"This is a solid game and should definitely be on every duffer's app download list." -tuaw.com "In the end, GL Golf is an incredibly deep game, serving up six courses and tons of options, it never gets old" -iPhoneGamingNetwork.com "Of all the golf games and simulations I’ve played so far for the iPhone, there’s one that stands head-and-shoulders above the rest. GL Golf." -intomobile.com "I must say, this app is a very fun app. I am kind of addicted." -iPhoneMatters.com "The game play is solid. To swing the club just double tap on the screen; when the power meter reaches to a spot you want, just single tap and the club will swing, hitting the ball. You can change the type of club you have by dragging your finger up/down the screen, thereby changing the range. The game does pause itself when you tap the home button, so if you get a call while playing, you won't lose your game. " -Tuaw.com

I installed it back in 2013 and still play it weekly; it’s a great kill time game, graphics are low def with its charm. I hope there could be more courses though. Please release an update with improved graphics and additional courses. Thanks.

I LOVE this game! I pretty much play at least 1 round every day and it’s fun and challenging every time! Please add more courses but otherwise don’t change a thing. This is my perfect golf game 😎⛳️🏌🏻♂️👍🏻👍🏻

One of my all time favorites games, but it crashes all the time on iOS 18 and is basically unplayable. I really hope they can fix it.
- gerbnole · v2.570
I absolutely love this game, sadly the new iOS update has made it not as playable. Every time I play on hobo canyon I get booted out after the 2nd through 6th hole. Hopefully there is a patch or an update to the game soon. Shawn

Absolutely loved this game untill, one day I accidentally deleted the game. I downloaded it back and restored my in-game purchases as well. After I did this I went to play the same course I played every time, August Lane Black Tees and 4th pins. I played hole one and then the game crashed. By crashed in meaning I finish the hole and the app just simply closed. I’m still giving it a 3 star rating because of how fun that it was before it began doing this. If anyone has some tips just try to let me know! Thanks.

DO NOT BUY..Never updates and crashes constantly. They crash on purpose and want you to spend money on upgrades you already purchased. Apple please remove this from your store
- Hippstaa · v2.570
Great game except the putting needs work and a little bit more clarity on distances for the holes. Use in a regular IPad and the Home Screen is vey small to read, and make selections on. Which more detail on other courses to purchase. How about a preview?
- Moe moe bear · v2.570
Just purchased course group 3....(Rattlesdnake, Morrosfiled, San Jacinto......) most of these are crap. In addition to being rediculous layouts, on many the V choice ( preview of shot) does not show what may happen, where the ball winds up, etc. I repeat thiis review... these coures (except for 1 0r 2 ) are a biunch of crap... and I want my money back !

I wish the developers would allow you to read the description of the courses before buying. Not familiar with a lot of these courses. Also wish the would add a few more. One suggestion would be Highland Woods. It’s an Illinois Cook County Forest Preserve course that is really challenging. In the same area is Arlington Lakes, an Arlington Heights, Illinois park district course that is a real challenge because of all the traps and water that comes into play on a relatively shorter course with tight lies.
- troust54 · v2.570
Does anyone actually play this app... I do. Can any one tell me why, the replay bottom is so close to the loft/punch. You have the whole left side of the screen, yet everything is bunched up, like it makes a difference of what you can see on the course. Instead, I’ll just keep waiting for the replay to finish, so I can keep playing(when game is done doing what it wants to do), because I inadvertently taped the ill placed replay button. Space them out already, pretend like you care.
- E B easy · v2.570
Got a new XR and just tried to use the app and it doesn’t work anymore 😢😢
- smudge07 · v2.570
Bought upgrade waste of money frustrating game many holes no direction greens tilt one way ball goes other so many issues I can't mention Them all one of the holes the ball stops in mid flite as if you hit a tree or something they need to address all the issues instead of adding more things to spend money one of the worst apps because of this
- Q topper · v2.570
A very well designed app with very realistic golfing situations. BUT ! The putting part of most games is atrocious. Very unpredictable with many missed puts for no real reason. Almost impossible to gauge green nuances to make a good decision, or similar “problems “ that wouldn’t exists anyhow. The designers need to redo the entire putting scene. The putting scheme is stupid....when are you guys going to do something about this.....terrible, impossible !!!! Lawrence Corina I repeat my complaint: the putting part of this app is totally insane. I’m very close to junking this app, unless you correct this terrible part of the game.
- Larroin · v2.570
I thoroughly enjoy the app and the course it offers. However, after I added all the courses that are available 5 of the courses scrolled to the bottom of the page and 4 of them are inoperable. Considering the fact you have to pay for adding courses I basically have wasted one of the additions. This is the only issue I have
- Coventry07 · v2.570
Fairly realistic drives and fairway shots. The reason for only three stars is the horrible putting part of the program. Definitely not realistic to the point it actually ruins the game for you. Headed towards a round of 62, but six putted on par three! The ball would not drop in the hole, very unrealistic. Correct the putting issue and you’re looking at a possible five star rating.
- Boyfmnyc · v2.570
Tapping the swing button nothing happens!! Tried all suggestions in support to no avail! App works fine on iPhone 8 and iPad Air
- arsenal 50 · v2.570
Excellent and challenging game
- Krater head · v2.570
Outstanding golf game!
- jag005 · v2.570
Loads of realistic golf but game does frustrate when putting.
- waype1 · v2.570
Swing function stopped working. Still not fixed 3/10/19

