Sitting at work on a Friday, I opened up my golf app to find my friend on hole 8.  “Wait, how am I seeing his live scorecard? And did he just double bogey the last two holes?”  Golf apps have come a long way - beyond GPS and hazard locations.  We now have the ability to see our friends live in action, watching scores post as the round progresses.  This is genius.  And it get’s better.  This is the best free golf app - reviewed by dads.  The Best Free Golf App in 2021What makes 18Birdies the best free golf app?  Free GPS for starters.  Rangefinders still serve an important role on the course - but in our tests we found 18Birdies to be within 5 yards for all tests, often coming in within 1-2 yards.  18Birdies also hosts one of the most fun features you haven’t explored: Tournament Scoring.  The free tournament scoring feature is FREE and allows any user to setup a custom tournament.  It’s so easy we are going to set one up for listeners - why?  For fun.  I tested it in my recent casual group and here is why it works...We had two foursomes playing for money.  These groups are competitive and want to see how scoring is taking place.  And when I look back to find my buddy in the water - I want to see his score post live.  18Birdies Golf App offers that ability.  18Birdies HandicapMy second favorite free feature on 18Birdies is their estimated handicap.  I have several friends who sparingly play golf (less than 5 rounds per year) - when it comes time to setup a friendly tournament it is near impossible to place them fairly.  If they use 18Birdies it will estimate a rough handicap.  My estimated handicap is higher than my actual handicap, but it’s close enough (within .50 points).  This is especially useful for any golfers who don’t want to purchase a GHIN membership.  Also in this episode: Putting DebateThe chicken or the egg.  In the putting debate - do you think line or distance is more important?  We discuss which is more important.  And like always on Birdie Dads, we disagree.  Luckily there are 3 dads and someone always loses.  With a 2-1 vote we can put to rest which part of your putting game needs to come first.  Do you like free golf stuff?
