I tested the 3 best golf apps for Apple Watch — here are my favorites

The fight to get better in golf never ends Golfers like me are always looking for new tools to add to their toolbox Whether it's a new golf glove, a new pair of golf shoes, a driver, or other gadgets, we all turn us into the golfer we want to be

Surprisingly, the best tool to improve your golf game may be the one you already own — the Apple Watch I recently spent some time with the new practice tools of Apple Watch Ultra and Golfshot, and that's what I have to say that the right app is the Ultimate Golf score Tracker and Practice

I've tried three of the best Apple Watch scoring and statistics tracking apps- Arccos, Golfshot and TheGrint— and I'm not sure if it's the right app There are things that stand out as great but my clear favorite not in what they all do

I've been using Arccos as long as I'm playing golf It is a great app to keep your golf score It uses your club's sensors to know when you hit a shot and automatically gives you

But it's not without problems The largest of them is the price You buy sensors (or get them for free when the company offers promotions that are most of the time) and access the service It also does nothing during golf practice — the app is strict to track scores and statistics on the course

That said, when you learn how to use Arccos on your Apple Watch, it becomes a magical experience Take the vibration in the sphere with your driver (ideally, breaking it completely down the middle) and walk up to your sphere to find out exactly how far you went When you hit the next shot and when you reach the ball you see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see how far it went (hopefully over the green) You can see Hit your putt (which is also tracked by the Arccos sensor) and go to the next hole Your score is recorded and you are good to go

After playing three full rounds of 18, you can view all kinds of statistics about your golf game You offer the average distance of each club, stroke got versus your goal handicap in four categories (driving, approach, short and pa therefore cost but the ease of use of Arcoss and the sheer amount of data it provides is incredible for golfers who own an Apple Watch

Golfshot offers some of the same features as Arccos, but uses AI instead of a tracker for score tracking and swing analysis Use your knowledge of the game to predict which clubs will be hit, and use the sensors on your Apple Watch to make sure you've taken a shot It's great because you don't have to stick anything in the club You can also save a lot of money with Golfshot, as its Pro version costs only年間69 per year (which is required to get all the features)

In addition to shot tracking and all the statistics that come with it, you'll also get a new practice feature that uses sensors on Apple Watch to provide all kinds of data on your swing It's not as robust as a full-featured startup monitor, but it's still very useful It's so useful, in fact, that even though I've been an Arccos user for a long time, I've actually continued to use Golfshot after testing only for practice features

Although very popular among Apple Watch users, TheGrint is behind the other 2 apps because it doesn't offer automatic shot tracking However, if you want to log manually, it will provide a lot of information and data 1 feature that stands out in ThePrint is that you can see the green outline on the Apple Watch display This is a great feature to have accessible when it comes to learning to line up putts and read greens You can go low and select your line based on your eyes and check your Apple Watch to see if the selected line matches the green map listed in ThePrint

It does not provide score tracking, distance to all those kinds of greens and goodies, but you still need to add scores, putts and other data manually as you play The trade-off is that TheGrint's premium plan is much cheaper than other apps and is only440 per year

Each of these 3 Apple Watch golf apps offers something that makes them stand out With Arccos you get sensors for detailed shot tracking and club selection Golfshot offers similar tracking, but at a lower price without sensors In addition, it has tons of features to work in the operating range ThePrint does not have tracking, but it costs only a fraction of the other apps and has a green contour map on the clock

Eventually, I'm a creature of habit and stick to Arccos for tracking and scoring shots on my course But I'm also going to continue using Golfshot for the range and see more details about my swing I like TheGrint, but I've been used to spending money on auto-tracking apps, and if I can go back to doing it manually, but if you're not familiar with it and want to save money, it's a perfectly viable option
