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.

Place 18 balls on the uphill slope and 18 balls on the downhill slope between 5 and 30 yards from the hole.

Set up 3 targets on the green, spaced evenly in a 10-foot wide area, labeled Target A, Target B, and Target C.

Hit 18 shots from the uphill slope and 18 shots from the downhill slope, for a total of 36 shots.

For each slope, hit 6 shots at Target A, then 6 shots at Target B, then 6 shots at Target C.

Keep the ball setup the same and do not move from your spot on the slope while hitting each group of shots.

Count each shot that lands and stops in the target zone as a success.

After all 36 shots, count and enter the number of successful shots in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Arrange 40 balls into 10 piles of 4 balls each. Place the piles in two parallel lines, 5 to 10 yards apart, with each pile in a line about 2 yards apart.

On the green, mark two target zones: an inner circle with a 6-foot radius and an outer circle with a 15-foot radius.

Hit 36 shots: 18 to the inner circle, 18 to the outer circle.

Hit shots from any pile, switch between piles and lines.

Count a shot as a success if it stops in the target zone.

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

Put 36 golf balls into 2 piles of 18 balls each. One pile goes next to the edge of the green, and the other pile goes 5 yards/meters from the edge.

Mark 3 target zones on the green in a line. Each zone is about 4 feet wide, and the zones are 4 feet apart.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots total. Aim 12 shots for each target zone, one zone at a time.

Start with the pile closest to the green. Hit 12 shots at Zone 1, then 6 shots at Zone

Go to the pile 5 yards/meters away. Hit 6 more shots at Zone 2, then 12 shots at Zone

Count each ball that lands and stops inside the correct zone as a success.

Add up the number of successful shots out of 36 attempts 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.

Place 18 balls in a row on the fairway. Place another 18 balls in a row 5 yards away from the first row.

Label one row “Above Feet” and the other row “Below Feet” according to the slope.

Divide each row into 3 zones by distance: Zone 1 (5–13 yards), Zone 2 (14–21 yards), Zone 3 (22–30 yards), with 6 balls in each zone.

Hit all 36 balls: start with all balls in Zone 1, then all balls in Zone 2, then all balls in Zone

Take turns hitting every third ball from one row, then switch to the other row and do the same.

Try to stop each ball as close as possible to the hole.

Count each ball that stops within 3 feet of the hole as a success.

When finished with all 36 shots, record the number of successful shots out of 36 in the app.

Arrange 10 piles of balls in two lines, with 5 piles in each line. Lines are 3 yards/meters apart; piles are 4 yards/meters apart in each line.

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

On the green, make two target circles with string or tees: an inner circle with a 6-foot/2-meter radius, and an outer circle with a 15-foot/5-meter radius.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots: 18 shots at the inner circle, 18 shots at the outer circle.

Pick a ball pile and hit a bump-and-run shot to the target circle.

After 18 shots at one circle, switch and do 18 shots at the other circle.

Count every shot that stops inside the target circle as a success.

Add up your successful shots out of 36 in the app.

Get 36 golf balls and split into 2 groups of 18 balls each.

Put one group of 18 balls on the uphill slope, close to the green.

Put the second group of 18 balls on the downhill slope, about 5 yards from the green.

On the green, set up 3 target zones in a line, about 6 feet apart.

From the uphill pile, hit 6 shots at each target zone (first at Zone 1, then Zone 2, then Zone 3).

From the downhill pile, hit 6 shots at each zone in the same order.

Ball counts as a success if it stays in the chosen target zone.

Count how many shots landed in the target zones out of 36, and enter the score in the app.

Take 40 balls and make 10 piles with 4 balls each. Put the piles into 2 lines of 5 piles, spaced 5 to 10 yards/meters apart.

Place the piles on grass, each 1 to 10 yards/meters from the green and 5 to 30 yards/meters from the hole.

On the green, use string or tees to make a circle about 6 feet (2 meters) wide. Mark 4 equal parts in the circle.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots. Make 9 shots for each of the 4 circle parts.

Start from any pile, aiming for the first circle part. After 9 shots, go to the second part, then the third, then the fourth.

Change piles as wanted to practice from different spots, but keep piles the same.

Count a shot as success if it stops in the right part of the circle.

After all 36 shots, add the number of successful shots and enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.
