The United States Golf Association is pleased to present the official iPhone application for the 2010-2011 editions of The Rules of Golf and Decisions on The Rules of Golf, as well ...
Just updated but failed to add iPhone X support             Solid app jvalley18
The app is great Easy access to the rules                     Great app Fkn cops
Great app for rule enforcement and learning                     Great app H.A. Young
This app is a must have                     Must Have InBlessWeTrust
While the publication of the Rules alone is pretty straightforward In use the Decisions often are needed Having a cross referenced Index for the Decisions would be extremely helpful You ve already done the work in the print edition Please add it to the App             The App requires an Index for the Decisions Sdrgolfer
This is a great app Very useful to find and decipher the rules                     Rules are there to help stanwgg
Search easy to read etc I d recommend that the app allow you to see the proposed rules in a different section as opposed to finding that information elsewhere on the USGA site                     Exactly what you expect SoupJr
I am a rules official for a PGA Section and frequently use this app because it lets yo move between references with a simple touch and then you can go back to where you were with another touch I wish it also had a way to listen in audio                     Great app ogofpro13
If you play golf this has to be on your phone                     Need to have Jmg765
Great tool I volunteer with junior golf groups and having the rules handy on my phone is extremely effective                     Volunteer RulesRookie
Almost as needed as your clubs Really helps out when a rules expert is wrong A must have                     Great Novicecardplayer
Great tool to use Very easy to use                     Review hacker john
Great app User friendly after a little practice                     Handy reference WSS_29
Great app easy to navigate very nice for on the course quick reference                     Golf rules compact Hugo Golfin
Great app highly recommend it                     Rules of golf for iPad benjook
Great tool for rules study Only thing missing is an index as in the hardcover Decisions book That would help                     AH AL AH-AL
This app contains the full text of the USGA R A rules organized to quickly access the rule for any situation on the course Very handy and easy to use I also recommend the optional companion Decisions module which aids in the interpretation of the rules and how they are applied                     Highly Recommend MX$1
Great interface with this app Happy with it                     Peliman Kokopeli-4
I love this App Very helpful and very easy to navigate                     Great app Haddad9921
Whenever there is a dispute requiring a decision the relative decision is found by the time the user of the decision book just found the index It is hard to understand that the paper book is still being issued especially now there are more in between updates                     Why is the decision book still being used DutchGolf
Keyword searching is best feature Wish at times it was more inclusive or intuitive to scenarios Altogether better than the old rule book Love that the Decisions book is inside the same interface                 Fast great for coaches LibraryTechie
Has provided quick resolutions to disputes                 Handy Ali Mnisi
Since I always have my phone with me I now have a rule book with me                     Handy 4thgreen
Mirrors the rules and decisions which is good However they removed the Contents to Index part and rely on the search capability which is terrible Need to put this back in as it was in the previous release         USGA Golf App Current Rules Official
Why no Index Previous versions had a Index which is so essential Search function is not a substitute Bad     NO INDEX Irish54 forever
Love this app Thank you USGA                     Awesome App urobro
All the rules and decisions are here and it is easy to find the appropriate ruling It helps to know a bit about how the rules are organized The search function is handy                     Easy to use Dykef
As someone entering into the PGA professional program this is a great resource to have on all my devices in the pro shop                     Love it abernardi705
Found the app extremely useful while coaching middle school players                     Coach Thorp's
This app is great Perfect for on the course rulings Decisions section are great for a deeper understanding of a specific rule                     Wonderful App mjsully999
Easy to use on both iPhone and iPad Good resource on the Rules and more convenient than stuffing the book in your pocket Only improvement would be a more robust search function use of AND and OR functions etc                     Great app NDTX
Great to have while on the course or anywhere should a rules question arise                     Highly Recommend DS4451
Need a ruling This app is the way to go It even includes years of golfing decisions in the Decision portion for live incidents and scenarios relative to the rules There are some links to videos demonstrating the application of some of the most breached rules to the USGA website It is very easy to navigate and is updated as needed                     Rules Rule Mccuney
As an active Rules official I used to keep a copy of the Decisions book with me whenever I travelled I now use the app and find the more I use it the easier it is to use The addition of an index would be nice but the search feature works fairly well                     USGA Rules of Golf Macomfs
Whether I m on the course and need a quick glance at the rules or prepping for the annual USGA rules exam it s great to have this app on my phone and iPad All the Rues and Decisions at your fingertips                 Great app to have TwBurhans
I cannot read anything but the table of contents The links do not work including the email address to the app developer I guess Ill just break all the rules     Doesnt open the book
Download app had it work once for me Now I can only move around in the table of content Whats up with that        Does not work
I already paid for the app and still cant access decisions        Fix access to decisions please
Very hard to find the rules        Difficult finding rules
The app doesnt work If you try to get support you cant find it Efforts to contact the USGA through their webpage only results in a message saying server down No stars     Garbage
Have lightened my golf bag by 2 lbs Easy clear and right on hand                 Rules of Golf app
Almost useless in the sun on a golf course where its usually most needed Hard to see plus when you search on an item all you get is a listing of the applicable rule numbers Then you have to open them one by one to find they arent what you are looking for If you have a rules issue and only this app plan on adding 10 15 minutes to your round time Not sure how someone here lightened their bag by 2 lbs unless they were carrying a copy of the Decisions and a few beers to drink while they looked something up Ill take the little rules booklet any day as its where I usually wind up to find what Im looking for after abandoning the app in frustration     iPhone App
iTunes says it is downloaded but icon on my iPad says it is waiting cant pull up the app at all     usga rules
Poorly done Not a universal app Decisions removed after last update     Stars continue to drop
