Par 72 Golf App Reviews

After playing it for a while, I have knocked it down to 2 stars. There is no control for spin or slice, only power. It is probably the best golf game I have played on a phone, but I was hoping for more.

I thought that this was a very good game. I dont want a game to be over complicated after all it is an iphone or touch. I found it simple and very fun. But I could see as an update if the camera followed the ball and you could use the accelerometer to control spin, but there would have to be a button on the side that when you pushed it if would ignore the accelerometer. (sorry about my name i use my parents account)

The game itself has a lot of potential. It gets easier with every game I play. A few things I would like to see. The ability to spin the ball would be cool. Great app though. I like it.

this game is great, very real, good sounds, best golf game for the touch. only problem is no spin or slice but you can live with that.

worth every penny! a must buy for any golfer

A must for golf fans. Go get it, worth every penny.

Very good game for the palm of your hand!!!

Good but could be better - add some functionality please!! Like back spin and better putt force and more.....

Every single green is a Turtle Back design, very annoying when you reach the green in regulation and, have it roll off the other side, make some flat like real golf and it will be good.

Its a pretty good game to waste time, but it needs more courses. I dont think there has ever been an update for smoother gameplay or anything.

I would like to be able to see scores other than when game is over and also sometimes forget which course I was playing so at end dont know which score I just posted to the list. Also would be great to see "HOLE IN ONE!" instead of eagle. I know technically it is am eagle but still. As for comments about turtle back green and make easier. Give me a break buddy if you eagled every hole how challenging would the game be? I like the hard ones except there is one par 3 further than driver can reach. Only way to get on is bouncing off edge of bunker. Looking fforward to seeing more courses added but GREAT job guys!

Great game, but would be nice to be able to spin the ball. Also, a little more consistency in the distance would be good. It would be great if there was way to determine the distance for a layup (even real golfers have range finders). I too would like other greens beside turtle backs. I know its just a iPOD, but if you can make it this good, it can be better. All in all a very enjoyable game. I wouldnt want to make it better if I didnt like it. :)

I was read that who say "no eagle" WHOA I did hit EAGLE once! Yahoo! Maybe happens once while. : ) This golf is not bad. I did control hit under 72! I am wait for called "Tiger Wood 09".

Its OK for $5.00. Too bad you cant stick a green with a short iron though.

I am not sure if the people who created this game were ever on a real golf course. Let me assure you, there are no MOUNTAINS on real golf courses especially in the middle of the fairway.

Granted its not as good as GL Golf which is a lot like EA Tiger Woods Golf, but I liked playing this on my deceased palm pilot, and they did a great job re-creating it. That is the ONLY reason I paid the 7 bucks or whatever for it. It may be worth taking a flyer at 2 dollars if you like golf games, but when it goes back up in price, dont bother, just get GL Golf instead. I think this is one of those developers that is used to charging a premium for palm device games, and have priced themselves right out of the market here at the apple store.

Needs head to head or versus a.i.!!!! Needs better sound Otherwise great game, youd get a 5 if you had characters and versus

I guess you get what you pay for. More courses would be nice. Why do all the holes and all the courses have tabletop greens! Get creative guys, come on. Would be nice if had different club manufacturer selections and hit meter to allow draws and fades. Also this is the era of Xbox360 and PS3 and PSP, please update the Graphics Graphics Graphics!!! This looks and plays like an 80s atari game.

I have the free edition of this game and the paid edition($1.99) not much difference....same game ...I like it a lot better then IGolf. This game is easy to use and it is fun. I would not pay more then $1.99!

Originally I rated 4 stars believing the developer would patch obvious problems with this game. Its ashame, it had potential. Big problems too, like being able to play the ball wherever it is, even out of bounds. Ball physics are broken. I gave this game two stars, I wish I could give it a double-bogey.
