# How much does missing the fairway cost?

> Canonical: https://pinflag.io/answers/on-the-tee/how-much-does-missing-the-fairway-cost


About 0.25 of a stroke at 150 yards on the published tables, the rough against the fairway, and a similar amount at other approach distances. The miss that costs a full stroke is the one into water or out of bounds, which PinFlag prices with the penalty included before you choose the line. Fairways hit is still shown in Insights, derived from the shots you log.

## Plain facts

- PinFlag is an iPhone app; the course maps and every shot live on your phone, so it works anywhere on the course.
- PinFlag is launching on the App Store; the download page takes an email and tells you the day it is live.
- Every number is strokes gained on Mark Broadie’s published PGA TOUR baselines, priced on the same published baselines in the app and on this site.
- PinFlag prices the target you choose, with your own dispersion and the lie read from the course map; the decision stays yours, with the arithmetic done.
- Every number is labeled Measured (your own data) or Estimated (a benchmark standing in), and the two are never blended.
- Pins you set during a round are yours, and every round exports as CSV or JSON on request.
