Do you feel the ground trembling? That tremor is created by the stampede of golfers, scrambling to secure a tee time at a SmartPin Partner Facility. 

SmartPin is a patent pending, golf flagstick with a brain that talks to the internet. SmartPin is activated by a mobile phone and cameras built into SmartPin provide video evidence of prize-winning golf shots. 

SmartPin is challenging the status quo in the golf industry. Utilizing state of the art technology developed specifically for SmartPin, the traditional golf flagstick has been transformed into an autonomous, 360-degree video capturing smart device. The potential uses of SmartPin are endless. Imagine being able to challenge your golfing buddies from across the country. 

World’s Largest Golf Competition

Ace Golf Technologies, LLC, developer of SmartPin, has been establishing a national network of participating golf courses where individual golfers participate simply with a few clicks on the SmartPin app. The company envisions golfers scattered across America, and eventually around the World, competing daily for major prizes. Daily SmartPin winners receive all or a share of a steadily growing pool of jackpot prizes. Each daily winner, plus qualifiers through participation, earns a spot in the multi-stage year end SmartPin Million Dollar Shootout.

Three Ways To Win Every Day With SmartPin!

SmartPin National Progressive Hole-In-One Jackpot

Play any par 4 or par 5 in the world, and you are bound to have many different intended target lines depending on the golfer’s ability. However, go to any par 3 on the planet, and if you asked any golfer where he or she was aiming, undoubtedly the answer will be the same, “I am aiming at the pin!” Golfers never know when that hole-in-one is coming! 

Every time a golfer participates in the SmartPin competition, he or she can win big. SmartPin competitions are open to amateur golfers, and there is no handicap limit or requirement. So, unless you are a professional golfer, this means you! SmartPin players who make an ace, win the National Progressive Hole-In-One Jackpot. In the event of multiple aces made the same day, the jackpot is split evenly. 

In addition, all winning shots will be forever immortalized in a complimentary souvenir video of the shot captured by SmartPin, which comes from literally the best seat in the house, from inside of the pin just a few inches above the hole. The personalized video will be easily shared and be the perfect way to ensure your friends, family, and for that matter, the golfing world never forget. One recent SmartPin golfer commented, “I would rather have the video of my hole-in-one than the money!”

The National Progressive Hole-In-One Jackpot starts at $10,000 and grows each day that a hole-in-one is not made.  As the network of SmartPin Partner Facilities expands, the base jackpot will increase.  Within the year, Hole-In-One Jackpots are projected to start at $50,000.

In addition, every golfer who makes a hole-in-one during the year earns a bye through the Local Qualifying Round directly into the Sectional Qualifying Round of the SmartPin Million Dollar Shootout.  More on that a bit later…

SmartPin Gimme Game

In recent years, “Big Hole Competitions” have become very popular, and the reaction from golfers is usually overwhelmingly positive. In that vein, the SmartPin Gimme Game increased the target to an area slightly bigger than 6 feet in diameter! In your golfing lifetime, how many aces would you have made if the hole was actually 6’ wide? 

In the Gimme Game, when the golf ball comes to rest, SmartPin automatically validates if it is within the 36” radius of the lip of the cup. 

Each Gimme Game winner receives a gift certificate from the golf course where the ‘gimme’ was made. In addition to the certificate, every Gimme Game winner receives personalized souvenir video of his winning shot for them to share with members of their golf group and family. Similarly, to the National Progressive Hole-In-One Jackpot, if no one knocks it close, the Gimme Game Jackpot will continue to grow! The Gimme Game will start in conjunction with the launch of the $5 paid entry.

SmartPin Million Dollar Shootout

The third opportunity for each participant to win big is by qualifying for the yearlong SmartPin Million Dollar Shootout. Ace Golf appreciates the golfers who support the SmartPin competition. Participating golfers who didn’t make a hole-in-one or knock or knock their ball to Gimme Game distance, still may qualify for the Million Dollar Shootout, simply by participating multiple times. Golfers that take 20 SmartPin shots during the year earn one shot in the first round of the Shootout, called Locals. Play 40 shots and earn two shots. Play 60 shots and earn three shots etc.  For those looking to fast track their way into the playoffs, they simply need to take a SmartPin shot at ten unique SmartPin Partner Facilities throughout the year to earn a birth in the Locals.

SmartPin Million Dollar Shootout participants will advance to the Sectionals, and then Nationals, based on how close to the pin they hit their SmartPin playoff shot. Ultimately, the SmartPin Million Dollar Shootout National Finals will bring together twenty amateur golfers. Each will have earned a coveted invitation to the SmartPin Million Dollar Shootout. After a day of golf and a Champions’ Dinner hosted by Ace Golf, the National Finalists will gather the following morning, and each will take a shot at a $1,000,000 hole-in-one. Even if there is not a hole-in-one made, Win, Place, and Show prizes will be awarded to the closest to the SmartPin. Every golfer in the SmartPin Million Dollar Shootout will receive a souvenir video of their life changing shot.

Free SmartPin Test Drive

Through the month of June, golfers may take a FREE shot at the SmartPin during every round they play at a SmartPin golf course. If they make an ace, they will win $1,000 prize. Best of all, golfers can use the Free Test Drive attempts to qualify for the Inaugural SmartPin Million Dollar Shootout.    

You read that correctly. Golfers who participate will be closer to qualifying for the Inaugural SmartPin Million Dollar Shootout. Even though no entry fee was paid, golfers who make an ace will advance the Sectionals, and as a result, be just one swing away from making it to the National Finals and the opportunity to win $1,000,000.

Earlier this month, a Minnesota golfer made a hole-in-one at a SmartPin Test Drive participating golf course, on the hole with a SmartPin! However, he did not use his free SmartPin shot. Asked after the round why he didn’t participate, he simply said, “I never imagined it would go in!”
