I've tried a lot of golf apps in my time, but this one is a stand out. Enjoy our in depth review of The Grint app for iOS and Android. Please let us know what you think!
What a great video! Information galore. I’ve downloaded the app but not played a round yet. You’ve answered a lot of questions I had and I’m looking forward to using GRINT. Thanks for the attention to detail! Good work! Hats off! Cheers!!!
Great review, but these GPS golf apps like The Grint, 18 Birdies, and SwingU all drain my phone’s battery. Instead, I use the Garmin S12 golf watch. It’s accurate, tracks your stokes and is easy to adjust on the fly, all without having to pull out my phone. Cheers and happy golfing!
Heard rumors that one of the major companies is working on a small GPS position transmitter that fits onto the top of existing flagsticks. They also work on a universal software interface so that the position signal can be picked up by GPS watches, smartphone golf apps and GPS screens on electric trolleys to show the exact pin position on the green. That would be a fantastic feature!
my favorite feature in 2023 is the bad play notifications. hilarious. got a notification the other day that my buddy “cantt stop 3 putting, thats 4 in a row!”. lol. best golf app period!
How can you track a ter shot that went OB? I can see there’s an option at the end to mark penalties but how do you know it was with your driver and not your 6iron?
Spot on video with clear information and sincere comments like "sand-bagging bastard." This one hit home :) I'll make sure to turn off my notifications for Spencer's penalties, don't need to be blowing up all day long.
How golf has changed , I've not played for about 12 years or so but looking to get back into it, back then there wasn't anything like this .. I would imagine golf can be even more fun now we have all this at our fingertips (literally) 🎉
This is very true. Sometimes I score my game at the end on the phone, but I think if you are really striving to improve your game, you need to get the stats!
My only concern is the length of time “some players” will spend faffing about with this on every shot on every hole. Play is slow enough already where I play
I don't think checking yardages is what's holding up your course. In fact, it's faster to check yardages on an app then looking around on the ground for a sprinkler head or marker. The problem generally is, when people are taking 5 minutes a shot AND taking 6 shots to every green. That's what grinds it all to a halt. You all know exactly who you are!
EXCELLENT video/review. Could you also detail which features require membership vs what is free? The App Store's listing isn't totally clear. For me, I want to keep score, know distances, track shots, etc, so that I have history of what my trends are. I love the stats part of the video, just want to know what is an expense vs what is free/included. I'm trying to decide between an Apple Watch/TheGrint vs Garmin S42/62. I intend to use whatever watch/app as a golf watch, not really for other functions, so trying to decide... Thanks very much!
For me, its The Grint as an all around winner. Its so easy to use, and the social features are great. B ut you need to get the paid version for the best experience.
Can you please make a video on how to set up and play in tournament play mode where everyone can see each other score even if you’re not in the foursome that is keeping score.I think it’s called leaderboard. I tried to do it this past Sunday but it only kept the scores of the guys that I was playing with and not the other guys that I entered in our foursome. Thank you very much
What a great video , love the camera angles, music brilliant.. informative and professional.. is the ‘grint’ app a paid app ? Is there a basic version? 😉🏌️♂️⛳️🍻
It stays on most of the time, but sometimes you need to go back and open it again. Could be frustrating sometimes. There might be a setting we can change, but I have not figured out yet.
I think if you just use the simple stats, its definitely usable. Especially if you are playing a match and multiple flights, you can actually all see each others scores in realtime :P
It would have helped if you would have actually shown how to use shot tracker (for example) instead of just talking about it and telling your partner that you did it.
