Thread Needle: Narrow Landing Zone

Set up 4 rows of balls. Each row has 9 balls, 1 foot apart.

Space the rows 5 yards apart on grass, between 5 and 30 yards from the hole.

Put 3 targets by the hole: A at 12 o'clock, B at 4 o'clock, C at 8 o'clock, each 3 feet from the hole.

First 12 shots go to Target A, next 12 to Target B, last 12 to Target C.

From each row, chip the ball to try to stop it close to the chosen target. Ball setup does not change.

After 12 shots at one target, switch to the next target. Repeat until all 36 shots are finished.

Each ball that stops within 2 feet of the target is a success.

Arrange 36 balls in 2 lines of 18 each to form an L shape.

Keep each ball 1 foot apart in each line. Keep 5-10 yards between the two lines.

Place two circles around the hole on the green: one with a 6-foot radius, and one with a 15-foot radius.

From 5–30 yards away, chip 18 balls from the first line, aiming for the circles.

Chip the other 18 balls from the second line, aiming for the circles.

Alternate hitting 3 to 5 shots between the two lines.

Shots inside the small circle = full success. Shots inside the big circle only = partial success.

Count how many balls stopped in each circle and get your score. Enter your total successful shots out of 36 attempts.

Set up 10 piles of 4 balls each in two rows (5 piles per row), spaced 2 yards/meters apart. Put the rows 5 to 10 yards/meters apart and place the piles 5 to 30 yards/meters from the hole.

Mark 9 stop zones on the green using buckets, string, or tees. Space them out so each zone is different.

Prepare to hit 36 chip shots, divided into 9 groups of 4 shots. Each group targets a different stop zone.

From any pile, hit 4 shots at the first stop zone. Move to the next stop zone and hit 4 shots at it. Keep going until you’ve aimed 4 shots at each of the 9 zones.

Mark 4 sections (quadrants) in a circle of 6 feet or 2 meters radius around the hole on the green using string or tees.

Hit 36 chip shots total, 9 shots into each quadrant.

Start at any pile and chip balls to land in the first quadrant. After 9 shots, switch to the next quadrant.
