# The golf app for beginners

A beginner’s strokes go to penalties, three putts and doubles, and breaking 100 needs no pars at all: nine bogeys and nine doubles is 99. PinFlag suits a beginner who wants to learn course management from the first round: two taps log a shot, the lie is read from the course, the number shows which target is the safer play before the swing, and a handicap level lens reads the round on a beginner’s scale rather than a tour player’s.

## Key figures

- On the benchmark model a 30 handicap gives up 31 strokes a round to the tour average, 20.2 in the long game, 6.2 in the short game and 4.7 putting.
- Golfer is $14.99 a month or $99.99 a year with every feature included and a 14-day trial on the annual plan; Coach is $80 a month for up to ten students; Facility is $299 a month.

## Scope

- The handicap figures are the site’s benchmark model, Broadie’s published shares applied to the strokes over the tour average; every product claim describes the shipped iPhone app.
