"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

GL Golf Reviews
Excellent and challenging game.
We 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. Its 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.
Loads of realistic golf but game does frustrate when putting.
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?
We thoroughly enjoy the app and the course it offers. However, after we 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 we basically have wasted one of the additions. This is the only issue we have.
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 youre looking at a possible five star rating.
Got a new XR and just tried to use the app and it doesnt work anymore.
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. We repeat thiis review… These coures (except for 1 0r 2 ) are a biunch of crap… And we want our money back ! Lawrence Corina.
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 wouldnt 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 we repeat our complaint: the putting part of this app is totally insane. Im very close to junking this app, unless you correct this terrible part of the game.
Does anyone actually play this app… We do. Can any one tell us 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, Ill just keep waiting for the replay to finish, so we can keep playing(when game is done doing what it wants to do), because we inadvertently taped the ill placed replay button. Space them out already, pretend like you care.
Bought upgrade waste of money frustrating game many holes no direction greens tilt one way ball goes other so many issues we 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.
Tapping the swing button nothing happens!! Tried all suggestions in support to no avail! App works fine on iPhone 8 and iPad Air.
Play a little every day. Adjustable settings u set before your shot.
Played this game a lot when it worked on our iPhone 5. Stopped working on our iPhone 7. Installed it on an old iPad (iOS 10.3.3) and enjoying the game again! Please update!!
Does not work on iPhone XR contacted the company 3xs no answer.
Swing function stopped working. Still not fixed 3/10/19.
How do we go from 14 coins to 3 coins in one day? Rip off thats how.
Please fix this. It still locks up and we have to shut down to quit. We LOVED this game. Now its unplayable basically.
Realistic, a range of challenges from easy to difficult, good graphics, wide variety of courses. I’d rather not tell you how many hours we’ve spent playing this game – it’s a lot – and we’ve enjoyed every one of them.
Fun and easy to use with great courses.
This is a delightfully engaging, and sometimes frustrating game. . . A lot like the actual sport. We highly recommend it!
Have been playing this for a few years but lately we have not been able to finish a game without getting shut down Notas good as it used to be. Needs repairs desperately.
Normally works great, but since last update it keeps crashing. Needs to be fixed!!!
Almost unplayable on our iPad. Use to work great and we enjoyed playing. Now performance is terrible and makes the game almost unplayable.
Last update rendered app useless on our ipad.
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.
Love this game! Easy to play and very enjoyable!
Believe us we’ve tried them all. This is the best golf app out there. No other golf app has the ability to shape your shot like this one. It is the only app that we have purchased everything available. Being left-handed we appreciated the upgrade where they allowed the golfer to be left-handed. The only thing we haven’t bought is the extra Mulligan pack because we think that would be cheating. If we do have one critique it is what’s up with the overhead view of the hole? That’s a nice feature but useless because the clouds cover what you’re trying to look at. We’ve played close to 300 rounds and we usually play as a foursome so that’ll tell you that we do play this game a lot. Only other suggestion would be to upgrade the graphics. If this game could look like the course you’re playing, (i.e. That other game WGT) Despite the low resolution blocky graphics, we will play this game forever.
Had this game on our 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 we’re a fifteen handicapper….. In THIS world we’re a scratch player…. Lol LOVE this app.
Totally addicted to this game, we play it every day on our morning commute. Never gets old with all of the course!!
Love this game! Nice on our iPad mini, but runs faster on our iPhone 6plus. Blind man’s bluff needs work tho.
This app is almost as good as GL Golf for Macbook, missing only a few view features. We’re never bored standing in line. Some courses (and the greens, especially, on some courses) are ridiculous, so we just don’t play them. There are enough more realistic courses to enjoy. We have no idea what the scoring leaders must do to post 18-hole scores of 42 and such. But we could not care less. Not interested in hypertechnical play. Thanks!
Good app! Game is realistic to a round of golf. Putting can be difficult at times… Just like real golf!
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.
We’ve had it with this game. The markers on the greens are significantly inconsistent, breaking the wrong way on a very random basis. We welcome tough greens, but not intentionally misleading.
Hours of challenging fun! Love this app!
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, we still love the game!!
No frills golf game with all the options and info you need. Perfect.
Enjoy this game. Many courses. Different levels of play make it challenging. Match play with other people online is good too. This game has helped us get through many long meetings, doctors office visits, etc.
Can’t get the game to work we can use all options but can’t hit the ball nothing happens when tapping swing.
Ok, so the ball bounces in all different directions, just like a real course. Graphics are decent, need to be careful on what club to use, had this for a long time and we always go back to this game, even after better games out there. Naturally you have to purchase courses but no big deal, you can get along with what the game provides, go a while. Never crashe, but after an upgrade, better looks on the first page, somehow we went back to the original page we had prior upgrade. Can,t explain. We wish that we could upgrade but don,t know how we recommend the game, it will keep you busy and you can get some enjoyment from playing.
This game achieves a good balance of being hard enough to play well and easy enough to play. It keeps your interest as you try to improve your score. However, some of the greens are so rediculous that we don’t play those courses.
Good app with a variety of course layouts. A couple courses, while challenging video, are not the type of holes you would find in reality. Fun though.