Does not work on iPhone XR contacted the company 3xs no answer
- rayabarrett · v2.561
Too many crashes,needs fixing
- Champalas · v2.561
Played this game a lot when it worked on my iPhone 5. Stopped working on my iPhone 7. Installed it on an old iPad (iOS 10.3.3) and enjoying the game again! Please update!!
- Newmatic Jack · v2.561
Great fun.
- NormanJA · v2.561
Play a little every day. Adjustable settings u set before your shot.
- NYC Dave 711 · v2.561
Please fix this. It still locks up and I have to shut down to quit. I LOVED this game. Now it’s unplayable basically.
- coxfamily · v2.560
Locks up and crashes a lot
- Stonman2000 · v2.550
This is a delightfully engaging, and sometimes frustrating game. . . a lot like the actual sport. I highly recommend it!
- Keikensha · v2.550
Last update rendered app useless on my ipad
- gbrooks7759 · v2.550
Realistic, a range of challenges from easy to difficult, good graphics, wide variety of courses. I'd rather not tell you how many hours I've spent playing this game - it's a lot - and I've enjoyed every one of them.
- IHateiTunesToo · v2.550
Normally works great, but since last update it keeps crashing. Needs to be fixed!!!
- Fast and few · v2.550
Have been playing this for a few years but lately I have not been able to finish a game without getting shut down Notas good as it used to be. Needs repairs desperately.
- dancnjd · v2.550
Fun and easy to use with great courses.
- DuLac54 · v2.550
Almost unplayable on my iPad. Use to work great and I enjoyed playing. Now performance is terrible and makes the game almost unplayable.
- JimWoodward · v2.550
Enjoy playing.
- RHSBandmom · v2.550
This game is definitely fun to play and has very easy courses to challenging. Whatever your mood you can find a course to match it
- Rmberry2100 · v2.540
Love this game! Easy to play and very enjoyable!
- Inspector Wildcat · v2.540
Had this game on my iPhone and iPad for several years. They continue to update and improve. Very rarely crashes. You can buy additional course packages, so, if and when you get bored with your current courses.....voila.....you have a bunch of new courses to play. Just like the real thing you have to decide whether to lay up or go for it....Draw or fade......backspin....it's all there. In the real world I'm a fifteen handicapper.....in THIS world I'm a scratch player....lol LOVE this app.
- bassetdad · v2.530
Love this game! Nice on my iPad mini, but runs faster on my iPhone 6plus. Blind man's bluff needs work tho.
- Oldguybackatit · v2.530
Solid game.
- Bamuph · v2.530
This app is almost as good as GL Golf for Macbook, missing only a few view features. I'm never bored standing in line. Some courses (and the greens, especially, on some courses) are ridiculous, so I just don't play them. There are enough more realistic courses to enjoy. I have no idea what the scoring leaders must do to post 18-hole scores of 42 and such. But I could not care less. Not interested in hypertechnical play. Thanks!
- Nimbleswitch · v2.530
I've had it with this game. The markers on the greens are significantly inconsistent, breaking the wrong way on a very random basis. I welcome tough greens, but not intentionally misleading.
- #1 Buck Fan · v2.530
Totally addicted to this game, I play it every day on my morning commute. Never gets old with all of the course!!
- GolferDude232 · v2.530
Overall, very entertaining. Wide variety of fun courses and fairly realistic play. Still a couple of bugs on one or two of the courses, but by and large, a solid product.
- Stevehva · v2.530
Good app! Game is realistic to a round of golf. Putting can be difficult at times...just like real golf!
- Mr.Esteban · v2.530
No frills golf game with all the options and info you need. Perfect
- genisis53 · v2.520
Can't get the game to work I can use all options but can't hit the ball nothing happens when tapping swing.
- Prmcconn · v2.520
Love the game. The accuracy of the Left-handed golfer mode seems to be not quite as accurate as the right-handed mode. Tends to go slightly off target on a semi-regular basis. Other than that, I still love the game!!
- FantasticPE · v2.520
Hours of challenging fun! Love this app!
- peggmag1 · v2.520
Good graphics and ease of use
