Up-and-down contest: how many can you save in a row?

Make 2 piles of 18 balls each, one uphill and one downhill, 30–60 yards from the hole.

Mark 3 target zones on the green: close (within 3 feet), medium (3 to 6 feet), far (6 to 10 feet) from the hole.

Hit 36 pitches in total, using both piles and aiming at all zones.

From the uphill pile, hit 3 shots at each zone (close, medium, far), for 9 shots.

From the downhill pile, repeat: 3 shots at each zone, for 9 shots.

Do steps 4 and 5 again, using both piles, until each slope has 18 shots (6 at each zone).

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

When finished, count successes and enter the number out of 36 attempts in the app.

Split 36 shots into two groups of 18 shots: one group for uphill, one group for downhill, both on the fairway.

Mark three target zones on the green at 30, 45, and 60 yards from the hole.

For each slope, hit 6 shots at each zone (6 at 30 yards, 6 at 45 yards, 6 at 60 yards).

Do not change the ball setup during the drill.

Finish all 18 shots on the uphill slope first, then do all 18 shots on the downhill slope.

A shot counts only if it lands and stops inside the zone you aimed for.

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

Find a rough area with a slope where the ball is above your feet, 30 to 40 yards from the hole.

Place three targets in a line on the green, about 5 feet apart.

Hit 36 pitch shots: 18 with the ball above your feet, 18 with it below your feet.

For each slope, hit 6 shots at each target.

Hit 6 balls at the first target, 6 at the second, 6 at the third, with the ball above your feet.

Switch to the slope where the ball is below your feet and do the same.

Try to land each ball close and stopped near each target for a success.

Count how many balls stopped inside the target zones and enter the number out of 36 attempts.

Set up 3 targets on the green or fringe, in a straight line, 6 feet apart.

Place 3 piles of 12 golf balls each, 30 to 60 yards away in deep rough.

From the first pile, hit 12 shots at the first target.

From the second pile, hit 12 shots at the second target.

From the third pile, hit 12 shots at the third target.

Use the same setup for all shots.

Count each ball that lands in the target as a success.

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

Make 4 piles of 9 balls each, with the piles 30–60 yards from the hole on different ground.

On the green, mark out a 15-foot circle around the hole and divide the circle into 4 equal parts.

Hit 9 shots from a pile to try and stop the ball in the first part of the circle.

Move to another pile and hit 9 shots for the second part.

Repeat for the third and fourth parts, from any pile.

Count each ball that stops in the right part as a success.

Enter number of successes in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Find a rough, sloped area near the green where golf balls can sit above or below foot level.

Place two piles of 18 balls each: one pile on a slope above foot level, one pile below foot level, both 30-40 yards from the hole.

Mark three zones on the green in a line, 6 feet apart. These show where to land and stop the ball.

Hit 18 shots from above your feet and 18 shots from below your feet.

From above your feet, hit 6 shots at each zone in order.

From below your feet, hit 6 shots at each zone in order.

Count the shots that land and stop in the correct zone.

Use the same stance and ball position each time.

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

Set up 10 piles of balls in two lines that cross each other, with each pile about 3 yards/meters apart.

Place the piles 30 to 60 yards/meters from the hole on similar grass.

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

Take 36 shots: 18 try to land in the small circle, 18 try to land in the outer circle but not in the small circle.

Start with any pile and hit 18 shots for the small circle.

For the next 18 shots, try to land in the outer circle but not in the small circle.

Count a shot as a success if it lands in the circle you are aiming for.

After each shot, pick a different pile at random to hit from.

Count how many successful shots you made for each circle out of 36 attempts and enter your score in the app.

Make 4 piles of 9 balls each, with piles placed randomly 30–60 yards from the hole.

Mark 4 quadrants on the green around the hole using string or tees, each about 9 feet wide.

Hit 36 pitch shots, 9 to each quadrant.

From any pile, hit 9 balls trying to stop them in the first quadrant.

Move to a new pile and hit 9 balls to the second quadrant. Repeat for all quadrants.

Count balls that stop inside the target quadrant.

Count total balls in the correct quadrant and enter the number out of 36 attempts in the app.

Pick two spots on the fairway that are 30 to 60 yards from the hole.

Put three targets on the green, spaced at least 6 feet apart.

Hit 18 pitch shots from the first spot and 18 pitch shots from the second spot.

From each spot, hit 6 shots to each target.

Line up and aim at each target before hitting.

Count every shot that lands close to the target and stops there as a success.

After all 36 shots, record how many were successful out of 36 in the app.
