PinFlag Combines

A PinFlag Combine is a fixed set of stations — Full Bag, Scoring Clubs, or Putting — scored rep by rep through the same frozen strokes-gained engine as a real round, then rolled into a single 0–1000 index anchored to tour average at 500. Because it's scored in strokes gained, you can benchmark against tour, scratch, or any handicap level without a GHIN account.

The PinFlag iOS app is in pre-release. Leave your email and we’ll tell you the moment it’s available.

1
Choose a template
Full Bag is 8 stations covering every strokes-gained category, from a par-4 drive down to a 6-foot putt. Scoring Clubs drops the driver for 6 stations focused on wedges, short irons, and putting. Putting Combine is 4 putting-only stations at increasing lengths. All three are fixed and versioned, so a score today stays comparable to a score months from now.
2
Play each station
Each station is a fixed lie, distance, and shot type — for example, a 150-yard approach from the fairway — played for a set number of reps. Every rep is scored the same way a real shot is: through the frozen strokes-gained engine, not a separate skills-test formula.
3
Understand your combine index
Your stations roll into one 0–1000 index, anchored so a tour-average performance scores 500 — built from the same four strokes-gained categories as your rounds, just concentrated into one focused test.
4
Benchmark without a handicap
Because the index is strokes-gained-based, PinFlag compares your combine result against tour, scratch, or any handicap level using Broadie's published baselines — no GHIN or WHS account needed. The comparison is labeled an estimate: turning per-rep results into a per-round comparison uses a modeled shots-per-round figure, not an actual full round you played.
5
How your score is labeled
PinFlag tags every combine attempt with how it was verified. Honor (self-reported) is what ships first and is always flagged as self-reported on any shared view; Witnessed and Sim-verified levels build on the same system for later, so a self-reported score is never presented with the same confidence as a verified one.
