PGA TOUR Golf Shootout

Really like this game - play it more than just about anything. However, there are two somewhat ridiculous flaws in it. Flaw #1: how can a game that is endorsed by the PGA not score properly? Penalty shots for loss balls aren’t counted so you can blast two balls out of bounds, hit a third onto a green, and put in for a par on a par four. Flaw #2: while it’s fun to do, it’s a little ridiculous that as you level up in clubs, you can drive the ball consistently 450 to 500 yards. Would be nice if club distances were a little bit more realistic.

I’ve tried every game on the App Store and this one is my favorite. I like that I get to use whatever club I want regardless of the distance to the hole which is a shortcoming of many apps. I also like ability to manipulate your bag to maximize accuracy or distance. Shortcoming - upgrading clubs is maddeningly slow if you don’t want to spend real money in the web store
