Dozens of more stats to analyze, per round or per set of rounds
1/4 the cost and will never have future subscriptions or update costs
Some apps claim to have "professionally marked" courses which might mean they hire people at minimum wage, to map out using Google maps. These people never set foot on the course, and never play the course.
For all the OobGolf courses that are mapped out, you can feel comfortable that someone that plays the course actually marked it.
