State-of-the-art mobile apps to advance your golf skills

There’s no denying that an increasing number of people from various backgrounds have taken full advantage of the enhanced capabilities of high-tech mobile gadgets like smartphones and tablets. Indeed, there’s a mobile app for pretty much everything these days – and golf is certainly no exception. 
With smartphone users growing by the year, it only makes sense for golf coaches to reach out to a broader market via mobile apps from Google Play and iTunes. Gaming Realms, the online gaming outfit behind pocketfruity.com, cites that smartphone users currently represent 17% of total mobile usage around the world. While there’s definitely no mobile app that can replace the individual tutelage of a personal golf trainer, it’s very convenient to know that something as simple as a smartphone can help improve your performance in different ways. 
Anyway, here just a couple of the many useful mobile apps for both aspiring and seasoned golfers.

Everyday Golf Coach HD 
Created by PGA Professional and Performance Coach Noel Rousseau, the Everyday Golf Coach HD app is a comprehensive system that allows you to improve your golf form, swing technique, and short game action skills through a wide variety of tools. For instance, there’s a golf swing analysis suite that features a complete model library and variable-speed playback that helps you analyze your own swing in extensive detail. What’s more, the app currently includes 38 HD coaching videos of experienced golfers that cover virtually every aspect of the game, ranging from sloping lies, shots from the rough, and everything else in between. 

Swing by Swing 
Swing by Swing is essentially a free GPS range finder that provides accurate and precise information regarding your distance from the hole – and it works on any golf course in the world. Naturally, you can also check out detailed satellite maps of golf courses at your own convenience. Moreover, the app provides a free digital scoreboard service with thorough score and putt tracking. You can use the digital scoreboard to keep tabs on your progress with graphs and stats.
