You Don't Know Where You're Actually Losing Shots

Every amateur golfer has a vague idea of where their short game breaks down — "I think my chipping is fine," "my putting could be better." But without data, you're guessing. You practise the wrong things. You spend 80% of your time on the full swing when 60% of your shots happen inside 100 yards.

The Performance Hub ends the guesswork. 60 shots across every short game category, scored against benchmarks by handicap level, with a full breakdown of where your strokes are hiding.

One Session. Every Shot That Matters.

A single structured assessment that surfaces your Short Game Handicap and pinpoints where to focus your next four weeks of practice.

The Performance Hub test is a 60-shot assessment split across every part of your short game — putting from multiple distances, chipping, pitching, and wedge play. You hit the shots. The app scores them. At the end, you get a complete picture of your short game with benchmarks calibrated to your handicap level.

The output isn't just a score. It's a Short Game Handicap — a single number that represents your short game relative to handicap-level benchmarks — plus a separate Putting Handicap, a breakdown by category showing which areas cost you the most strokes, and a set of targeted recommendations for what to practise next.

Most golfers spend years grinding on the full swing while their actual scoring problem sits quietly around the green. The Performance Hub forces the truth to the surface in one session. You'll know exactly where your strokes are hiding and have a measurable target to lower.

Re-take the test every 4 weeks to see whether your practice is working. Your Short Game Handicap should drop. If it isn't moving, the app tells you which category is stuck and what to change.

5 Assessments. Full Short Game Coverage.

The main Performance Test plus four focused challenges — each scored, each timed, each calibrated against handicap-level benchmarks.

The Performance Test

60 shots across every short game category — putting from multiple distances, chipping, pitching, and wedge play. Generates your Short Game Handicap and a PDF report with recommendations.

Ultimate Putting Challenge

A full 30–35 minute putting assessment covering every distance and pressure scenario. Produces your Putting Handicap as a separate, dedicated metric.

Clutch Putt Challenge

A focused pressure putting test from 3–6 feet. Short, sharp, and honest — the make-or-miss distances that decide most scorecards.

Century Drill

100 putts from various distances. Volume meets structure — every putt scored against benchmarks, exposing trends your short sessions miss.

15-Minute Chipping Blitz

Timed pressure chipping drill. One club, zones at 5, 10, and 15 feet. Race the clock to see how your chipping holds up under real constraints.

PDF Report & Recommendations

After every Performance Test you get a downloadable PDF covering your scores, Short Game Handicap, section breakdown, and a prioritised list of what to work on next. Keep it for yourself or hand it to your coach.
