How the 360 score works

Ask a disc golfer how their putting is going and you'll get a shrug. Ask a Perfect Putt 360 player and you'll get a number. Here's where that number comes from — and why it's worth trusting.

The format

A full game is two rounds of five stations. Normal runs the stations from 10 to 30 feet, and Lite uses that same ladder when you just want a quick warmup round. Pro pushes it out to 20–40 feet.

At each station you throw ten putts — five in Lite — and log every make and miss, station by station, no fudging.

Where the points come from

  • Every make counts. Each made putt adds to your station score.
  • Bonuses reward pressure putts. Drop your first putt of a run (First In), your last (Last In), or sweep the whole station (All Made) and you bank bonus points on top.
  • The bonuses grow with the distance. Sweeping the 10-footer is worth 5; sweeping the last station is worth 25.
  • The last station counts double. The scorecard marks it — it's where rounds are won and lost.

Add up both rounds and you get one score with a hard ceiling of 360. Lite is a single round, so its ceiling is 150 — the same game, half the grind.

Why one number matters

Because it's repeatable. Same stations, same format, every time — so a 212 this month against a 187 last month is real improvement, not a good day at a short basket. The app charts every game, so the trend line does the talking.

Keep the distances honest

The whole system leans on stations being where they claim to be. Use Measure to lay them out with your camera — AR does the math and your 10-footer is actually ten feet.
