Best Apps for Golfing Enthusiasts

For anyone that remembers life before smartphones became the norm, it seems almost impossible that we have so much information at our fingertips in the internet age. However, the swirling mass of content is always best when it’s been curated to give you exactly what you want when you want it. 

Apps are a great way to get the information you want, presented in a way that you find easy to access. There are plenty of different features that allow fans to keep an eye on the games and players that interest them most, and golf fans can find plenty of dedicated apps to make following the game easier and more enjoyable.

As if that weren’t enough, the app also has profiles of the golfers competing and information about the events including historical scores making it easy to see how the current competitors are doing. It’s also a great way to get the very latest news from the world of golf to allow fans to keep up with scores, draws, and statistics on a customisable dashboard that even includes tee times for each player.

There is also plenty of content for golfers that want to improve their technique or hone their skills, with lessons and tutorials on how to improve your game. It’s a great app to consult for advice on equipment as well, with information about everything a golfer could wish to know.

The Masters App

Widely regarded as one of the best in the world of sports apps, the app developed to accompany the Augusta National Masters truly is a work of art. Fans cannot praise it enough for the sleek design and easy-to-navigate menus, and the unparalleled degree to which fans can immerse themselves in the competition.

One of the headline features is the sheer level of content, including the self-explanatory ‘Every Player, Every Hole, Every Shot’ feature which means there is plenty of action for even the most dedicated fans. The leaderboard updates in real-time, the live streams cover everything a fan could possibly want: there are maps of the course, schedules, and even a bird’s eye view of each player’s progress around the course, so it’s the perfect way for fans to keep track of what’s going on at all times.

The app also has a useful feature that allows users to select the players that they are most interested in to ensure that they get their updates and information. There are tabs to show their scores and even their shots, so users can filter out their favourites from the competition and only watch their shots if they want to.

Imagine Golf

There comes a point where no club, no ball, no grip or glove will make a difference to a player’s game, and that is where the mental game of golf begins. This app is designed to help players unlock the secret to mentally focus on their game, concentrate on the shots they want to make, and create a pre-shot routine to improve the chances of landing the shot.

From breathing techniques to positive affirmations, this app is ideal for anyone taking a holistic approach to their golfing game. Practising with these tips in mind could be the secret to improving every aspect of their game.
