1. Golfshot
Golfshot is the golfers' ultimate app to record every golf swing as an avid golfer. It has more than a million downloads on Google Play and at least four million members, which attest to its reputation as the go-to app for golfers of all skill levels.

Such a versatile app is best in phones with purpose-built casings like the Eagle 3 Magnetic Golf case. The Eagle 3 is ROKFORM’s latest case and is designed specifically for golfers. Instead of keeping your phone on the cup holder or a golf bag, you can place your phone on the cart for quick access.
