Turn Tough Lies into Easy Pars

Make 10 piles of 4 balls (40 balls) in two lines, crossing each other near the green, 1 to 10 yards from the green and 5 to 30 yards from the hole. Keep piles 2 yards apart, lines 5 to 10 yards apart.

On the green, use string or tees to mark two circles around the hole: one with a 6-foot radius (inner), the other with a 15-foot radius (outer).

Use only 36 balls (9 piles of 4) for this test.

Split the 36 shots into two groups of

For the first 18 shots, try to land the ball inside the small circle.

For the next 18 shots, try to land the ball inside the big circle but outside the small circle.

Play bump-and-run shots by hitting from different piles, one after the other, keeping the same setup and order.

Count as a success if the ball stops in the correct circle. If not, it is a miss.

Count how many balls finished where they should in both circles. Enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Prepare 36 balls in two sets of

Pick one uphill spot, 5-20 yards from the hole, for 18 tries.

Make three target zones on the green around the hole: left, center, right.

Hit 6 balls at each target zone in order: left, center, right.

Move to a downhill spot, 5-20 yards from the hole, and do the same.

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

After 36 tries (18 uphill, 18 downhill), add up your successful shots and enter your score in the app, out of 36.

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.

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.

Add up the number of successful shots out of 36 and enter the score in the app.

Put 36 balls into 6 piles of 6 balls each around the chipping area, between 1 and 10 yards from the green, and 5 to 30 yards from the hole.

On the green, make two rings around the hole with string or tees: a small ring with a 6-foot radius and a bigger ring with a 15-foot radius.

Split your shots into two groups of

For the first 18 shots, try to land the ball inside the small ring (6-foot radius).

For the next 18 shots, try to land the ball inside the big ring but outside the small ring.

Hit one ball at a time from any pile. Do 18 shots for the first target, then do 18 shots for the second target.

Count every ball that stops inside the target ring as a success.

After all 36 shots, add up how many landed in the right rings and enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Prepare 36 balls and make 4 piles of 9 balls each.

Put each pile in a different spot, 1 to 10 yards from the green and 5 to 30 yards from the hole.

Mark 4 areas on the green using string or tees, each area should be about 6 feet across.

Hit 36 bump-n-run shots, trying to land 9 balls in each area.

Start from one pile, aim at one area, and hit all 9 balls. Move to the next pile and area.

Keep going until all 36 shots are done, 9 shots per area.

Count how many balls stopped in the target area each time.

After all 36 shots, enter how many successes out of 36 in the app.

Put 40 balls into 8 piles of 5 balls each. Place the piles between 1 and 10 yards from the green and 5 to 30 yards from the hole.

On the green, use string or tees to make 4 equal sections inside a circle with a 6-foot radius around the hole.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots, split into 4 groups of 9 shots. Each group tries to stop the ball in a different section.

Choose any pile and hit 9 shots at the first section. Then do 9 shots for the next section, and repeat for all 4 sections.

For each set of 9 shots, use any pile, but keep the same setup for all shots.

Count each shot that stops in the correct section as a success.

Add up the number of successes and enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Put 2 rows of 20 golf balls each on flat grass near the green, 5 yards apart.

Make sure both rows are between 5 and 30 yards from the hole, and keep all balls on the fairway, not on the green.

Split the 36 shots into 3 groups of

First 12 shots, try to land the ball within 5 feet left of the hole.

Next 12 shots, try to land the ball within 5 feet right of the hole.

Last 12 shots, aim to land the ball in a 5-foot circle around the hole.

Hit every third ball from each row: start with one row (balls 1, 4, 7, etc.), then switch to the other row, and keep going until all 36 shots are done.

Count each ball that stops in the right target area as a success for that group.

When all 36 tries are finished, add the successful shots and enter your score in the app, out of 36.

Put the ball in the sloped rough, 5 to 30 yards from the hole, with the ball above your feet.

Place three targets evenly spaced left, center, and right of the hole, all about the same distance from your ball.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots: 18 with the ball above your feet and 18 with the ball below your feet.

For each lie, split the 18 shots into 3 groups of 6, one group for each target.

With the ball above your feet, hit 6 shots to the left target, 6 to center, and 6 to right, in any order.

Move the ball below your feet and repeat: 6 shots to left, 6 to center, 6 to right.

Count each shot that stops inside the target area as a success.

Add up your total successful shots and enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.
