Master the art of touch: no more long comeback putts

Arrange 40 balls into 10 piles with 4 balls in each pile. Set the piles in two lines that cross each other near the green. The two lines should be 6 yards apart. Each pile in a line is 2 yards from the next pile.

Pick 3 target flags on the green. Space the targets 6 feet apart in a line or triangle so each one can be aimed at.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots, in 3 sets of 12 shots. For each set, aim all 12 shots at one of the target flags (Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 3).

Start at any pile and try to hit the ball so it lands inside a 10-foot circle around the chosen target. Do this for 12 shots, then move to the next target and do it again, until all 36 shots are done.

Use different piles as you like for variety, but always set up the same way for each shot.

Count each shot that stops inside the 10-foot circle as a success.

After all shots, count total successes and enter score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Put 40 balls into 8 lines with 5 balls in each line. Lines should be on grass, 1 to 10 yards/meters from the green and 5 to 30 yards/meters from the hole. Balls in each line should be about 1 yard/meter apart.

Make 3 landing zones on the edge of the green. Use sticks or string to mark each zone. Zones should be in a straight line and 6 feet (2 meters) apart.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots using the balls. Split these into 3 groups of 12 shots.

For the first 12 shots, aim at the first landing zone. Use any of the 8 lines, hitting all 5 balls in a line, then go to another line until 12 shots are done.

For the next 12 shots, aim at the second landing zone. Hit full lines of 5 balls until you have 12 shots.

For the last 12 shots, aim at the third landing zone. Hit full lines of 5 balls until 12 shots are done. Count each ball that lands and stays in the chosen landing zone as a success, and add up total successful shots out of 36 attempts in the app.

Make two lines of 18 balls each, one foot apart, next to the green, in an L-shape.

Put 3 markers at the edge of the green, 6 feet apart, to make 3 landing zones in a row.

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

Switch between ball lines. For each zone, hit 3 shots from one line, then 3 shots from the other, until all 12 shots per zone are done.

Each time a ball stops in the right zone, count it as a successful shot.

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

Place two parallel lines of balls beside the green. Each line has 18 balls spaced 1 foot apart. The lines are 5 to 10 yards apart.

On the green, mark 9 stop zones using tees, string, or buckets. Arrange the zones in 3 rows of 3, spaced evenly.

Hit 36 bump-n-run shots. Divide them into 9 groups of 4 shots.

Hit 4 shots from one ball line toward Stop Zone

Try to stop each ball in that zone.

Switch to the other ball line and hit 4 shots toward Stop Zone

Keep switching ball lines and hit 4 shots at each stop zone in order (Zone 1 to Zone 9).

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

Add total successful stops and enter the score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Set up 10 piles of balls with 4 balls in each pile.

Make 3 landing zones on the green, 6 feet apart in a straight line.

Hit 36 shots, with 12 shots at each landing zone.

Start from any pile and try to land 12 balls in the first landing zone.

After 12 shots, aim 12 shots at the second zone, then 12 at the third zone.

Count each ball that stays in the correct zone as a success.

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

Place 10 piles of balls in two lines that cross like a plus sign. Each line has 5 piles, 3 yards/meters apart.

The piles should be 1 to 10 yards/meters from the green and 5 to 30 yards/meters from the hole.

Mark 9 stop zones on the green in a 3x3 grid, spaced to cover different parts.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots, divided into 9 groups of 4 shots.

For each group, pick a stop zone and hit 4 shots from any piles.

A shot is successful if it stops in the target stop zone.

Repeat until 4 shots have been aimed at each stop zone.

Count how many shots stopped inside their target zones. Enter your total out of 36 attempts.

Set up 9 piles of 4 balls each, spread between 1 and 10 yards from the green and 5 to 30 yards from the hole.

Mark 9 stop zones on the green using tees, string, or small buckets.

Do 36 bump-and-run shots, 4 shots at each of the 9 stop zones.

From any pile, hit 4 shots to the first stop zone.

Do the same for the other stop zones, always 4 shots per zone, using the original ball setup.

Count shots that stop inside the right stop zone.

Add up how many shots were successful, and enter this number 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.
