I released a free practice app! (Part 2)

I built a free iPhone app called "Window Golf".

I made it for myself to use on the range. Then I figured it would be fun to actually put something in the App Store.

Good ballstriking hinges on two things. Solid contact and finishing the ball as close to your target line as possible.

One way I like to practice is by picking a club and seeing how many shots I can keep inside a "window." With driver, that window might be 40 yards wide. Everything inside counts. Everything outside doesn't.

The problem is I like to switch targets while I practice, and eyeballing a 40-yard window at a new target is hard so I built the app to help with that.

There are also three combines built in. Driver, 6 iron, and pitching wedge. Ten shots each. The app sets your starting window width based on your handicap index, then adjusts as you go. If you perform well the window will automatically get narrower. Struggle and the window will automatically get wider.

It works on the course too. Say your target off the tee is 38 yards right of the OB stakes. Set your window to 76 yards wide, hold up your phone, line up the left edge with the OB line, and now you can see exactly where 38 yards right actually is. Same idea works for approach shots.

iPhone only for now. Not sure if I'll ever build an Android version.

Give it a try and let me know what you think. The app is free. Requires no credit card. Requires no email address. Just download, enter your handicap, and start using it.
