@BR3NTON3 I was able to run Golfshot using the powersave mode for entire 18 hole rounds on an iPhone 3G before being left with 20% battery after the round... I've yet to try out the battery life on my new iPhone 4.
Check what you're running in the background, notifications, bluetooth, wifi.
@deekay1911 - Thanks for the tip - I think I did part of that... but will have to recheck my settings - as well as an update as I just updated all my Apps this a.m. and didn't see anything for that... Cheers
@BR3NTON3 There is a new update out for Golfshot - You can set a timeout for the GPS signal in the background - I have it on "never" in background and turn on the screen a couple of seconds before the next shot and have GPS instantly - had 68% battery left after 18 holes the other day.... Awsome program...
I just got the Golfshot app last weekend - and while nice and "cool" - even in powersave mode (per your manual) it sucked my battery dry in 8 holes on my 3GS -
That said, this one looks a little more user friendly - but can't see running them both - I wanna play golf, not fiddle with my iPhone for 5 mins per hole... Need to simplify the GUI some to speed up use and play - Otherwise, excellent products.
@pntballer83 no. you need a camera to do the augmented reality.

Nice app. Sometimes vid turns black at iOS4 and app needs restart. Accuracy of compass of 3GS is problematic though. Tried app at Opio (France).
