Golf GameBook: Scorecard & GPS 4+

Fantastic App!

I’ve been using this app for many years now and continue to love it. Being able to setup multiple games/groups and provide live scoring during the round is where this app is best. Whether it’s during our normal weekend group or on my annual golf trip, the live leaderboard quickly enhanced the in round experience so we knew who was leading, etc. Being able to share your round with others who aren’t playing is neat too. Plus, when I have had questions, they quickly responded. Keep in mind the time difference as I live in the US.

To me, the only two minor downsides of this app revolves around the Leaderboard and Game Formats.

Leaderboard - the only way someone can follow your round is if they download the app. This app had the ability to send a link so others could follow the round/tournament using their internet browser/app vs having to download the Golf Gamebook App. I understand that getting the app downloaded is the ultimate goal for the owners but for those who never play golf, trying to give them instructions on how to follow the round becomes a pain.

Game Formats - they pretty much have every game format you would like. The only suggestion I would make is having the ability to edit the specific scoring for Stableford or allow you to setup a Match Play Game and Stroke Play Game at the same time.

Nice App……but

A group of us are all on GolfGame book. It’s a great way to feel like you are apart of the round when you can’t play. The Yardage and other features are nice to have, since it’s inception and they have listened to some feedback and have added more courses that wasn’t originally available. When Gamebook was new it was really nice to be able to add a guest that didn’t have gamebook to the round even with the free app when that feature was disabled it was understandable, couldn’t offer too many extras for free. My grip is the price to upgrade your subscription. The last time I checked it was $80 for the year that seems a little excessive. I get it golf is hot right now and companies are wanting to capitalize but for me and “others who are no longer using this app” it’s not that important for me to track friends on the course via the app.

Personally I would upgrade for cheaper but not at that price, hopefully GameBook will run a special in the future. Until then I’ll keep my basic plan or find something cheaper.

Kind regards

Hi, thanks for your feedback. We have heard you and our other users and we decided to lower the price of our annual subscription to $39,99. We hope this price is more reasonable and you are willing to consider Golf GameBook again. 🙏

Great App

This app has made our weekly games more entertaining. The live scoreboards keep us involved and adds to the enjoyment of our rounds, adding pressure, letting us know who’s lighting up a good round, and getting to see if that birdie held up for a skin. The app allows us to play our team games with or without Hcps. We tend to play the same game each time and the guys that aren’t playing still get to see the games keeping us interested.
I started with the free version for a few months and it was great for most of our group. The adds were not overwhelming and I could easily follow my friends and play with them. I recently upgraded to the paid version so I could put teams together and add non-registered players to the game. The ability to look at my friends and team mates average scores helps with our team balancing and improves our game experience.
We still want more from the app.
We want to play team low ball and be able to separate the balls instead of always having to add them together.
We want Wolf.
We want to play 3 games at once.
We want to play multiple rounds (36, 54, 72 holes)
Awesome job with the App. Keep up the great work!
