Avoid Three-Putts

Scatter 36 balls into 8 piles of about 4 or 5 balls each on grass between 5 and 30 yards or meters from the hole.

Mark two circles on the green around the hole: a small one with a 6-foot (2-meter) radius and a bigger one with a 15-foot (5-meter) radius.

Hit 36 chip shots, split into two groups of

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

For the last 18 shots, try to land the ball inside the area between the small and big circle (6- to 15-foot radius).

Take turns hitting shots from different piles for variety.

Count how many balls stop in the right circle for each group.

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

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.

Put 36 balls into 6 piles of 6 balls on the grass, between 5 and 30 yards from the hole.

Place 3 flags or targets on the green, 6 feet apart in a line.

Split the 36 balls into 3 groups of 12 shots.

Hit the first 12 balls to the first flag and try to stop each ball within 10 feet of it.

Hit the next 12 balls to the second flag, trying to stop them within 10 feet.

Hit the last 12 balls to the third flag, again aiming to stop within 10 feet.

Switch which pile you use each time to practice different distances and grass.

Count every ball that stops within 10 feet of its flag as a successful shot.

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

Make 10 piles of 4 balls each, in two lines of 5 piles.

Put piles on grass, 5–30 yards from the hole, lines 5–10 yards apart, piles in each line 2 yards apart.

On the green, mark three landing zones in a straight line, 6 feet apart.

Hit 36 chip shots, 12 at each landing zone.

Hit from different piles for each shot. Do 12 shots into the first zone, then 12 into the second, then 12 into the third.

Count shots that land fully in the target zone.

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

Pick a spot in the rough, on an uphill slope, 5–30 yards from the hole.

Put a target at the hole.

Hit 18 chip shots uphill, trying to stop the ball close to the hole.

Move to a downhill spot in the rough, also 5–30 yards from the hole.

Hit 18 chip shots downhill at the same target.

Every 4 shots, check the results and adjust if needed.

Count a success for every ball that finishes close to the hole (like within 3 feet).

Use the same setup for every shot.

After 36 shots, add up your total successes. Enter score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Scatter 40 balls into 8 lines of 5 balls each, spaced 1 yard or meter apart, placed anywhere from 5 to 30 yards from the hole.

On the green, make two circles around the hole: one with a 6-foot (2-meter) radius, and one with a 15-foot (5-meter) radius, using string or tees.

Chip 36 balls during the test, divided into 3 sets of 12 balls.

Chip the first 12 balls, trying to make them land inside the small circle.

Chip the next 12 balls, trying to make them land inside the big circle but outside the small circle.

Chip the last 12 balls, trying to make them land anywhere inside the big circle.

Start from any line and move around as needed, but use only 36 balls.

Count each ball that stops where it is supposed to for each set.

Enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Make two groups of 18 balls; one for balls above feet, one for balls below feet.

Put 3 targets in a straight line on the green, about 6 feet apart.

Hit 36 chip shots total: 18 with balls above feet, 18 with balls below feet.

Split each set of 18 shots into three groups of

Each group of 6 goes to a different target.

With balls above feet, hit 6 shots to each target, keeping ball position the same.

With balls below feet, do the same: 6 shots to each target.

Count any shot that stops within 3 feet of the target as a success.

Count how many successful shots you had. Enter your score out of 36.

Make two crossing lines with 18 balls in each line.

Put the balls 1 foot (30 cm) apart on grass, 5 to 20 yards/meters from the hole.

Place 2 flags on the green. The flags should be 5 to 10 yards/meters apart.

Hit 18 balls from the first line. Try to land each ball within 10 feet (3 meters) of the first flag.

Move to the second line. Hit 18 balls trying to land each within 10 feet (3 meters) of the second flag.

Count how many balls stop inside the 10-foot (3-meter) circle near each flag. Enter the score in the app out of 36 attempts.

Arrange 40 balls into 10 piles with 4 balls each in two lines of 5 piles.

Set the two lines 6 yards apart and each pile 3 yards apart.

Place the piles anywhere on grass or slope, 5 to 30 yards from the hole, not on the green.

Place 3 target flags 8 feet apart on the green to make 3 target zones.

Hit 36 chip shots in 3 groups of 12 shots.

For the first 12 shots, aim to land the ball within 10 feet of the first flag.

For the next 12 shots, aim for the second flag’s zone.

For the final 12 shots, aim for the third flag’s zone.

Alternate which pile you shoot from, but always start from the same ball spot for each shot.

Count each ball stopping within 10 feet of the target as a success and enter score in the app, out of 36 attempts.
