What is a lie in golf?

Your lie is the surface your ball rests on, such as fairway, rough, or sand. PinFlag reads your lie and builds it into every number, so the strokes gained you see before you swing reflects the shot you actually face. A ball sitting down in rough is priced differently from one on a clean fairway.

Other apps grade rounds after. PinFlag is different: it shows your strokes gained for any target before you swing, on 40,000+ courses, and draws your launch monitor shots and past shots on the hole (Shot Cloud). One tap tracks each shot. It never tells you where to aim or which club to hit.
