iPhone Apps - Range Finder
Hi Everyone,
I just purchased an iPhone and I am wondering what the best iPhone range finder apps are for playing courses in the Ottawa area?
I play most of my golf at:
Canadian
Greensmere
Cedarhill
Stonebridge
If you could please let me know the best iPhone range finder apps for playing these courses it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Not sure what you mean buddy, as the courses would be maped out. do you mean so you can draw a line between 2 points in google maps?

No just a rangefinder. Point at the flag at the range and get the distance to it. Don't trust their markings

Cant be done, the phone would require a laser to be able to hit the flag to give a reading.

SkyCaddie mapped out the range at Greensmere. It's listed as hole #D and seems accurate. Don't know about the other courses. I believe they have an app for Iphone as well where you use their data and your equipment. Don't know the cost, though.

I use the GolfLogix app for iPhone. If you just want yardages to the middle of the green, you can get that free. But its completely worth the $20/year (or so) for full yardages (front/middle/back of green, points of interest, layups, hazards, etc) and stats tracking. I did a quick check and all the courses you listed are on there.
In my experience it is accurate is to within a couple of yards of the fancy, expensive laser range finders and comparable to dedicated GPS units.Wannabe Golf

Skydroid works really well and costs a onetime fee of $1.99.

If you are looking for a golf gps app go to android market. Skydroid works on both platforms and costs a one time fee of $1.99. Downside is that these apps are hard on the battery so make sure you have a full charge before hitting the course.
