CloPinz is the modern way to run Closest-to-the-Pin (CTP) contests on the golf course — live, accurate, and fully mobile. Whether you’re hosting a tournament or group, managing a golf course, or just playing with friends, CloPinz replaces tape measures, stakes, paper leaderboards, and manual scoring with an accurate, smartphone-based measurement and live leaderboard system. CloPinz is the better and easier way to run your on-course CTP contests.
CloPinz uses your phone’s camera and our proprietary smart-measurement system to determine the distance from the hole to the ball on the green.
CloPinz automatically detects the hole and the ball, then calculates the distance before you record your CTP attempt and post it to the leaderboard.
See who’s leading in real time — from the tee box, the green, the clubhouse, or even at home.
LITERALLY ANY GOLFER :
FOR THE PLAYER - The CloPinz measurement tool allows you measure the distance from any golf ball on the green to the pin in seconds with accuracy down to the fraction of an inch. For just $10 per year, any golfer can have unlimited access to the magic of the CloPinz measurement capabilities.
FOR THE GROUP / TOURNAMENT HOST – There is no better way to run a Closest-To-The-Pin Competition than by using CloPinz. Subscribe to a group plan for less than the cost of one golf ball per month and experience the future of CTP/KP/NTP Competitions. Skip the need to have to rely on the golf course to set up clunky hardware for you and set up your next KP/CTP with CloPinz. The app offers easy contest creation, seamless invites for an unlimited number of players, accurate measurements, and live leaderboards that will make your next CTP/KP/NTP competition the talk of the awards party. We’ve seen it time and time again.
FOR THE GOLF COURSE – Imagine a world where when one of your tournament hosts sends you an email requesting CTPs on holes 5, 8, 12, and 17 and your golf course being able to set up that contest in under 30 seconds. That’s what CloPinz offers and it can save a course up to 200 hours per year. Customer requests the contests and instead of cutting paper, gathering tape measures, getting the stakes, and driving it to all ends of the earth, you go to the dashboard and set it up the contests in seconds. You shoot the customer a link that they can send to their players. The contest is ready to go. Nobody has to worry about taking hardware out, nobody has to worry about picking it up. The customer gets a way better CTP/KP/NTP experience.
In addition to setting up contests for your group, CloPinz allows the golf course to set up CTP competitions for every single player who plays their course during a given day. It takes under 30 seconds and it’s awesome! Customize and print our stock Daily Competition Flyer, put it in a plastic sign holder on your counter, and use a magic erase marker to put in each day’s four-digit join code. Your customers will love the added fun!

CloPinz makes this very simple. Each contest created has a unique link and code. The app allows the host to send that link and code through email or text to all players. They simply click it, enter the app, and they’re in the contest.
