want to lay up, and it will give you the distance (it also gives me distances to fairway bunkers and hazards, both to reach and to carry). You mention that you question its accuracy: You're wearing a watch and carrying a laser, why didn't you compare the measurements and let us know how accurate it is? By the way, I used to wear a watch made by one of the biggest names in the business. Two others of my foursome use the same watch. Standing next to each other, there can be nearly a 10% difference in our readings. That degree of inaccuracy is why I ended up buying a new watch and a laser. Oh, and of the two of us with lasers? They always disagree by 2 yards. Not a lot, but interesting that the most accurate method of measurement is still inaccurate. That inaccurate watch cost more than three years' subscription to the app. I don't use the app, because, like you, I don't want to carry my phone with me (although it's easy to keep it in the trolley), and the watch/laser combo is good enough for a hacker like me. Having said all that, thanks for your daily videos. I've found them to be very helpful.
This is a great idea!! I will do a follow up video comparing the laser the watch and the app. The only issue with comparing all three the laser is to the flag and possible not directly in the middle of the green Thank you so much For the support and great to hear your finding the videos useful
@@AlexElliottGolf I played today, and checked my ShotScope watch against Golfshot: GPS on my iPhone, and the GPS built into the cart (sorry, buggy). The phone and buggy system were never more than 1 yard apart from each other, the watch was occasionally up to 3 yards different. In all, they were close enough for us amateurs.
Golf Pad all the way ! Got Samsung galaxy watch (use all day as normal) and the Golf Pad app for the watch means that you can leave your phone in golf bag. The stats are brilliant, and help lower scores.
I use SwingU. super happy with it. seems accurate enough for me when i pair distances with my buddies who have lasers. what I like most other than score keeping is the ability to get a distance to potential hazards. (think about that 2nd shot on a par 5 and you are laying up, or you are on the wrong side on a dogleg and don't have a look at the green)
I think it all depends on what you want to get out of it. I play with guys that still put a finger in the air and pluck a club on feel, yet I have numerous tools at my disposal, partly because I'm still on the improvement trajectory. I use the hole 19 app connected to my phone / apple watch for distances and score tracking but I also have Arccos set up on my phone (not connected to my watch as it would kill the battery) for shot tracking / data purposes. I also have a laser for those moments when I'm questioning the distance I'm given, which is rare tbh and it rarely comes out of my bag, unless I'm on an unfamiliar course and need slope compensation. It's horses for courses for apps IMO and ultimately it depends on what you're prepared to pay to get access to data.
I've used golf shot for years until I brought a v5 range finder lazer range finder is so much more accurate for yardage the only thing I miss Is the stats after the round.
Great review....I personally like the Bushnell hand held GPS and only use it and look at it to double check my figures that I come to conclude in my head from course markers...This way I am always in the Game....Thanks...
Why do you trust watch and handheld gps but not phone gps? Any difference? Also there’s drawbacks to a laser, personally don’t find them easy to use, a little twitch or unsteady hand and you get a different reading. I’m not a good golfer 23hcp. I use Hole19 pay for the extra because with love the shot tracking. Find distancing to be easy, front/middle/back and lay ups. If it tells me 140’yards I’ll hit my 7iron and Usually the right length. Can also set tee position so you get shot distances. And I found Hole19 the best /easiest to use. Can score with your mates too, plus all the stats etc!
Hi Ian! Great to hear that you have an app you love. All I’m saying is that the golf GPS companies are specialist in this field and not reliable on pho me data? Love how you have an app which is perfect for your game
Can see you point. I’d think phone GPS are going to be cutting edge tech no? The amount of money and how often they are upgraded. Keep the vids coming mate ! Need all the tips I can!
I use a Bushnell for the pin and a free app that I can tap screen and get distance to or to carry any trouble, find it’s a good combo. When I compare both only 1/2 a yard difference
Golfshot works on my watch even though iPhone is tucked in my bag. But watch face can be a bit clumsy, for example, can't back up easily to see previous holes. Also doesn't seem to work to record stats, e.g., fairways hit.
Hi Alex, interesting video. I have been using the V1 gaming app in conjunction with my laser device when dialling into the flag. Really pleased with the V1 tracking and stats that provide areas of the game to work on.
I have a Garmin G80. I tried the Shot Scope V3 and it's a pile of crap - it might work fine on iPhone, but my android version doesn't work worth a damn. Waste of money. Nothing but frustration. Arccos is too expensive. I just use the GPS data on the Garmin + my Bushnell. Works fine.
I use a garmin watch and hope its true. Would have been nice to see the app against the laser and watch (check yardage from same spot on all 3 and see the difference) Also when using your phone for driving you are travelling at a greater speed so that might be the lag you mentioned. Don't know if any of this would make a difference but just a thought. Great video again by the way.
