Diagram for Bump-n-Run | Fairway | Uphill/Downhill
1

Set up two lines of 18 golf balls each on a sloped fairway near the green: one line on the uphill slope, one line on the downhill slope. Balls should be spaced 5 yards apart, between 5 and 30 yards from the hole.

2

Place 3 target zones on the green in a row, 6 feet apart. Call them Zone 1 (closest), Zone 2 (middle), and Zone 3 (farthest).

3

Hit 36 total bump-and-run shots: 18 from the uphill line, 18 from the downhill line.

4

From the uphill line, hit 6 shots to each zone (6 to Zone 1, 6 to Zone 2, 6 to Zone 3). Always hit every third ball, skipping two balls between shots.

5

For the downhill line, repeat the process: 6 shots to each zone, using every third ball.

6

Count a success each time a ball stops inside the intended target zone.

7

When all 36 shots are done, record how many balls landed in the correct zone, out of 36 attempts, in the app.

6

Hit one ball from each pile. Keep moving around the piles any way until all 36 shots are done using the right target for each group.
