Closest to the pin. The simplest bet on the card: hit the tee shot that finishes closest to the flagstick on a par 3 and you win the CTP for that hole. Four par 3s, four chances to be the winner, no scorecard needed.
Walk up to a par 3, hit a tee shot, and if your ball is the closest one to the flag, you win. That's the whole game.
Pick a number, like $5. That's the per-CTP rate: every opponent in the foursome pays the CTP winner that amount for each par 3 they win. Win all four CTPs with three opponents at $5 each? $60 in the pocket.
You're playing for one thing on a par 3: distance to the flag. Most groups require the shot to finish on the green. Off the green and the next-closest on-green shot takes the CTP.
Walk up, eyeball it, or pace it off if it's tight. The closest ball wins outright. Step it off or pull a tape measure when the call's close.
Pick the player who won, hole's settled. Four par 3s, four winners. The pot adds up at 18.
FLOG ships with the standard rule: closest tee shot on a par 3 wins, paid per CTP per opponent. The variations below are common agreements groups apply at the first tee, not configurable toggles in the app today.
The tee shot has to finish on the putting surface. Off the green, no CTP, even if you're somehow closest. The most common rule and what most groups assume.
The closest ball wins, on or off the green. Common in casual rounds where most tee shots miss. Played-it-where-it-lies.
If no one hits the green and you're playing the on-green rule, the CTP rolls over to the next par 3. Next winner collects both. Stacks if multiple par 3s pass empty.
Instead of per-CTP per-opponent, everyone antes a fixed pot at the start and the player with the most CTPs at 18 takes the whole thing. Ties split. Simpler settlement.
On a par 3, every player gets a 📍 CTP pill on their score entry. Tap the winner, exclusive across the foursome, and the running total updates on the Summary tab.
The CTP picker. One winner per par 3, exclusive. Tap to commit, tap again to clear. Off-par-3 holes hide the chip entirely.
A round with four par 3s gives you four chances. Stiff one and you're playing house money the rest of the day. The mistake is bailing to the fat part of the green: the player taking dead aim at the flag is the one collecting CTPs.
FLOG's CTP pill is one tap, exclusive across the group, and the running total updates on the Summary tab the second you commit it.
