Apple's Ad Catapults Golfshot's Popularity.

RENO, Nev. -- Golfshot, the wildly popular Golf GPS and Scorecard app for golfers, has skyrocketed to one of the top apps for Apple's iPhone thanks to being featured by Apple in its recent commercial targeting sports fans.

Golfshot, released less than four months ago on May 20, is ranked in the top 5 for all paid sports apps and in the top 100 of the roughly 70,000 apps on the Apple App Store. Golfshot, which has received a 4.5 star rating out of 5 by users at the Apple App Store, has soared in popularity and use in both the United States and Europe.

Golfshot allows users to score and compare rounds while viewing detailed game analysis that includes the number of fairways hit, sand saves and scoring percentages.

The recently released Apple iPhone commercial highlights Golfshot's GPS range-finding ability and aerial views with TouchPoint technology. Golfshot has more than 15,000 courses available for its users. To see the national ad, which is called "Avid" and first promotes Golfshot and then baseball's MLB.com and a 3D tennis game, go to www.apple.com/iphone/gallery/ads/.