Alex hi , you never stated how accurate it was ,for example when you took out your 5 wood . What did the app say the yardage was and what did the Lazer say.
Hi Alex I use the app you were using in the video and love it. But i do pay the subscription. When all clubs are set up it acts like a caddy telling you what club to hit plus everything you were wanting from the app (layup, back, front, centre). I have a laser as well. Works for me but everyone’s different😀
Used an app in the past and was feed up carrying my phone around with me. Then found a mount for the trolley, problem was in winter the trolley might be some way from where playing the shot. Now use a Garmin watch that gives me distances, shows layup info and also keeps the shot stats for me. So no brainier for me, carry on with the watch
@@AlexElliottGolf - it’s a Garmin Vivo Active so used for running as well as golf. Works well and is pretty accurate on distances plus love the stats it provides once uploaded
Golf Pad - certainly good enough for me. I'm high handicap - ok, very high handicap. I'm happy with what Golf Pad offers. Maybe if I was low handicap I'd feel different.
That is the App i use to keep the scores and see all the hazards and layups. I like it a lot plus they usually make a sale before every golf mayor championship. And it works flawless with the Apple Watch.
Never used a laser. I have the Motocaddy app on my phone as I have the Motocaddy S5 Connect trolly which can be a pain because the trolley often “loses” the phone and you have to uninstall and reinstall the app on the phone. Total nuisance and I believe lots have had the same problem. I also have a Garmin Multisport Fenix 6 watch as I also want scuba diving and skiing on it. The Fenix gives me layups too. A mate at my club often says “What you need all that b*llocks for…there’s a 150 yard marker over there” 😀. Never come across a 150 yard layup marker 😀
I use the garmin app in conjunction with my garmin approach x40 watch. Logs putts, gir, fairways hit or missed left/right. I do carry a range finder too but only use it for approach shots and use my watch for reassurance. Gapping session works wonders to take to the course 👍
When I saw your putter cover fly up in the air as you made your way to the green on that first hole, I thought, "He might want an app that tells him where that cover landed". 😁
I play where there are a couple of holes where you play blind second shots so laser no good there. A laser might be accurate for yardages but I’m not!!
@@AlexElliottGolf Easy 8/10. It pretty much does everything. I mainly use with a smartwatch which gives you last shot distance, front, middle and back of greens. If you use the app on the phone you can also move shots around for lay up distances etc. After your round it also gives loads of stats. I don't own a laser so can't say how accurate it is but otherwise couldn't fault it.
Great video Alex. I'm new this season, to a Shot Scope 2 watch. Pros, tons of great features. Stats, all yardages, round tracking, upload to PC for evaluation after each round. Entire season saved. Cons, doesn't show current score during the round. The big con for me, I never wear a watch on my right wrist as I'm right handed, however, I golf left and the watch must be worn on your glove hand. I'm still not used to the watch on my right hand while I play. I hope that stops being a problem next season. Thank you. #100club.
You said twice that you wanted to see how accurate the app/phone was but you never told us! I would have thought, standing in the fairway, in view of the flag you could do a direct comparison between the laser that you trust and the app. Simples.
Don’t understand the comparison of being able to log driver distance on other devices that are paid for and complaining you can’t do it on the free version of the app. Lasers aren’t free, those other devices aren’t free etc so why would an app people have developed and put millions into course mapping, software development etc have everything there free? Seems odd, be like people comparing a free taster of a golf lesson to a paid lesson and complaining they didn’t get as much from it
I get your point totally Chris - but the app is advertised as all you need on it for free. So this is my point - it doesn’t have everything you need? I think it’s a great app just a few downfalls in my opinion
@@AlexElliottGolf yeah fair one if they’re saying that, I hadn’t read the blurb for the app so didn’t realise they’re touting it to have all you need. Be interesting to know how close they are to the standalone devices and if it’s the app or gps tech that’s the limiter on accuracy
Golf apps!! So many to choose from on the App Store! Is there any that you would recommend?
Which do you recommend for shot tracer ? Can't find anything for Android, is it just iOS
Hole19 I’ve used for a year and love it. $50 a year and does everything I need.
I've played one round with SwingU free version. It seemed good so I'll see after a few rounds. I did buy an Apple Watch recently so that's a plus
18birdies but I only use the free version and I only use it for GPS yardage. Works great.

I get your point totally Chris - but the app is advertised as all you need on it for free. So this is my point - it doesn’t have everything you need?
I think it’s a great app just a few downfalls in my opinion
@@AlexElliottGolf yeah fair one if they’re saying that, I hadn’t read the blurb for the app so didn’t realise they’re touting it to have all you need.
Be interesting to know how close they are to the standalone devices and if it’s the app or gps tech that’s the limiter on accuracy