Does not work at all Search feature goes nowhere Instructions say press the go buttonthere is no go button I would give it zero stars but that is not possible Less than useless due to its frustration level     Waste of time
I purchased this app some time ago I tried to update the app for 99 cents and was unable to accomplish the update I kinda feel stuck It appears you cannot update the app until 2016 so decisions which are changed annually are not updated in the app Kind of disappointing           Golfer
Will be 5 stars once an iPad version is added Thanks              Great App Need iPad Version
Nice to have a app finally on the confusing rules of golf The search area is jumpy and fails half the time on my IP5 I just looked up ball moving at address Part of the rule says ok and another part says a penalty Which is it The game is a folly for sure        Got some bugs
This app rocks Used it today several times                 Thanx
Love being able to have the rules on my phonepad Having the decisions linked is a big plus as I study to begin volunteering as a rules official What I would love to see is a much stronger search function Also the searches need to be accurate For example look up must not be cleaned Only two of the three occurrences come up when you do the search I would also like to be able to search for multiple separate words that may be anywhere in a rule or decision For example lost ball and provisional ball I would like to see rules decisions with both Keep up the good work           Great but needs work
This latest update gives me nothing but a blank white screen Tried to delete and reload same deal Sure fixed some bugs in this version I need this app to work for officiating events this weekend     Doesnt work at all
Get a message saying have to buy again but cant get to a place where I can do this              Cant access decisions
This is a great app to use especially for settling the all too common is that legal disputes when out golfing Beautiful design and works great on iOS 7                 Beautiful Design Great App
Not sure why its so low rated Must have had bugs but they seem worked out now                 Great app
What a great update fit perfectly on iOS7                 Love it
It oftne wont load a rule when Im going from page to page to find the correct ruling really frustrating having to go to the book after starting with the app           Handy but not dandy
There is no way to get the supposed 99 upgrade It is a cheat A fraud I use the term in its legal sense FRAUD        upgrade is a fraud
Crummy app Doesnt respond     Rick
Paid for full access over a year ago and now you guys want another 199 to restore what I already paid for Give me a break How about I delete the app and you guys give ME my money back     Nonsense
I really like the app and bought it before the 2012 rules came out Even though Im supposed to be able to update it to 2012 for 99 I cant find a way to do ittried itunes on my computer update on my iphone4 but it just shows as already purchased the appgrrrrr              Like it but cant update
This app is great to keep updated with the rules It has links to similar rulings and the key words Good to me Yes you get the rule book but the decisions cost Problem favorites are in a weird order Its not how I saved them or in the order of rules which Id prefer also they keep deleting on me after not using the app for awhile           Good app 2 Problems
I like this app on my iPhone but would really like it to be iPad compatible as well I officiate tournaments and it would be much easier to use if it was a full iPad app              Good on iPhone not so much on iPad
I can not get the Decisions back after the recent update The in app purchase doesnt work How can we get them I am not even able to pay for them again        No Decisions
Just updated Got same blank blank screen Delete and reinstall did not help Ever heard of a Quality Control testing     Does not work
Will no longer open Blank white screen Worked when originally purchased     USGA Rules of Golf
So after I already bought and paid for the app a long time ago your asking me to pay again for the decisions     Crap
Love the app and will use it on the course as well as at home I downloaded the iPhone app on my iPad and at first it was the size of an iPhone screen Then I accidentally enlarged it by dragging a finger across the screen Directions would have been nice but I will never complain about a happy accident Pass this info along to other IPad folks You CAN use iPhone apps on the IPad Thanks duhgolfer                 Works on my IPad 2
Why wont you respond to our request Weve already paid for the app Now you want us to pay again to access the Decisions even though you claim no payment is necessary Cmon USGA fix the problem     Fix the Decisions Bug
Why have a rules of golf app which does not show the rules Dont bother with the download     Junk
In depth information on the rules of golf Thanks USGA                 Informative
The app is an excellent replacement for old rule books I used to carry I no longer have to replace my rule book every time a rule is added or changed The 199 for the decisions is very reasonable and a must for all serious golfers                 A Must for Every Golfer
Why wont the USGA update this app to allow purchased decisions to be used on all devices Especially when the app itself says you can     Cannot access decisions
Awesome app rules decisions all in one Great deal                 Nice
Ok I finally caved and paid for the Decisions a second time I had already bought the rules including the decisions before USGA removed the decisions forcing me to pay twice or have only half the rules In equity thats a rules violation Sure not much money but still           Paid 2x for the Decisions
Needs an update so screen fills out to larger iPhone 5 size              Good but needs ios 6 update
It would be nice to have the rules on my phone however most of the sections do not open on my iPhone 6 Plus It seems like a waste to have an application it does not function correctly Why release it before its ready     Work needed
Great app                 Great app
Beautiful design works great and love the fact you can look at the decisions also                 Nick
Downloaded twice Little content No content in actual rules Dont waste your time until they fix it     Waste of time
It wont allow a search on an iPhone 5 Its jumpy and is slightly lacking in information Its neat but needs to have the support to work properly        Bugs galore
You can thumb through the paper version of the Rules of Golf faster than you can load the pages to your device Give me a search feature and Id be interested        Since its not interactive you might as well carry the book
Moving through the rules and decisions is cumbersome The regular online version of The Decisions is much better This app needs some work           Fair at best
This app used to include access to the rule decisions with no additional purchase Ill probably just go back to using the websitewas a 5 star app prior to this update now only 2        No more decisions
Where is the iPad version Running the iPhone version at 2X is not very satisfying Cant be an issue of money or technology Im spending 1000 300 to USGA to attend your Rules seminar Lets upgrade this app Thanks        Mike
The app has now been fixed to recognize if you previously purchased a license for the Decisions and allows access without purchasing again              Can no longer access Decisions even when purchased
