Master the art of touch: no more long comeback putts

Place two lines of 18 balls each near the green. Balls are 1 foot apart. Lines are 5 to 10 yards apart.

On the green, make a circle around the hole (6 feet radius) and divide it into 4 equal quadrants with string or markers.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots total, 9 shots at each quadrant.

For each set of 9 shots, aim to stop the ball inside one chosen quadrant.

Hit 4 or 5 shots in a row from one line, then switch to the other line and finish the 9 shots for that quadrant.

After 9 shots to one quadrant, move to the next quadrant and repeat the routine until all 4 quadrants have been used.

Count each ball that stops in the right quadrant as a success.

After all 36 shots, add up successful shots in the intended quadrants and enter score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Set up 36 balls in 9 piles of 4 balls each, in lines 5 to 10 yards apart next to the green.

Mark 9 stop zones on the green with buckets, string, or tees, in a line or grid.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots, 4 shots to each stop zone.

Keep piles in place and take turns hitting from different piles to each stop zone in order.

Count a success each time the ball stops in the right zone.

When all 36 shots are done, add up successful shots and enter the score in the app out of 36 attempts.

Set up 10 piles of balls in two crossed lines. Each line has 5 piles, 3 yards/meters apart.

Put the piles 1 to 10 yards/meters from the green and 5 to 30 yards/meters from the hole, on the same type of grass.

Mark 3 target zones on or near the green, spaced far apart.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots: 12 for each target zone.

Pick any pile and hit 12 balls, trying to land and stop the ball in the first target zone.

Hit 12 shots at the second target zone, then 12 at the third.

Keep the same ball setup for every shot. Don’t change ball position or lie in the pile.

Count each ball that stops in the target zone as a success.

At the end, enter the number of balls that stopped in the target zones out of 36.

Set up 10 piles of balls in 2 lines that cross each other, 5 piles in each line. Space the piles about 3 yards or meters apart.

Place the piles so they are 1 to 10 yards or meters from the green and 5 to 30 yards or meters from the hole, on any grass.

On the green, make 3 landing zones side by side, each about 6 feet or 2 meters apart, using sticks, clubs, or string.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots total. Aim 12 shots at each landing zone.

Pick a pile. Hit balls at the first landing zone until you do 12 shots.

Aim at the second landing zone for 12 shots from any piles.

Aim at the third landing zone for the last 12 shots.

Count how many shots land and stop in the right zone.

When all 36 shots are done, record the number of good shots out of 36 in the app.

Put 36 balls into 9 groups of 4 balls each around the green, spaced 1–10 yards from the edge and 5–30 yards from the hole.

Use string, tees, or markers to make 9 stop zones on the green, spread out as different landing spots.

Hit 4 bump-and-run shots at each stop zone, for a total of 36 shots.

Start at any group, aim at the first stop zone, hit 4 shots, then move to the next zone; repeat until all zones have been used.

Count each ball that stops inside the target zone as a success.
