Hi Guys,

This is probably totally the wrong spot, or covering over-walked turf, but whats everyone's go-to-golf toolkit on their phones and watches. Mine is:

 - TeeTimes.co.uk to find cheap rounds
 - PING's app for putter training
 - PGA Tour Live & NowTV to watch the pros
 - Balata - to track my shots and improvement*
 

Love to know what everyone else uses,

Dan

For me I really only have two. PGA Tour app and Hole 19 GPS app. The former is pretty obvious, but I love Hole 19 for a golf gps as you can use it with your phones location services set to off as having that on will drain your battery by the 5th hole. You can download a map and just find a tree or bunker you are close to and set your position based on that and it gives you yardage. I would kind of like an app that keeps track of my yardages with different clubs and or more practice stats.

This sounds boring, but the native photo app for videoing your swing. So easy to use. You think, how hard can it be? Yeah, try videoing on an Android phone. In all honesty, it's been awhile since I tried on an Android phone, so it probably got better. The iOS camera interface is so intuitive and you can just figure out how to use it so quickly. It's fast, I can put a video on YouTube in a flash.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

GolfLogix for distances including to hazards, etc., pictures of fairway, when I feel necessary such as on a new course; and a SkyCaddie watch for front, center, back. I like both as quick aids. -Marv

    • Day 118: 4/23/24 Stack Full Speed spectrum training session 2/24. Finished 1 mph over last session but 4 mph slower than the preceding program.
    • Hitting some good shots on my golf trip. It's good I can tell when I hit better shots the way I want to swing the ball versus when I use an older swing. Shockingly, the short game has been at worst, not harmful to my game. I am using similar feels to the full swing, in that I try to get my hands down. I've been nipping the ball clean off the turf. 
    • I was laid off two months ago. Good severance, a 90 day layoff announcement regulation the company wanted to avoid so technically I'm still on the payroll for a few weeks, and a bunch of banked PTO, so I'm in a great spot and working on a startup idea I've been batting around with my brother for a while. That means I've got time to get to the gym! I'm at like 60-75 minutes 5x a week of strength training, and either a run or a bunch of time playing soccer or tennis with my daughter on the weekends. Stronger than I've been in forever. Up ~5 pounds of (noticeable!) muscle!
    • Do you have examples of exceptional scores versus their established handicap indexes?
    • Day 539, April 23, 2024 Mirror work once again. When I get back to swings, I'll just do it A. LOT.
