Turn Tough Lies into Easy Pars

Set up two rows of 20 golf balls each, 5 yards apart, on sloped rough near the green. One row is on uphill, one on downhill. Place rows 5–30 yards from the hole.

Take 36 shots total: 18 from uphill row, 18 from downhill row.

On the uphill row, hit every third ball until you take 18 shots.

On the downhill row, do the same: hit every third ball until you take 18 shots.

Only balls that land and stop in a 6-foot wide target area, 5–15 feet from the hole, count as a success. Same target for both rows.

Count all balls that stop in the target area.

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 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.

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.
